General CHit Chat and foolishness.......

How is everyone tonight?

My first husband's foster brother, and his wife, are in town. I took them to dinner. It was good to see them. But..............

I am a miserable failure at saving people by working on their chests.

Are you following the "correct procedure" for this type of "treatment"????

First.. is the injury actually in the "chest area" ???? Not a deal-breaker as long as you take her out to dinner.....AND...administer copious amounts of alcoholic beverages...
This serves to "relax" the patient, as well as "relieve" the pain.. more is usually better...use your own judgement here, but closely "monitor" your "patient's condition" ....Unless, of course... You're not too proud to do a drunk chick.

We are discussing your "treatment"

I know. But..................................................................................

But that shouldn't keep me from trying again.

Yup...........................................

But what?!?!?!!?

For the benefit of those of us who are "tragically slow" ... Would you be so kind as to be a little less subtle with your innuendo....
An illustration or two (with captions) would be much appreciated.....

Can't sleep. Did some ELA cleaning and some Walther polishing on the buffing wheel. Now I'm watching the wonder dog sleep like this except in my office when he is supposed to be on guard duty. weirdo.

I cant sleep like usual, watching Hannibal, season 1 on Amazon Prime. Amazingly disturbing and entertaining series.

I've been on a breaking bad marathon! Never watched it til now and it is addicting!

Breaking Bad. One of my favorites, aparantly Sir Anthony Hopkins, aka Hannibal, also loved the show so much he wrote a letter to Bryan:

"Dear Mister Cranston.
I wanted to write you this email - so I am contacting you through Jeremy Barber - I take it we are both represented by UTA. Great agency.

I've just finished a marathon of watching "BREAKING BAD" - from episode one of the First Season - to the last eight episodes of the Sixth Season. [Ed note: There are in fact five seasons of Breaking Bad; this might have been wishful thinking.] (I downloaded the last season on AMAZON) A total of two weeks (addictive) viewing.

I have never watched anything like it. Brilliant!

Your performance as Walter White was the best acting I have seen - ever.

I know there is so much smoke blowing and sickening bull.... in this business, and I've sort of lost belief in anything really.

But this work of yours is spectacular - absolutely stunning. What is extraordinary, is the sheer power of everyone in the entire production. What was it? Five or six years in the making? How the producers (yourself being one of them), the writers, directors, cinematographers.... every department - casting etc. managed to keep the discipline and control from beginning to the end is (that over used word) awesome.

From what started as a black comedy, descended into a labyrinth of blood, destruction and hell. It was like a great Jacobean, Shakespearian or Greek Tragedy.

If you ever get a chance to - would you pass on my admiration to everyone - Anna Gunn, Dean Norris, Aaron Paul, Betsy Brandt, R.J. Mitte, Bob Odenkirk, Jonathan Banks, Steven Michael Quezada - everyone - everyone gave master classes of performance ... The list is endless.

Thank you. That kind of work/artistry is rare, and when, once in a while, it occurs, as in this epic work, it restores confidence.

You and all the cast are the best actors I've ever seen.

That may sound like a good lung full of smoke blowing. But it is not. It's almost midnight out here in Malibu, and I felt compelled to write this email.

Congratulations and my deepest respect. You are truly a great, great actor.

Best regards

Tony Hopkins."

Before Christmas our sweety from Oklahoma turned us on to True Blood. That's what we've been distracting ourselves with. If we get two episodes down we consider it a marathon.
Breaking Bad will probably be next, on the far horizon.

Where is everybody? Hardly ever, anyone home.

I'm here. I really haven't felt like myself lately.
I look at the clock, look again ten minutes later and four hours have passed.
Wednesday my friend from OK will be flying in. She will surely lift my spirits.

Plus since ECF went in the toilet it's very difficult to navigate on my phone. I hope they get it fixed this week.

Hi my friend. Sorry to hear you have been feeling funky. Me too. So cool, you have your friend coming!

Been searching for condo's in the city. Trying to plan ahead for when my kid goes off to college and I no longer need to be stranded in suburbia.

Toga Party... Sat. night....condition??? critical, upgraded to stable, but still "touch and go" ..... Toga, toga, toga.. ouch!!! I'll be up and walking again in no time...
Spare me the lecture on "acting my age".... We've already debated that subject... And, I'm perfectly willing to ... "suffer" for a worthy "cause"...
"Cause" you should see my "new bride" in a toga... and I didn't look like a "creepy old dude in a sheet"... much, at all... Hello Ladies!!!...


You knew you'd be sorry for asking.... I don't "disappoint"... and how was your weekend????
