Mary’s pix

29 more days. Pitchers and catchers.
The sweaters are coming along fine. Sleeve #1 on sweater #2 well under way. Although I haven’t been plying the needles the last couple of days, they are coming along nicely. All I have to do after the sleeves […]
NYIP
Tuesday January 15, 2008
On line courses, at home study, learn yourself study. All have sounded very lame to me in the past. No way can you get what you should out of something like that. "Learn at your own pace" when maybe what most of us need is assignment deadlines, taskmasters pushing deadlines on […]
Not Much Going On
Saturday January 12, 2008
Someone asked me at 8A this morning what I was going to do with my day. I didn’t have an answer and that has bothered me all day. It hasn’t been a wasted day, have gotten a lot of "stuff" done but somehow that falls short of what I think I should […]
A Number

How can something as simple as a word change your mood instantly? My doctor just called to tell me that my cholesterol is 151 and my HDL is 81. Made my day. Thank you , Lipitor.

Happy Birthday, LMK!
Last night Liz and I went to see "Come Back, Little Sheba". What a wonderful play and two such strong performances in the husband and wife roles. William Inge made a career of writing plays about the sad human condition. This is basically the story of a strong […]

Why do we challenge ourselves? What is it that drives us?
I spent time last night with three young women who all auditioned for parts in a play with a small number of roles. These three women are best of friends and yet are competing for roles in the same play. They […]
"Stuff"
January 6, 2007
Feast of the Three Kings. Little Christmas. When I was a kid the Christmas manger was much more prominent in my home than it has been as an adult. It had its own table and I can remember the figures so well. One of us always hid the baby Jesus until Christmas morning […]
Caucuses
January 4, 2008
First of all, doesn’t it seem like it should be CAUCI? Four years of Latin weren’t wasted on me.
I am embarrassed to say that I have never paid attention to caucuses before. This is a pretty fascinating process. The Democrats all meet in a room and if you want Elton John to […]
Creepy
Last week I flew out of Chicago to Saginaw, MI. We were all on the plane and the pilot came on telling us we would be delayed because the headcount on the plane was one more than their roster. At that point three thugs in suits came on the plane and stood in the aisle. […]
