We watched A CHRISTMAS STORY (LIVE) last night. The logistics of staging that production were amazing.

We enjoyed the production...with 2 exceptions:

(1) Whoever that was who did the opening number, we couldn't understand the lyrics. Don't know if that was her fault, or the fact that the music was too loud.

(2) Matthew Broderick is a terrific performer, but except for the very end, there was nothing for him to sing. What a waste of talent.

Weren't there problems with the opening number of GREASE LiVE!  After the opening number of that show, the sound seemed to have gotten a lot better.

We haven't watched last night's show yet.

I like the CNN ad for their new New Years Eve team, where Anderson Cooper tells Andy Cohen, "You're the life of the party, I'm the conscience."

We drove through Durban on our way to a wildlife sanctuary.   I was pleased we were able to see it, driving through was good enough.  There are many beautiful old buildings the English built back in their day.

If there are any descendants of the English still living in the city it was not apparent to me.

Back from dermatologist -- with no issues, but I'll have a few blotches for a while due to some routine freeze-offs.

Afterwards, had a Sausage and Egg McMuffin breakfast, and I'm finishing that coffee now.  I've got to get organized and go out again to gas up the car and do a bit of shopping.

Annabelle's climbing again.  Last night she nearly killed Thatch when she dropped 5-6 empty CD cases pnyp the chair where he was playing from the shelf she was sitting on near the ceiling.  Earlier in the day she climbed to the top of the bookshelf next to my writing table and dropped a stack of books onto the floor.  When I got up this morning, my two caps I sit on top of a CD case when I'm not wearing one of them were on the floor.

This climbing means she's feeling much better and getting back to her old self, so I'm really happy.

Very glad to hear they're both getting over their little ailments.  But I'm frankly surprised Annabelle hadn't rearranged the whole apartment long before this.

Second supervisor in about a year is leaving my department. Not sure I’m happy about that.

Mark this as the week that the team behind A Christmas Story and The Greatest Showman derails.

I think she hates housework.  But she's a huge admirer of the movie Third Man On The Mountain.

Thatch's eyes are both ope today but there is still a lot of crusty gunk around them.  I need to make an appointment for the vet to see him this week

Have the reviews for their work on "Greatest Showman" been disappointing?

My fave McDonalds meal!  I indulge very infrequently, but I love them.

I thought the preview was completely underwhelming.

DR ChasSmith, Annabelle now regards you as the official court photographer, and she requests your presence soon when we know she and her brother have a clean bill of health.  She will not sit for a formal portrait with a pink eye patient.

Haven’t read a full review but critics are taking shots against it in other pieces.
