Now that Belle Epoque is over, it's time to watch Afternoon of a Faun, a documentary about Tanaquil Le Clerq, the dancer who inspired Robbins and Balanchine before falling victim to polio. The dancing is incredible. The scenes of Robbins' Afternoon of a Faun with Jacques d'Amboise with Tanni, as she is called, is just beautiful.

This documentary is fascinating. She was a remarkable woman.

Training is another matter. I think those four meetings coming up are training.

I hope they are beneficial.

Finally back from a looooooong day.  Eleven o'clock meeting was fine, then right to a lunch meeting, then to auditions.  About half the "confirmed" people were no-shows.  Our pianist actually knew one of the fellows and texted him.  His excuse?  An emergency dental procedure.  That's fine, but how do you have the chutzpah of not e-mailing to say you have the emergency? 

Anyway, we're still without a leading man and trying to figure out what to do about it.

Everyone who read/sang today was so wrong for what I want and I certainly am not going to allow the show's one big ballad to be sung poorly.

This year I got my 30 years in, so I'm getting recognized along with everyone else celebrating a five-year anniversary.  And lunch and lunch time is paid, so there's that. ;)

Well, I have officially been recognized for 30 Years of TRL Service:

We had our All Staff Training Retreat and the first part was a three-hour session on questions about the library...what are things that the library does well, what can be improved, things like that.

I guess it was to help with the 2019-2023 long range plan.

The food was build-your-own sandwiches, a couple of different kinds of soup, salads, and desserts.
