I was to go caroling at a nursing home with BL JR tomorrow, but obviously am not. Can't be getting them sick.

We're having major drama with Plus1's grandmother and it looks like he's going to have to make a quick trip to ATL.

Oh dear. Here's to a speady recovery. Sorry to hear about Plus1's family emergency too. :(

Hope you get well soon; I've never gotten the pneumonia vaccination but probably should ...

Also sorry to hear about last-minute trips to ATL.

LOL! Mr.Brit said exactly the same thing! Lots of Moms and girls and a few harried men in suits doing exactly what you said!! fortunately, I had emailed him the web link and he had printed out exactly what he needed!!

Agree - an absolute racket - and an expensive one at that! But, it's a once in a lifetime purchase. (Unless, of course, you are me - and put the doll in the washing machine and then the dryer - and the hair melts into a matted lump of god knows what ...:eek::eek::eek::eek: I don't think MissTeenBrit has ever forgiven me for melting her AG doll .....:rolleyes:)

Oh, no! Feel better soon, baglady. Hope all works out OK with the Grandma.

The nutcracker is on chanel 12. I have to make a comment on ballet based on the observations of this. Are we really to believe these guys have such monster packages based on the thing the covers it up? Also, is it necessary that the dudes wear such form fitting tights that it goes up the bum crack and forms around their bum cheeks as if they aren't wearing anything??? :eek:

icurhere2 Dec 21, 2009 7:51 pm

OK - I'm not going to Channel 12.

It was in HD too :eek:
Now I see what's going on, it's the San Fransico Ballet. That may explain the TV director's actions of only wide shots of the women and closer-up of the guys. (sorry but that is what's being broadcast)

google is making me :mad::mad::mad::mad:. My wife got an HTC Eris two weeks ago and they created a gmail account for it in store, yet she continued to use her yahoo email as primary. At some point syncing failed and are locked out of the account and can't unlock it online. Their online form to unlock it sucks since the account wasn't used there isn't any data to populate to get it unlocked (things like labels, or frequently emailed contacts, etc). SOB's. :mad::mad::mad::mad:

Did you know that I graduated from AU's Washington College of Law? Through shoddy paperwork, they've now sent me communications as if I've graduated from four different colleges (College of Arts and Sciences, Kogod School of Business, School of International Studies, Washington College of Law) over the years ...

The syndicated Simpsons episode had a portion that was a take-off of the final scene of "Six Feet Under", which was such a wonderful ending for the show, but the Simpsons made it totally hilarious. Probably nobody got it...

Lisa tells me I have seen all of these episodes, but she is WRONG.

That's why they have the doll hospital. You either bring the doll into the store in NYC or ship it to Wisconsin, and the doll comes back with a hospital gown, a bracelet, a balloon, and a new head. We have done this three or four times already :eek:

Just off the phone with LH about PRG flights. Learned that they dont pre-assign inter Europe flights (its a European thing). Also they outsource their phone agents. Had a nice young man with an Aussie accent. may have to call back and double check my booking ;)

Lisa just :rolleyes: at Trustguy.
