It went remarkably well, exceeding our goals and expectations. There are pictures here.


Thank you

I need to remember: never start watching a film when tired. I can sometimes stay up just enough to make it seem like I'm awake, but I don't recall a thing from the film.

They have her on derramax.

They gave us a trial of it a few weeks ago, and it really seemed to work. We had about a week though inbetween the trial and when we officially "put her on it", and since then it hasn't seemed to do squat.

I honestly don't think we're at the putting down stage.

For instance, this morning, when I got her up to go outside, she laid down in a couple of spots and got herself back up again.

But then she shat herself again last night.

Errr. Don't know what to do.

Yeah, we've had a lot of pet death in our history. Cats, ferrets, dogs, you name it. And they DO let you know. I don't feel like shes saying that yet.

And I think there's something else too. I think it might be one of her fatty tumours strating to impact her spine/hips/major nerves.
Something like that.

And we get to see our fav doctor this morning.

There was too many people around last time, but for our next thing--heroin for everyone.

"Life is sweet" is wonderful and I don't think you have mentioned it before, but then my memory is just as bad and you might have!!.... is this how two goldfish would talk ?!

I'm not sure. For what it's worth, I'm armed with her phone number, but, seeing as I'm not sure of what the schedule will be Saturday morning to Sunday morning, I couldn't make plans for sure.

Apples to Apples is the game i speak of

i go to a unitarian church so it was mainly hanging out ... did a little everyone can drum thing with my frame drum/bohrun

With you there.

There are times I think that Regan and I would be total hermits if we could be. What I like best about the weekend is being home, doing stuff in and about our house, seeing no one and talking to nobody but her.

Sounds awful, and I don't mean that i don't like to go out and do things, cuz i do, but I love our quiet weekends alone at home.

It is truly wonderful to have a spouse that understands and appreciates that. Of course, if they didn't- would they be your spouse?

And yes, as usual, we are on the same page.

Hi Shelly! Sorry so long to respond, I've been staying off the computer a bit! It doesn't surprise me that Roger Ebert liked Santa Sangre, he is one of my idols! I don't always agree with his reviews, but I think he's a very fair-minded reviewer and there's no denying his love of film. I agree with you completely about SS, it was definitely beautiful and horrific at the same time, and I loved the ending too, where you realize he's been all alone through all of it and his reconnection with Alma is so great.
As for Brick, I was glad I saw it and it had some really excellent scenes in it, but overall I don't think it worked as well as it should have. I was worried that the bar had been set too high for me for "Southern California high school teen film noir" by Veronica Mars (my absolute favorite show on tv right now), but Mike was in agreement. Veronica Mars kicks ass though and if you had Netflix I would STRONGLY encourage you to rent it. I think you might enjoy Brick, but I also think you would feel the same way Mike and I did. It's one of those films that had the potential to be really awesome, but fell short.
How was dinner last night? Did you guys have fun? I hope you took photos that you will then share with the rest of us!
Hope you have a great day! Any special plans for Easter? My mom came up and Henna'ed my hair and then we planted some petunias and now I'm going to go watch Lost & Gilmore Girls that I taped during the week.
Talk to you later!

Oh my god, I love Pho Republique.

Yeah, it's a pain in the ass to get around the city. Everything changes on a weekly basis, new roads, new tunnels. Very weird. I haven't driven my car since last November, it's just too frustrating.

Hey, we and I finally got Semjaza to put some more of his material up. Yay! And I doubt very much that there will be an open bar! They're both in they're late 20's trying to save money, probably buy a house nowhere near here cause that's impossible unless you have a money tree in your backyard! So, I'll be paying for the booze which is no problem really cause I weigh 100 lbs. and my friends will attest to my getting trashed off of two strong melon balls a year or two ago. It was ugly. It was at an Italian club where I had to tell the guy at the bar how to make a melon ball. He hald the vodka over the glass for what seemed like an eternity! Then a lil bit of Midori and o.j. After two of these ,I was carried out of the club after puking in the bathroom and out into my car where two of my friends had to take me homein my own car and have my older sis drive them back,....eeeew, bad memories. I have done nothing like that since. It was Oct. 04. Yuck. Nothing goes right for me ever. Got any hot brothers?

Thanks, though I'm not sure about "gifted".

I took a leaf out of your book yesterday and spent the whole day cycling through a forest. Hooray for un-needed bouts of physical exertion! Ouch I'm saddle-sore today though- I'm out of practice!

I like the idea of love poems to objects.

Peter Ackroyd has written a biography of London. I like this similarly.

I love that shit!!! I definitely need to get to New Orleans one day! What is/are Nutria? Did you see a lot of alligators on that tour?
I REALLY relax my vegan/veggie standards when on vacation. I had to reevaluate after eating only french fries, fruit, baguettes and Italian food for a week in Paris.
How was your weekend? Mine was pretty busy, it went by awfully quick. Oh, and I watched The Squid & The Whale on Friday night, but I didn't really care for it that much. That could have been the PMS though.
I'm going to go see Slither tomorrow night, and then Mike and I are going for dinner at Wayward, they are having a fund raiser for political prisoners and we get to enjoy a 5 course Mexican meal and help out all at the same time.
Oh, and I bought our tickets yesterday for the festival, so we are all set!

That is exactly what you should remember about a baseball game.

All quite ok, Shel. As you once said, you *are* allowed to have a life outside SG.

Just make sure that you get proper sleep! Nos da! (Welsh for "good night")

great author!!!!! my fav,,, start with his first book "Florida Roadkill" then follow the publishing order from there. do not start with the story order, you have to start with the publishing order
