The preacher's wife is the lead soprano.  She has an affinity for being off key at crucial moments.

It should be fun.

Sounds rather like our concert today. Our pianist/organist is wonderful. Our singers -- not so good. They did like my song, though.

Hello from Cleveland!

Wonder of wonders, the hotel has a computer in the lobby for guests to use.  I've stayed here twice before and they didn't have one.  My drive was smooth and I was here before dark.  Now I'm on my way out to get a sandwich.

I'll try to check in later.

Good afternoon Dear Readers...and it looks like a pretty quiet Sunday here in the Living Room.  Oh, there will be hell to pay....

oh yes, Hell I tell you, if the major Poobah sees such a sparse Living Room even on a Sunday.

I do have (I think) a good pictorial example of the "word of the day" --

and so I offer the following.

This is a picture of "our Ranch" here in Phoenix; and as you can clearly see, for a ranch-style house like this (built in 1948) in was quite common to add a little detail to the lower part of the outside walls by adding BRICOLAGE !           ;)

Well, with a hearty hello to DR Cilla, I have to go get ready for a little bit of evening stuff that I have to do.

Play nice, and put your toys away when you're done.

Well, I need to wrap a few gifts.  I may be seeing DREAMGIRLS tomorrow night with our E&T DR Jose, and I have something trashy for him that isn't our DR MBarnum.  I'd like to get my family's packages into Fed Ex tomorrow morning as well, so that's my evening

And where, I ask, is Karen Murphy?  Will she respond to our requests to join us and stop lurking?  And her E&T son, Cason, from whom I'm waiting news of the partaying after The Brain.

Today, I'm directing traffic on paper and shuffling words and paragraphs across a page in a really truly deperate effort to make sense of Glen MacDonough's libretto for BABES IN TOYLAND!  

Giftwrapping requires no thinking, I think.

Im off to a christmas party at Wattles Mansion (members of Hollywood Heritage only) where I am quite sure I will be cold....

I miss you Larry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pehaps Ill ask Bruce If I can tag along when he goes to NY in Febuary.....

I also spent part of the day ordering gifts online. Anything to procrastinate writing that fershlugganeh report on the BABES libretto.  It's terrible when you know what you want to say but cannot say it.

Paragraphs within paragraphs. new paragraphs that say the same thing.  Oy!

Richard has a rehearsal with the newest synth player tonight and speaks quite highly of him, so I'm sure it will be great.

Gee, sounds like my homework!

I have a speech final tomorrow for which I will be reading Oh, The Places You'll Go by Dr. Suess aloud.

Matt played his solos up an octave in the Entr'Acte, if it gets recorded.
