DH Richard took the photo.  I'm in the foreground, surrounded, left to right by DRs MBarnum, Ben, Jose, Singdaw, MusicGuy, and Elmore.

Before we ordered, DR MBarnum told me that I'd probably need Tums after the meal, but I didn't.  Must have been the soothing Australian ice cream that kept me from getting indigestion.

I do, however, have severe allergy symptoms and on our way to meet DR Elmore at Lincoln Center will stop at a drug store for Claritin.  I think this clinches it that we will NOT try to sit on the stage for Inherit the Wind - they sure don't want me up there sniffling, sneezing, and coughing  :P

DR FJL - I replied to your earlier message, but to reiterate:  DH Richard and I will be there tomorrow between whatever matinee we see and Curtains.  Thanks for the lovely invitation!

DR Edi - yes, I did have a manicure Wednesday in Crystal City.  It has lasted through several showers and shampoos and lots of luggage wrestling.  A home manicure would never have lasted for me like this.  Now on my list - a pedicure!

Since I got less sleep than usual last night, I'm heading down now to lie down a bit to see if I can catch a nap before cleaning up to do my usual Friday errands.

It's Friday -- finally:

An end to a curiously short, but intensely tiring week.

A week of extremes, actually.

And I look forward to a break from chaos, disarray, moodiness, petulance and the occasional sick-making gushiness.

Good morning, all! I slept quite well making plans on how to explain the reasons for an anchor and a burlap bag when I showed DR MBarnum the 79th Street Boat Basin.  I was up at 8:10 or so, bathed, dragged my guest off the fire escape and forced him to clean up.  I was going to post but he got all crazy and insisted on dining at once so we went over to the 82nd Street Cafe and had a little breakfast.  I was coaxing him into a view of the Hudson River when DR MusicGuy called him about lunch and my plans fell through on Mikey seeing more of the Hudson than he'd planned.

We walked to the Boat Basin and saw the boats and Mikey headed off to the Virgin - always living in the past - Megastore.  I am about to leave for Lincoln Center and the NYPL.

DR Ginny, thanks for posting the photo. Everyone with cameras keeps talking about photos - Barnum's is here in the apartment - but we were late last night with the idea of a photo and missed having DR Rodzinski who abandoned us for a performance at Joe's Pub in the shot

I'm empathizing with Bruce on his aching toes.

I've done similar things, myself, and it's extremely painful....and it will take a while before the aching stops, unfortunately.  Those toes are very tender.

If you have sandals, BK....I think you'll have to wear them for a while.

I received another Kevin McKidd movie in the mail yesterday -- "Dog Soldiers" -- plus a Miss Marple (Joan Hickson) Classic Mystery Collection (9 two-hour movies).

Yet....I was unable to contemplate watching anything that would take more than a short while to watch.  I did manage another episode of "Ghost Whisperer" before the sandman carried me off.  It was very intense and well-acted.  I'm quite fond of this show!

We are supposed to be in the grips of a "cooling" trend, but last night was one of the least comfortable nights -- temperature-wise -- I've had this summer.

It was very cool outside, but my condo was warm and there wasn't even an occasional whisper of a breeze to blow through my window.  

My curtains were as unmoved as Larry Moore would "claim" to be if he should see MBarnum's head hit the iron railing after his pillow fell off the fire escape.

;)

Larry...since you're free during lunch...and since MBarnum's camera is in your apartment...why not surprise the young tyke with some unexpected photos?

So ironic in light of today's notes!

BK, foot healing vibes to you. Sorry you'll have to take a break from jogging for a bit...  :-\

Greetings from the 19th floor of the Flamingo Hotel, Las Vegas, NV!  The temperature is only expected to be 107 today, but due to be up to 110 by Sunday.  Boy, this place has certainly changed in the last 35 years.  This room was obviously designed by Queer Eye for the Straight Guy!

Tonight is WSMA Night here in Vegas.  I can't wait to see the new Phantom.

Here's a wonderful way to start the weekend: watch Ray Bethell, Multiple World Champion kite flyer, flying 3 kites to "Flower Duet" by Delibes. This is a thing of beauty.

Slept another couple of hours, which was good.  I'm walking, so that's good news, and while the toes are obviously sore, I see to be able to bend them easily, so that's good.  I'm not looking forward to removing these bandages and looking at them, though, but I will a bit later.

Meanwhile, I continue to have no responses from anyone at NYMF - I gather this is SOP for them, but it's annoying given that I'm about a month behind every other show in terms of paperwork and things to do.  I just have a few questions and I've now asked them several times to two different e-mail addresses and left messages for two people last night and nada.
