Well, you've read the notes, the notes had staging, and now it is time for you to post until the staged cows come home.

Good morning, all.

A little early. But hey.

Vixmom asked about Do I Hear a Waltz?

I'm going to the closing night performance on Sunday evening this time.

Thursday.

I put out my six bags of clothes for Am Vets. I only go shop there once a year, so i hope I don't go buy any of them back when I go in 2017. That's why I can't give anything to the local Goodwill. I go in and see all my old clothes on the rack.

I was ruthless - if it is a bit small or if I haven't worn it in more than a year, it went in the bag!

The good news is now I can by more stuff!

Very entertaining reading about the SHOW being put together. Blocking vibes for MR BK.

Tonight I am staging the ballroom dance for Little Women. I have decided to use a nice Virginia Reel with a few dollops of mine own.....we only have 51 measures, so it shouldn't take too long.

I have an ensemble of seven girls.....I wanted to add Laurie since he is at the party, and dress three of the girls as boys.....but since some of them are playing boys in the "acting out" of Jo's stories, I was told I would have seven girls....and they will add one girl from the second act......so I have eight girls in ball gowns....which will be something to see.

I think in non-professional theatre, the single most aggravating element one has to deal with is the lack of consistent, total, dependable, cast attendance at rehearsals.

That statement may make the problem sound more prevalent than it actually is. But we have a few really excellent directors in this area who get so fed up with this lack of dedication that they've come pretty damned close to throwing in the towel.

Fortunately (I think), BK's degree of success at this is only dependent on this other idiot director who doesn't seem to get the laying out of a plan, and abiding by it.

It really, really should be Friday. It even looks like a Friday.

Good morning, all! I took a muscle relaxer - no Tylenol with codeine - and went to bed around 11:00. At 1:30 I woke with a throbbing left leg, and about 2:00 I took three extra-strong Tylenol (no codeine) tablets. Around 7:30 the pains came back and I dozed poorly until 8:30, when I figured that was enough.

I had a strange dream about going to the movies with Richard, DR Ginny's husband. After the film, we were debating driving to the airport since we'd missed a flight.

There was another dream before that, but it's no longer making itself known.

DR vixmom, you asked about tickets for Do I Hear A Waltz?. At this point I know absolutely nothing about the production beyond some of the cast. If you enjoyed 1776, I'd say, go for it.

DR JRand65, I have been to the Drama Book Shop once since I stopped working there in 1997,and that was for a BK reading several years ago. I was sorry to hear about their damage, but I have no idea of how things are progressing with repairs.

It's a "finish Moross week," so I must get to work.

First, coffee!

I think that was June 15, 2012 -- a landmark day for me, being the occasion of my first HHW get-together.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #21 on:** April 14, 2016, 06:47:33 AM »

I remember the June 15th date because of a (silly) musical commitment I had to get out of in order to spend that day in the city.

Last night I watched Judi Dench and Maggie Smith in Ladies In Lavender, which had a wonderful cast of actors including Miriam Margolyse and David Warner. Two elderly sisters, one a WW 1 widow and the other a spinster, rescue and take into their home a young man washed ashore near their home on the coast in mid-1930s England.

I had no idea what would happen or where the story would go, but it amused me, kept me interested, and then slugged me with its emotional honesty about age, love, and longing.

TOD: I am not going into this one since i rave about the huge number of idiot self-serving politicians who manipulate, rather than represent, the people they serve on this site.

I had a dream.

I was inside an auditorium with a bunch of people I knew or recognized. There was a man there speaking privately with individuals one at a time.

At some point, the man told those of us he had not spoken with that we could leave and that we should go as far away from the auditorium as possible.

I thought it meant that something odd was going to happen to the people left in the auditorium. I remember seeing those being left behind and they looked comfortable and accepting of whatever was going to happen.

I remember a lady being beside me as I was leaving and we both ran up an embankment which brought us to the shoreline of a large lake. She went to the right and I stayed where I was...anticipating what I do not know. I thought it strange that I heard no explosion or other noise.

I had assumed that the folks in the auditorium were going to make an earthly departure. Then I thought, what if it was the rest of us who left earth.

And then I woke up.

No, I don't usually have such dreams. But it was so vivid and I still remember it.

Today is another day.

Today, I go to the hospital for a Blood Pressure check.

I'm sorry to have to say this, but the added medication has NOT done the trick. My BP last night was horrid.

I'm a little put out that the meds I was taking before all this changing up were getting the job done nicely.

Still, I can be patient.

I have a haircut appointment this afternoon.

I need one dreadfully. It has been six weeks since my last one and I'm ready to get the hair off my ears.

One for the money....
