Chairperson Meow October 28, 2015 Share October 28, 2015 Yeah. I wouldn't give my place up for a weekish. Maybe offer him the air mattress? Thanksgiving is a family holiday (and food lol). If he wants alone time, call La Quinta. 1 Link to comment
BestestAuntEver October 28, 2015 Share October 28, 2015 I wouldn't give up my place for 5 days. Maybe a night or 2 at the end but definitely not 5 days. I'd buy a new mattress for my mom's first. I love my creature comforts. Link to comment
sacrebleu October 29, 2015 Share October 29, 2015 Five days is a pretty big sacrifice. And I say this as someone who gave up her bed for that long, back in 2012 to her parents. That freak storm hit the Mid-Atlantic (the Derecho) and my parents lost power. It was still unbearably hot, and I was the only child who still had air conditioning, so I took them in. On the plus side, I still use that as an excuse to pawn responsibility off on my other siblings. Derecho, five days with mom and dad in my one bedroom apartment. The only benefit might be that it might be useful later on? Does he live somewhere you'd want to visit? Can you cash in this favor? (God, I sound opportunistic...) But really, I'm leaning toward a strong no. Link to comment
Sake614 October 30, 2015 Share October 30, 2015 They live in Denver and I could absolutely stay with them but I haven't in years.I much prefer staying at a hotel so I can come and go at my leisure. As for the air mattress, that's what I offered originally but with his back problems, he needs a real bed. I finally relented and said they could stay at my place, but I know I'm going to be miserable. It's not the air mattress, but you know, there's a reason I moved out of my mother's house 28 years ago lol! I love her and I see her every weekend, talk to her several times a day. But staying in the same house for almost a whole week might just drive me mad. Unfortunately money is tight for them, and there's no such thing as an inexpensive hotel in NYC. Link to comment
WendyCR72 November 1, 2015 Share November 1, 2015 I have never really watched OLTL, but I am familiar with this actor from soap mags, but I just read that Nathaniel Marston was in a horrific car crash on Friday and it isn't certain he'll make it. Per his mother, if he does, he'll be paralyzed from the neck down (much like Christopher Reeve) and will need a respirator to breathe. How utterly awful for her and him. :-( 1 Link to comment
tvgoddess November 2, 2015 Share November 2, 2015 I read an article with that information (it was on Twitter from some bloggers and actors in daytime), and it was just all so sad. That must have been beyond horrific. I wasn't really watching a lot of OLTL at the time, but I did see a little bit of him and Marcie, they were really sweet together. I feel awful for his mother too. Just terrible. 1 Link to comment
Sake614 November 3, 2015 Share November 3, 2015 I was never a fan of Nate Marston, but this is just awful news! I did read late last night that he was back in surgery and the doctors are hopeful he may be able to breathe on his own and regain the use of his upper body. And with a LOT of physical therapy and over the course of a few years, he *might* walk again. I'm sending good thoughts to him and his family. I truly hope everything works out for him.

BestestAuntEver November 25, 2015 Share November 25, 2015 I'm sad to hear that David Canary passed away. I love DC. He was amazing as Adam and Stewart Chandler. Each character was different. I also bought the love the brothers shared. Image my shock at watching a western and seeing Adam Chandler on screen. He and Tristan were my school girl crushes. Hell, I still crush on them. DC's hair...Silver fox indeed. 2 Link to comment

I later drifted away from it cause it became unwatchable but at the height of his era, it was the one of the best. An amazing spell-binding charismatic actor, sad to say goodbye. Link to comment

GHScorpiosRule December 3, 2015 Share December 3, 2015 UPDATE: As of two hours ago, I completed my chemo/infusion treatment! Last infustion of Herceptin which I had to take for a year. Blood work is good, hemoglobin levels excellent, and I am in REMISSION. Now, it's just chillin', relaxin' until Spring when I get the final reconstruction. Thanks for all your suppport and prayers! Now I can concentrate on getting rid of this infernal insomnia I've been wracked with since I lost my job...and to secure a new and better one. My oncologist suggested yoga, which the infusion center offers for free on a weekly basis. So I'll do that as well as at home, since stress is the reason for my insomnia. 13 Link to comment
dubbel zout December 3, 2015 Share December 3, 2015 (edited) I can't "like" your post enough, GHSR! Yay for remission!!!!!! Yoga is a great idea for stress release. I do light stretching every day—working on my particular tight spots—and it always relaxes me. Edited December 3, 2015 by dubbel zout 1 Link to comment
GHScorpiosRule December 4, 2015 Share December 4, 2015 Thanks y'all. It certainly helps that I've got the gorgeousness of Pierce Brosnan as Remington Steele to help me get through the nights. Damn but it is downright criminal and unfair for a man to be as good looking as he is and never looks bad. Man was born to wear a tux. Icing on the cake is watching Stepanie Zimbalist as Laura Holt, who was and continues to be my hero and the standard for a strong woman/role model. Plus, no one, NO ONE rocks the Fedora like she does. What? 1 Link to comment
WendyCR72 December 4, 2015 Share December 4, 2015 GHSR, that is one of the best Christmas presents you can ever get! Congratulations! Relax, allow the yoga to do its magic, and I'm sure the job situation will fall into place! :-) Link to comment
testardo December 4, 2015 Share December 4, 2015 really great to hear you are on the mend. I did Yoga for a while. it is relaxing. had to stop because downward dog took to much on my knees.

ulkis December 22, 2015 Share December 22, 2015 All this Star Wars talk turns me into Grumpy Cat (I've never seen any of the movies, and have never had a real burning desire to, so the publicity machine on the new movie has been...exhausting for me, to say the least). Frankly, I would compare NV and RC to the infamous Star Wars Holiday Special, because like George Lucas wishing he could forget about said special, we wish we could forget about NV and RC. That's a pretty smooth reference for one who isn't in to Star Wars, nice job! :) I feel ya, and I really like Star Wars. Worry not, it'll pass when the next superhero movie comes out or something. Of course, it'll pop back up when the next one comes up but at least there's a bit of a reprieve. Link to comment

Thanks! Years later in an interview, one of the creators, Arthur Rankin Jr., said that she had psychological issues, I think because her owner had grown too old for her and given her up.

These were all passed down by his older cousin. He wants nothing more than to see the new movie. Now that Disney owns the rights. Everything under the sun has the Star Wars logo .Hope you are all now resting up after the holiday dinner. Link to comment
Francie December 31, 2015 Share December 31, 2015 OK, I found a new obsession. I just finished Making of a Murderer on Netflix, and I can't stop thinking about it. If you like gripping crime dramas, wow this'll hook you in. It'll send you through a roller coaster ride that makes getting angry at Sonny getting away with everything pale in comparison .

ulkis January 4, 2016 Share January 4, 2016 I doubt it's any weirder than usual. A lot of them are probably good friends with the significant other of their on-screen love interest. Laura Wright I think is pals with Maurice's wife, Bradford and Brandon are pals, etc etc. On NCIS: LA, in real life, the actress is married to her on-screen love interest's brother, so she is having on-camera make out sessions with her brother-in-law. And her husband is a stunt double for his brother on the show too. Now that, I often wonder how awkward is that situation, heh. Eeeewwww!!!!!!! That's all kinds of wrong! hee. I know, right? To be fair, she met both of them at the same time, and they definitely set up the actor as a love interest right away, but still . . . awkward city, I'm thinking. Link to comment
