Haines His Way

bk - love the cover.  In what year does your book take place?  I really like your style of writing when you are able to talk about LA in the 50's/60's, the details are fantastic.

DR Edi ~ Your dream and story about your cat was moving -- not that I had a dream about it, but experienced a similar day when our cat Honey was dying and we had made the decision to let him go (my DH thought he was a girl -- and yes he's a doctor! -- when we got him as a kitten) -- I was loving on him before I had to take him to the vet to be put down while DH was at work and Cason was at school.  An emotional day for sure cause he was just the best cat!

I need valium and prozac ASAP.

It's cereal time here.

Pet lovers will appreciate this:  I have had dreams about my cats.  My last was a couple of weeks before Miss Vickie passed on.  My dearly departed cat Dickens, for whom I adopted Miss Vickie as a companion, came to me in a dream.  He was walking around the condo, scoping things out.  Vickie was asleep in her bed.  I uttered a shout of "Dickens! Is that you?"  Dickens walked over to me and jumped into my lap.  He put his paws on my chest and looked me in the eyes.  I stroked him and he purred.  I could tell he had a message for me.  I sensed, and then asked him, if he were "here" to get Vickie!  He vanished, and I woke up.

Oh, Ron, your dream left me in tears.

It's cereal time here.

Any favorite Down Under brands -- or the usual US of A stuff?

OHHHHHHHHHH....I thought DR DtM was asking about LURID dreamng.

Nevermind.

Well, in my case, it's more often than not the same thing.

Here are the clips I just sent to my mother.  Hope she can figure out to open them, especially with her dial-up Internet connection  

Cabaret

Funny Girl

I watched the Cabaret clip with Martin Ross and Anita Gillette.  I wouldn't have thought that they needed to change some lyrics...instead of "each and every one a virgin," having to substitute "each and everyone, innocent" and instead of "as a matter of fact, she rented by the hour" was changed to "as a matter of fact, she changed her heart each hour."

There is another name for those dreams.

You naughty minx!

My choreographer and I were joking around and trying to think of words that will work in the songs of Suburb since our director always deletes cuss words (in this case the playwright and lyricist post permission to do that at the front of the book).  Actually, having them in the songs doesn't really fit the storyline (and so far I haven't found any in the dialogue, just the songs), but I guess they thought that makes it contemporary and realistic -- but singing them makes them more jolting and noticeable than saying them and the story is not edgy or jolting, rather nice and cute so ... let's see, what word when singing it can substitute for that more jolting version of friggin' -- ahhh, the challenges of community theatre in a small town

..guess we could always just go wtih friggin' -- although that still is not a suitable sub for some folks since they claim they still know exactly what you're getting at ...

I think they have Candied Kangoroo Loops there!
