Harold Ramis Died

Well, Harold died in the early hours of the morning.
I can't think of a project we didn't work on together.
He and Lorne were roommates for a while and when I was called to come to New York when Chris died he was there...yawning...but was there.
He wrote down some of the best lines I ever came up with and they are out there for people to hear.  He was a tower of strength to me and to Lorne.

He had been sick for a while and I think he knew it was his time, just after Sochi Olympics.
I don't feel sad.  In fact, I feel like he did what you are supposed to do...leave them laughing.  He had a full and wonderful career.

Rest in Peace my very dear friend.

Thanksgiving Day 2013

Thank you God.
Thank you to my family, my friends, my workmates for all I have been given.
Thank you God for my food today and everyday.  Saying Grace.

Thank you for giving me the knowledge and the wisdom I have needed to survive and live.
The realization that I have a daughter to love, to share with, family and friends that care about me.

Thank you to Corey for letting me live and rent here so I have a home to live in and to build a life.
Thank you for the computer so I may have access to information, able to learn, see my loved ones.
Thank you Lorne for being my companion all these years and for the years to come.

Thank you to all for helping me heal from all my injuries.  Let me live.  Let me have peace and love and joy in my life.

New Era

Tonight was Jimmy Fallon's first show on the Tonight Show.  Will Smith and U2 came along for the ride.  They played on Top of the Rock and then acoustically on stage. 

I just reread my last post.  I am very insightful.  Laugh.
For the last while I've been going through hell.  Physically, emotionally, mourning all the pain and suffering I have been through.

I had to stand up for myself at work after some layoffs and then a restructuring plan where I got the sh*t end of the stick again by being removed from the Shoe Department and into what is called Replenishment.  I said no.  When asked what I wanted I did not hesitate to say I wanted to finally be on the Customer Service Desk (CSD) where I belong.  My body cannot take the hauling and lifting and walking any more!  They agreed.  However, we will see what happens.

Seth moves with Fred to the 12:30 spot after Jimmy's show.  It has all changed.  Lorne is now the Executive Producer of all three shows.  Next year will be the 40th Season of SNL.  We have made it this far.

I'm not sure what all this means.  I haven't felt well for a while and pray I heal.  I just needed to write it down so I remember.  I have so many memories of the show and my time there.  I think I have to change from being a survivor to a former survivor so I can start living.
