A little song I wrote for Craig..

Ah hemm.....mimi mi mi mi....

By the time you get to Phoenix
You'll find a great job

They'll be thrilled to hire a vegan with your skills.......

Yes, DR John G, I was very pleased to get the offer from my friend. She says she always gets 2 tickets for the dress rehearsal and usually can't find anyone to use them.

Wish I could see DR The Vixter in THE WEDDING SINGER!

My parents went to the "grandparents performance" this morning -- its essentially an invited dress rehearsal

my Mom couldn't find her on the stage - we forgot to mention that she is wearing a "big hair' super curly auburn wig for most of the show

sorta like this

That's lovely, Vixmom. Simply lovely. The only thing that could make it better is if she wore leopard spots too.

except when she is the old lady ... then her hair looks something like this

Well, as planned, I spent most of my first day here in Chicago at the Art Institute of Chicago. I paid my now ritual visit to the Caillebotte and Seurat paintings, and then I spent the next four(!) hours going through the Renzo Piano Modern Wing. When I was here two years ago, the new Modern Wing opened the day after I left, so... WOW! There's a LOT of Art in that new wing. A LOT. It got to the point where I would turn a corner and just start laughing in disbelief at just how much Art was in there. It kept going and going and going... I didn't even make it to any of the main galleries in the main building. So, I might go back tomorrow or Monday and remedy that.

However, what I did see today was amazing. The new building is beautiful, and it's nice to see how the AIC re-arranged and re-structured their 20th Century collection. There were also a couple of special exhibits that were quite thought-provoking and entertaining. There is also a walkway from the Modern Wing right into Millennium Park - and that was a nice way to "escape" for lunch.

Thank you, DR Vixmom. I talked to the campus social worker today about my aunt. She said she's lucid, but not really "connecting the dots." That's a perfect description.

It wasn't too windy today, but it was cold. It is cold. I did pack some sweaters, however, I may have to make a stop into ~~Marshall Field's~~Macy's to buy a pair of gloves.

Somehow I failed to mention that tonight was opening night for The Wedding Singer at the Vixter's school - she plays assorted wedding guests, one of the "Losers at Table 9" , an old lady in the shopping mall and the Cyndi Lauper impersonator.

Hmm... A high school doing The Wedding Singer?

Now that's what comes of Men and Women dancing!

Today at work, we had a chili cook-off. There were nine different versions of chili. I brought my sister's vegan chili, someone brought chili that had cashews, and someone else even brought chili with lamb. Most were pretty good and a lot of chili got eaten. Some of my sister's was left over and I'm taking that home so I'll have food for the next several days.

Do you have a medicine cabinet stocked with Tums and Bean-O too?

And we just passed Gary, IN, so we should be arriving in Chicago in about 30 minutes, just 20-ish minutes late.

If you are at the train station there is a wonderful bakery amongst the shops. It is the second location for the bakery Bryan got his wedding desserts from, all of which came from the entremets menu. The were so incredibly delicious I had to make a trip to the bakery last time I was in Chicago. My favorite was a chocolate cake I can't recall the name of. Fortunately Bryan & Kate told me what to get before I went there.

DR Jane - Since I will be down near the Chicago French Market tomorrow, I shall have to give Vanille Patisserie a try.

I was surprised --- they are usually quite conservative ... and apparently there was a small amount of last minute censorship imposed after the morning show - a couple of lines apparently were not said this evening - I wonder if the actors will "slip" on the closing night

You know, I saw the tour of "The Wedding Singer." I don't remember any of it. I didn't remember it at the time I saw it, either.

Hard to believe, but the IMHO disgusting creeps Ann and Mike of All that Chat supported my "cyber-bullies/cyber-stalkers" by suspending me from their chat board for 30 days when I just tried to discuss the theater-writing-related aspects of the cyber-stalking and cyber-bullying issue.

"TBAdmin" describes them perfectly. The two of them are IMHO emblematic of a diseased administrative mind

Those leopard-spotted leggings were fabulous, by the way.
