Just Questions: Ho Ho Hold the Door, We're Going To...

[Dsnygirl]

I especially like the full orchestra version of IBFC. We got to see the TransSiberian live show in Raleigh two years ago and it was fantiastic.

We saw it two years ago, as well, and LOVED it... I'd never seen or heard an electric violin played, and I think I fell in love. We had floor seating and I think by the end of the show, my heart was just beating in sync with the music, it was that loud... but awesome. I have a hard time playing it softly at home now, though!!

And by the way, I think there'll be a visit to your post from Rhonda... but I'll save her the pleasure...

How's everyone's afternoon going?

[Tink&Goofy]

Yes....can you pick me up?

Sure! Why don't we meet somewhere in the middle - oh, lets say North Dakota?

Why did Santa Claus need new underwear???

I'm almost afraid to ask, but Why?

Kind of a lazy day - taking a break from cleaning. I now have a very full lap - one laptop and two kitties who demand to be there too! Gotta get the hair trimmed this afternoon - and get some highlights removed, and others put in!

How's the baking going Blythe?

Anyone getting snow today? I can't get any here, so I'm living it through you guys!!

I thought I'd heard of it all but how do you get highlights taken out?

[Tink&Goofy]

Yep! You know, those pesky ones that you would just pull, but pretty soon that won't work anymore???

Seriously..I have no clue what your talking about here. Is this some new thing? Like lowlights were?

[drummerboy]

How was last night's show, Ken?

Theater's dark until Friday. Sunday's show went well though. Looks like I can leave my name on the program after all.

If I pulled all those out, I'd have no hair left.

Can anybody lend me a question to put in that other post before Rhonda finds out? Ah heck, I'll just do it for her.

I think she's referring to the the silver highlights that come with advancing years.....

Is your theatre haunted? Do you leave a light on in it?

[Tink&Goofy]

Silver? Yeah, OK - kind of Christmassy little sparkle. Maybe I should keep them until after Christmas?
Advancing years? Wow, I feel old! Well, mine came the day DD13 was born, and they seem to multiply daily...

[drummerboy]

Well, people do report a 'presence' there from time to time, but 'dark' is a theater term for 'closed', as in "all the talk-show studios are dark until the writers come back."

Speaking of presence, my office, that's built on the site of a burned-down funeral home, sometimes gets 'visitors', especailly one that smokes a pipe.

Has anybody peeled Christine off the ceiling yet? Has anybody had word from Jasper yet?

oh now I get it. (do we have goodness I'm not with it smilie?) See I thought those just got covered up not removed. And I've had them forever (or since my 20's anyway) so didn't think much of it.

Ken why would you build on a funeral home? that's just creepy.

[Christine]

Christine - what do you do about celebrating Christmas? Do you take things with you - or wait until you get back? When does Santa come?

Olivia is going to open the gifts under the tree from US on the 23rd (day before we leave) so we don't have to haul all that down there.

Santa will come on Christmas Eve (doesn't he always?). She has written him a note letting him know where she will be. We will even get him some cookies from Main Street Bakery to leave out for him! She asked for a Nintendo DS, so I think he'll have no problem getting that and some candy/goodies in her stocking!

I haven't packed a stitch of clothing or toiletries, but I DID go to the store today and bought 1 -15" wreath and 2 -8" wreaths and made a Mickey Mouse wreath for our hotel door! I also got some lit garland and suction cups to hang in the window! Priorities, you know!

Why did Santa Claus need new underwear???

Since we are birds of a feather when it comes to jokes, I'm going to guess: Because it had ho-ho-holes???

Good eye!

[Dsnygirl]

How's the baking going Blythe?

Honestly? Not so good... but I'm hoping to fix that after I log off. I'm going to blame it on a different kitchen this year - my stollen's not rising and my chocolate's not melting right!

You go, girl!! Now, that's MY kind of packing!! Sigh... only 355 days left for me... I think...

You can't play them low can you? I love my music loud!!! Gilles was shocked when he discovered my taste of rock music!!!

Afternoon went great, for being with the other managers.I ate WAY too much food. My supervisor made us fudge as part of our gift, anyone want any?

Yep! You know, those pesky ones that you would just pull, but pretty soon that won't work anymore???

I just get those silvery little pesks covered up!!!! I'm debating whether or not to give that up, I think by now I've earned them!! Right, Pogo?

Speaking of presence, my office, that's built on the site of a burned-down funeral home, sometimes gets 'visitors', especailly one that smokes a pipe.

Gilles' office is next to a cemetary and they have had a few "visitor". One of the stories he told me is one day they were discussing the "visitors" and one staff member said there isn't such thing and something on a shelf next to him flew off the shelf and toward the person...needless to say, that person now believes.

[drummerboy]

Ken why would you build on a funeral home? that's just creepy.

Well, since the funeral home already burned down and the owners got indicted for being the cause of the burning down, the lot came cheap. And it's in what has become a prime location in town. So far the 'visitors' have been friendly though.

We had our office Christmas lunch today. It was a nice pleasant couple of hours for everybody to sit and chat and not talk business.

Are we ready for Wednesday?

[trackbarroness]

I had a really good day yesterday and the day before. I might have eaten way to much over the last two days.
Has anyone else eaten at 1900 park fair or at Ohana's? If so did anyone try to hug the mad hatter?

Happy Birthday Sandy!
I have eaten at 1900 Park Fare, but no, I did not try to hug the mad hatter. Why? What happens if you do?

Ellen, where are you?

[CaptJackSparrow]

Remember me?

Glad to hear you're doing well...aside from the initial recovery, how long will you be out of work? And any chance for a golf tie-in by the time potential summer mini-meets roll around? (can you tell, I'm in 4-months-from-spring-denial)

Well look who got some puter time ! Good to see you here.

Did you have to tie Blythe up to get it ?

Remember she's trying to bake!!!

Is everyone ready for Christmas? Christine are you packed yet?


Ken, did you send out the steamer trunk to Christine's? Gilles won't be there to change the label. I'm pretty sure he'd crawl in the trunk with us!!!!
