Eileen's giving me a hard time about watching crappy made-for-TV movies based on crappy supermarket novels, when instead I could be spending that time updating the blog...... so here I am!
In my defense, I did read the book. But maybe I should have been blogging then, too. It was a terrible waste of time.
Some new and exciting things have happened over the past few days. The best of all being that we got another parking ticket! Still haven't gotten in sync with that incredibly lame rule about no parking on Mondays 7 - Noon so that the Lewisburg police have something to do while the plowers are not out plowing. But it feels good knowing that our hard earned parking violation dollars are going to a good cause. A few more weeks like this, and Lewisburg will be in the market for a shiny new PlowKing 5000 for the parade collection.
I interviewed and gave a little audition for the Bucknell piano faculty today, in hopes of scoring some accompanying gigs, and I think it went pretty well. Although you never can tell with those piano prof types. They always have a good poker face. In any case, it sounds like they might want me to work with some of their opera singers, so here's hoping I don't get stuck with any warbling window-breakers.
Still waiting to start bringing down the house at St. Paul's Episcopal. My official first day will be the second Sunday of February, but I will be accompanying the choir on one piece this coming Sunday... just for fun I guess.
Eileen is still feeling a bit a-flap in the breeze since she's still not settled on a research project, but there were some promising conversations with Dr. Dearborn today, so we're looking forward to a new tack soon. The upside is that she likes to watch a lot of horribly entertaining TV when she's a-flappin, and I'm always happy to partake. I don't know what bad TV shows are going to do without us when things pick up again...
Well that's about all for now, since I have to wake up at 5:30 am open at Zelda's. In fact, it must be that time, since I can hear Eileen's skull resonating with her electric toothbrush in the bathroom.

You all need to have some sort of weekly alarm/notification go off to remind you to move the car! I'll bet you guys can figure out a way to make your computer do that. :)
ReplyDeleteDid the two of you finally break down and buy a TV? I'm shocked.
ReplyDeleteNope! But you can watch some shows online!
ReplyDeleteHow was the Last Templar? I read that crappy book on the flight back from Sicily becuase it was one of the only books in English at the airport. Can the made-for-TV movie have been worse??
ReplyDeleteSo. Much. Worse. I was shocked to find myself defending the book while Eileen was complaining about how terrible the show was.
ReplyDeleteThanks for making me laugh, George. This was an excellent blog addition. I especially hooted at the electric toothbrushing description!
