YESTERDDAY'S FILMING....I HOPE ERIC IS GOOD AT EDITING... WE WERE AT TI ALL DAY LONG-- HE WAS A PRO....AND VERY EASY TO WORK WITH... KITTY IS ALSO A TRUE PROFESIONAL.. GREAT AT BRINGING THE WHOLE THING BACK IN FOCUS AMID GUINNEA HENS CHATTER, DOGS BARKING AND HELICOPTERS OVERHEAD SHE WOULD GET OUT THAT LIST OF HERS.. AND WE WOULD SETTLE...
SHOULD BE A TERRIFFIC FILM-- NOW WE HAVE TO FIGURE OUT WHAT TO DO WITH IT.....
***
BIT OF NONSENSE.... FROM ERIC AND KITTY'S PROFESIONALISM.....USEFUL TERMS TO KNOW FROM THE "INDUSTRY"....
THE KRAFT TABLE-- CAN BE ANYTHING FROM AN ACTUAL TABLE TO A TAILGATE.. THERE IS ALWAYS ONE SOMEWHERE AT EVERY "SHOOT"-- IT HAS ---ORANGES -- ASPIRINS- SNACK BARS -- CANDY (M&M's) , BOTTLED WATER...AND FIRST AID... BASIC STUFF.
SOMETIMES THE KRAFT TABLE IS IN THE GREEN ROOM...
THE GREEN ROOM IS SOMEPLACE WHERE ACTORS SIT UNTIL THEY ARE DUE ON STAGE -- IT CAN BE AN ACTUAL ROOM-- OR A SIGN NAILED TO A TREE.
EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE- LIKE ON THE TODAY ( OR TONIGHT) SHOW I HAVE HEARD SOMEONE REFER TO " THE GREEN ROOM" WHICH MUST SOUND STRANGE IF YOU DON'T KNOW THE TERM...
***
THE " WAITING ROOM " HAS NO PIZZAZ - TO CALL IT THE GREEN ROOM IMPLYS A CERTAIN SOPHISTICATION.
WE CURRENTLY HAVE NO GREEN ROOM... BUT WE SURE HAVE A KRAFT TABLE... ( AKA CANDY SHELF)-- GOTTA GET IT LABELED....

I MANAGED TO TAKE "MY 4 " DOGS TO THE TOPSFIELD FAIRGROUNDS YESTERDAY-- LETS SEE IF I CAN CNONTINUE-
***
I USED TO TAKE EACH LITTER THERE AS SOON AS I HAD ANY KIND OF CONTROL- WITH THEIR MOMS-- WE'D ALL PILE IN THE CAR TO GO AND COME HOME...... IT IS A HUGE FIELD - THE PARKING AREA-- PARTIALLY FLOODED WITH A FOOT OF WATER...-- RIGHT NEXT TO RT 1 ( MAINE TO FLORIDA) WITH NO FENCE BETWEEN...
IT WAS WATSON'S FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH RUNNING BLINDLY AROUND AND SUDDENLY BEING IN A FOOT OF WATER-- SUPER EXPERIENCE FOR HIM... HE STOPPED WITH A PERFECT HS ( HOLY SHOOT) EXPRESSION... HE RAN A LITTLE MORE CAREFULLY AFTER THAT... BUT WAS NOT THE FIRST TO JUMP BAK IN THE CAR.. I THOUGHT I MIGHT HAVE TO GET IN MY SELF AND LET HIM RUN A ROUND AND WONDER WHY HE WAS ALL ALONE... THAT MAY HAPPEN YET.. HE WASN'T SPOON FED TO LEARN TO PAY ATTENTION....
*****
I CAN GO THERE TODAY NAD PICK UP SOME ALFLFA CUBES. FOR MO.... SHE DOES NEED MORE GROCERIES...... THEY WILL HAVV IT . AT THE FEED STORE ACROPSS RT 1... I HAVE NOT HAD ANY EXPERIENCE WITH THOSE CUBES-- KELLY TELLS ME SHE ALWAYS MOISTENS HER'S---SHE WORRIES ABOUT CHOKING-- I NEVER HEARD THAT FOR A COMPLICATION... I ALWAYS HEARD ALFALFA WAS COW TYPE HAY AND COULD CAUSE COLIC... I KNOW WE ARE TO INTRODUCE IT SLOW.Y--
I HAD VISIONS OF HAND FEEDING HER A CUBE AS PEOPLE WALKED BY... THAT IS COMPLICATED IF WE HAVE TO WET IT FIRST... FRY PANS WILL HELP.. WE WILL MANAGE...
*****
PAM IS FEELING BETTER ... I JUST HEAR HER BELLOW "KNOCK IT OFF" - JUST THINK .. WHEN SHE STARTED HERE SHE WAS SO QUIETLY SOFT SPOKEN-- AS WAS LINDA--- BUTTER WOULDN'T MELT.... NOW THEY BOTH SOUND LIKE SAILORS AT SEA....
I CAN NOT IMMAGINE WHEERE THEY GOT THAT....
*****

6 SEEDS TO THE INCH.... ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS TO DO.
SECOND ONLY TO CHURNING UP TH MANURE PILE WITH THE BACK HOE...
*****
JUST WHEN YOU THINK THE NEWS CAN'T GET ANY MORE BIZZARRE, ... IT DOES....
I KEEP THINKING OF THOSE 3 RADIO PEOPLE AT THE "BRAIN FAIR" WHO'S JOB IT WAS TO MAKE CONVERSATION FOR 4 HOURS SO TEHY END UP SAYING THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER-- TIL THE NEXT TIDBIT COMES ALONG...
