On an incredibly random yet cheerful sort of Thank-God-it's-Friday note:
I've never really liked the movie High Society—I've always thought of it as kind of an inferior take on The Philadelphia Story, and I love that movie, and everyone in it. But whenever I notice High Society is going to be on TV, I always make sure to catch at least this scene—here two (very famous, unmistakable) guys stumble across each other in the library of a grand house during a big party that they're both trying to escape. I love the song, and their take on it just amuses me to death.
So here's hoping all of you have a "swellegant" weekend. LOL. As for me, I'm going to fly in a little plane to go visit my sister, and rest assured we'll be trying very hard not to collide with Mars on our way there.
There is a very good chance I'll be flying out of town this weekend as well. A less than joyous reason, but nothing stops your heart as much as hearing your mom say "Don't worry, she's ok". Thud, heart in throat. And of course, tons of worry.
Anyhow, it's been a very stressful few weeks...can we skip ahead some??
Hope you have a safe trip and have lots of fun!!

Hang in there, Haven! I think sometimes life likes to bunch our trials close together That way we get a breather between them. Because of course we can't have a trial-free life. It's a theory, anyway. :) Have a safe trip, regardless!!

Hope you both had good flights and all... I don't go too many places and right now that's fine! My DH's dad, well if we go anywhere in the near future it'll be for his funeral... I MUCH prefer the weddings that we've gone to this year!
This past weekend we celebrated Thanksgiving.. nice to have something before you all do! Lots of turkey, family and fun... not that any are related you know... (really, I don't have too many turkey relatives! *grin*)
Julie I loved that clip... and every single time I hear Bing Crosby's voice, wow... I could listen to that man croon for HOURS! And holy cow! but does Frank look like a kid... sheesh. Have to say I've never seen that show... nor THE PHILADELPHIA STORY.. methinks my education may be lacking, oui?
Hope you all have a great week!

Well it turns out I wasn't able to leave this past weekend, but instead will be flying out this weekend.
I'll be home around Nov. 5th!
(((Kathy))) Hopefully that's a trip you won't have to take!
My trip is equally stressful.

Hello girls! My flight was short and uneventful (the best kind of flight!!) and the trip was a good one. I forgot that Canadian Thanksgiving preceded the American one, Kathy!! I'm glad it was fun. I'm actually kind of looking forward to Thanksgiving. And you know, there must be something in the stars...I know so many people right now who are facing big family issues. It's all part of life, I suppose. But not the easiest part, by far, obviously. :) So my thoughts are with you guys, and I'll hope for the best and stay philosophical about whatever arises. Keep me posted.
Here's some news: I got my POP ARCs!! So Kathy, I want to send one to you, and Haven, you, too. I'm packing them up and sending them off to various readers, book groups, etc. I have your addresses, but do you mind sending them to me offline so I can verify them before I get them in the mail? Can't wait to hear what you think!!!
