The other smart thing I did re the web series was send out a Kritzerland eBlast announcing it, with the link to the channel - as well as announcing the Peter Filicia news.

Good morning, all! I have to be up early to accomplish all I need to get done today. As is typical when I know I need to be out of bed early, I slept quite poorly. I had one really weird dream involving our E&T DR Rodzinski and a bee sting, and the remainder of the night was one in which I was quite restless. I suspect that around 3 pm I will crash for a couple of hours.

At noon, I have to be at Toyland to see if Curtis and I can get the scanner and printer back online and working properly. At some point I need to meet Brent, our Appalachian musical director, and hand him a heap of music. My first agenda this morning is to sketch out this new piece, "The Old Year Now Has Passed Away." I keep thinking there's a number I've missed, so I need to run through the musical sequence again and check it over.

I think that's all of this morning's news.

TOD: I have encountered too many highfalutin words since I've started grad school and many of them are made up in the that Germanic way of pressing a bunch of words together. I discount their very existence and complain to my teachers that the authors are purposefully trying to cover their lack of writing skills by impeding the flow of communication. Since the teachers can't write either, few acknowledge what I'm saying to be true.

Anyway, here's a word from too many classes that I love to hate: epistomological.

I also find the word jejune to be hoot. And, yes, I remember the great Woody Allen routine about it.

Once again, sorry for being E&T for the past few days.  Mom checked into the hospital on Wednesday to finally have her gall bladder removed.  And, of course, her surgery was delayed a day because the anesteasaligist didn't like how her legs were swollen and because he heard "crackles" in her lungs.  So
Mom spent the rest of the day in her hospital bed on a water pill and dealing with the results of that.  Also, neither the cardiologist nor the pulmonary doctor heard any lung "crackles" or saw any evidence of heart failure.  So she had her surgery on Thursday with no problems.  Right now she's enjoying a flounder for lunch--her first real food since Tuesday.

I have to say that all of Facebook's "improvements" and fixes have really helped the site to be not nearly as helpful to get the word out as it once was.  Four months ago had I put up the trailer for Outside The Box and asked people to "like" the page and subscribe to the channel, we would have had a huge response.  Now - no.  Nobody is even aware.  I don't know what they've done, but in days of old all 2300 of my "friends" would have at least SEEN the stuff.  Now - no.  I know this because I've been astonished at the low response - last night I sent out an eBlast about the show to Kritzerland's list and voila - now we're getting some subscribers and people are excited about it.  And many of these people are "friends" on Facebook and had no clew about any of it.

My *least* favorite word of late is "Commute" and it has nothing to do with my daily train rides.  "Commute" is also an insurance deal term and it was a big part of the latest release of the software system I do work on.  I've been hearing people invent all kinds of versions of this word during the past ten months and it drives me crazy. "Commutings", "Commutations", "Commutization"--everyone wants to make up their own versions of the word.  It's worse when I find myself using them.

Once again, sorry for being E&T for the past few days.  Mom checked into the hospital on Wednesday to finally have her gall bladder removed.  And, of course, her surgery was delayed a day because the anesteasaligist didn't like how her legs were swollen and because he heard "crackles" in her lungs.  So
Mom spent the rest of the day in her hospital bed on a water pill and dealing with the results of that.  Also, neither the cardiologist nor the pulmonary doctor heard any lung "crackles" or saw any evidence of heart failure.  So she had her surgery on Thursday with no problems.  Right now she's enjoying a flounder for lunch--her first real food since Tuesday.

When I went to pay my check at lunch, I noticed that my credit card slip said "CREDIT REFUND" on it. Well... I went up to the counter to fix it, which I think I did. However, it appeared a bunch of other tickets processed today were processed as Refunds instead of Debits.

DR Ginny you did you a lot in the short time you were there.  Have you been other places in Europe?  I would suggest experiencing a new country with different architecture.

No, DR Jane, this was my first trip out of the country (other than border towns in Canada and Mexico).  We're thinking Great Britain in 2013 as our next trip...

Back from stuff - had some poached eggs, picked up an important envelope, did a little art project for the Gardenia show, which I screwed up the last two lines of so I now have to go buy some white out to redo them - and it will take a lot of white out because it's about fifteen words.  I finessed the patter for the Gardenia show and I'm about to do the four-mile jog.  Then I'll get ready to go to Long Beach for the opening of Hairspray.

