    Jodie Foster... and I thought she was totally out a few years ago? Hmmm.
    I know how you feel Dar, I never watch "regular" tv anymore these days. I was forced to watch the Oscars last night however. That may be the first time ever that I've seen a whole one. I can do without the whole red carpet part though. Ellen was a great hostess too I thought. I did love the people behind the light screen making shadow pictures with their bodies.
    As for the comment, yeah Knot, I took it as him busting on his character in his new movie coming out.

    Well, made more progress today on upcoming events. WOW. So much to think about and setup ahead of time. Anyway, thanks to my sisters for all their support and guidance. It really means a lot.

    Have a super day and be safe.

    Hi, everybody! Thanks for all the lovely greetings! I've missed you guys, but I seldom sit down at the computer these days, except to pay bills, of course...

    Happy Birthday, CWR! How does one celebrate up in the wilds? Do the Landlord and his Wife lay down their ancient animosity toward human beings and bring by a cake made of ... um... berries and fish? Have a great day, no matter how you celebrate.

    Salsa, I'm glad that the Beeper is hanging in there and being feisty. I first noticed that Isaac was truly sick when he didn't demand dinner last Wednesday. That was his job, to bug me for dinner. When he didn't do it, it was an alarming thing. I think he'd been sick for awhile, and I just didn't see it. I knew he was skinnier and sleeping more, but I figured, well, he's old... In a way, I'm glad I hadn't taken him to the vet sooner. It would have been scary and painful for him, very sad, worrisome, and expensive for me, and it wouldn't have changed the outcome, anyway. As it was, I spent over $600 testing and treating him. After 6 days, it was clear he was worse, much worse. It was time to set him free. I appreciate the loving thoughts from all here...I remembered the posts I'd read about the Rainbow Bridge, and so you all were with me in spirit. I'll attach a picture of Isaac, my little orange guy, and Ariel, his "sister", who's still hanging in there at 17 years old.

    Yeah, the baby factory...we're really more of a distribution center, I suppose As for a seconds store...that'd probably be across the border in Wisconsin (yikes! ducking whatever Dar just threw at me!)

    I cannot believe the tenacity of folks who ride their bikes in this weather in Chicago. We had a snow/sleet storm over the weekend. Sunday morning I nearly wiped out twice, cautiously walking J's dog in my best snow-walking shoes. Heck, the dog even wiped out on the ice one time. How people stay upright on bikes is beyond me. But they do. Lots of cyclists, and not the ones wearing fancy clothes, either. Just jeans, sneakers, whatever. In fact, I'll bet I see ten regular-clothes cyclists to every one "appropriate-winter-riding-gear" rider. I even saw one gal last week, riding in low-cut jeans, who kept trying to pull the back of her jeans up to cover her lower back, which was totally exposed to the below freezing temps and slush flying up from the street! Now that just seemed a bit...well...stupid.

    Ahhhh, they're paging me. Back to work. Love to all! L.

    Lise, he's beautiful. I'm sorry you lost him. But I'm glad you had him.

    What a sweet cat. I'm so sorry, Lise.

    As for the Oscars, I guess if I watched more TV and paid more attention to the media, I'd've known about Travolta's upcoming role in Hairspray. Ahh, the life of a hermit...

    Suze Orman needs to make me RICH!!!!

    I just checked out the only two Suze Orman books at my library. (uh, 'scuse me? but those cover photos are just a little frighteningly intense?) I also put a hold on the one she wrote for the "young, fabulous, and broke." (aka recent graduates who are in debt to their eyeballs)

    Now, if she and her wife can have 27 million dollars to play with, why can't I?

    Suze-baby, ya got until March 19th to make me rich. Then I gotta give the books back to the library!

    Knot,
    Good luck with Suze. If you learn the secrets tell me, please. I read her books some time ago and while many of her ideas were great, I did not have the necessary funds to begin them. I have not read Young, Fabulous, and Broke, but watched her discussing the book on PBS. The crowd she was addressing on average was about 19. Nothing applied, but I did not read the book, so there may have been more realistic goals for those with car, house, medical, insurance and student loans payments. In addition kids to feed, clothe and raise. I have a ton of student loans though, so I had hoped it would help. Maybe you will have much greater success and when you do, please share the tips with me. I have only a few years before I have 3 in college.

    Now I am depressed. Off to make more French Press (which Suze would tel me is not in my budget).

    Have a wonderful day everyone!!
