To answer Tom's question from last night: my washing machine or dryer may not be louder than a TV, but it vibrates a lot more, and that can resonate through the building and be more noticeable and annoying.

I was in a play in which I played several small parts. One part was as a customer in the record store in which one of the leading ladies worked....every time there was a scene in that location, I had to come in and demand that the Hindemith record I ordered be found.....it never was.

I wonder if any DR knows what PLAY it is.......I do.....do you?

Yesterday afternoon, we completed the audio edition of my one person play, CLIFTON WEBB, and uploaded it onto ACX.

It will be about 10-14 (working) days before it becomes available for download.

John Boulanger, the actor who does the role, is terrific.

Druxy · « **Reply #41 on:** May 16, 2019, 08:18:23 AM »

I've also signed somebody to do the audio edition of my play, DICK POWELL.

Just starting on that one.

Thursday morning greetings! So, a crew from a company we've used for years was due early this morning to wash our windows, swap the storm windows for screens, and power wash the exterior of our house. Richard worked hard yesterday setting all the screens by their windows and we both moved stuff to make the windows accessible. I got up early in order to be dressed when the crew arrived, only to get a phone call that they were short-staffed and would not be here today. We are penciled in for next Wednesday - arrrgh!

Richard has already put a couple of them in himself, because our house was getting very stuffy.

So, under those windows, we get to look at the dirty storm windows and have to try not to break them.

Somehow, that reminds me of Dolly's line about Horace's cast register: "It's a little lumpy, but. it rings."

I'm home from the courthouse. I have a hearing scheduled for a week from today at 10:30 to plead my case and bring proof of payment. I decided to go to the Dept. of Aging and apply for a Senior Citizen Rent Reduction (SCRIE) to say fuck you to the landlord. The clerk who scheduled my hearing gave me the old SCRIE address and I walked for blocks to the Dept. of Aging, but SCRIE has moved; I made the trip for nothing but aggravating my leg.

Traffic sucks today. It took a 30 minute taxi ride from the court house to Sixth Ave and 18th Street where I caught the No. 7 bus for an hour-long ride from there to home.

When I got home there was an email from my landlord's legal adviser responding to my email from last night: Please disregard whatever you received. I will let the attorney know you paid.

I sent her back an email saying: Too late! We're going to court.

At this point you're certain to come out of this just fine -- in fact, you're already just fine, given that email response -- but hopefully you'll wind up even better than before, what with taking the offense on the senior thing. Congrats, but of course continued vibes that it all plays out smoothly.