I think - well, more like "know" that there's a style/method of directing and choreographing that is inherently inefficient and time-consuming, yet considered "normal" and "artistic".

Finally finished volume 4 of The Twilight Zone. I've changed my mind about these 1 hour episodes - they are nowhere near as good as the 30 minute ones.  In fact I fell asleep watching the final episode.  On to volume 5 now, where fortunately they're back to the usual length.

I forgot how much i dislike it when the weather gets cold. I don't like indoor exercising. Right now the weather is too cold to bike much. So the past few weeks i've only gone once per week. And once swimming. That is only 2 days of exercise when i had been doing 6. I"m going to try to bike more if it's sunny. Even if it is less than 50F.  And I think in the winter i'll try to swim twice a week.  Then maybe i can do my indoor bike once or twice a week.

My niece called to ask if i wanted to come over to help carve her pumpkin. I didn't realize that meant i would dig out the seeds, design it and carve it myself. :)

Actually she designed it on paper i just had to carve it. And she did dig out some of the seeds. I just thought i was going over to watch them do the pumpkin. Or i would have printed out design options from the internet.

As it is the pumpkin has a triangle nose, triangle eyes, a very thin wide smile, and 2 teeth fangs under his mouth! :)

State of emergency declared! Its really scarry out there! Neighbor's roof collapsing! Still have 12 plus hours of This. Cell phone off on service due to emergency use.

She isn't bothered by the power outages since she is still without power, water, etc.  Thankfully the tree on top of her house was finally removed this week.  There are still trees around the power lines & on her property that might not survive this onslaught.

She is scheduled for propane, water & septic next week.  I hope this storm doesn't interfere with that.

Well, then they changed it to lunch so that I could attend before my rehearsal. However, the place they picked is not exactly convenient for me to get to rehearsal on time tomorrow afternoon, especially with all of the road closures for the Marine Corps Marathon. So...

I'm thinking the sluggishness of my internet connection might be why "add" did not appear consistently.

My parents are coming up from Richmond tomorrow. Originally, they had planned to come up for dinner, and to celebrate the birthday of my brother, Mike. His birthday is on Halloween. Well, then they changed it to lunch so that I could attend before my rehearsal. However, the place they picked is not exactly convenient for me to get to rehearsal on time tomorrow afternoon, especially with all of the road closures for the Marine Corps Marathon. So... I hope I get to see my family for at least 30 minutes.

Are they aware you will only be there for a very short time?

We had a beautiful day for a butterfly garden tour. The monarchs came out and fluttered around on cue, and I had several caterpillars and a chrysalis to show. The Monarch Scientist's garden really wowed everyone.

Hey, Jose, can you do me a favor? Let Antipholus in.

Which one?
All of them.

Yep.


*I'll also be seeing them next weekend when they come to see the show.

Umm... Well... It may take a while for our choreographer to work out their traffic pattern.

We're back from a fun house party held to fund Gabe's high school foundation.  It was held at the parents of two girls attending Gabe's school, and it turns out the husband is Portland's Police Chief!  I joked with Betsy that his daughters are NEVER going to have boyfriends hit on them.  :)

Finally back after a very long Hairspray - I was starving so I stopped at Jerry's and had a cup of chicken soup and a chopped salad.

Larry, my sister's boyfriend, brought over his laptop and I'm now recording the PBS showing of the filmed "Rigoletto a Mantova (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1687279/)" with Placido Domingo, where they performed it at the specific places that are referenced in the opera. 

How is it? I'd like to see it.

I like it.  I read some reviews on-line about the broadcast and I found more that are favorable than not.  I just really like the idea of them singing live and you can tell that they're not lip-syncing.  I recorded it to his laptop so that he can make a Blu-ray disc. 

Larry, you had mentioned that you wanted to see it when I first recorded it from PBS and I asked Larry if he would make two copies.  He said that it's no problem.  The only problem is that he has several projects ahead of this, but he'll have the show recorded on his laptop and now I'll be able to delete it from my DVR...unless you just want a regular (non-hi-def) DVD.  I could do that, myself.  Just let me know. :D
