Did I ever happen to mention just how awesomely cool windrose is? No sooner did she find out about my tumble down the stairs, when there is a FedEx box at my door containing the most exquisite gourmet chocolate from her. She rocks beyond the telling.

I count my blessings that my head is still attached to my neck. After taking a helluva tumble down the stairs yesterday, I'm bruised up like crazy, with an almost perfectly circular large metal bolt-sized cut-out on the bottom of my big toe that looks (and feels) grosser than can be told.

Come 8 o'clock, when the last of the 12 episodes has wrapped up with Ralphie is snug in his bed, and snow cascading outside of his ( Read more... )

We STILL miss you! I looked back on my post of 12/4/06 and really, many of the same feelings hold true about this year's production of A Christmas Carol. There were quite a few changes this 19th year, though.....some of them good, some....well, I'm still digesting them. Thankfully Scrooge is our Scrooge (David Coffee has said that he will play the ( Read more... )

Superb performance of Donnie Darko by the A.R.T. in Cambridge last night. Second time's the charm, since little-puppett and I showed up the day before only to discover that I erred big time and our tickets were for thursday! But good things come to those who wait (or show up on the wrong date). The actors really did an incredible job bringing this complex film ( Read more... )
