Good morning, all! I had to get out of bed: too many nightmares about EILEEN.I'm happy with the work that my team and I have accomplished, bt there are too many wld cards floating about between here and Dublin to make me happy at the moment: needless spending on binding machinery, audition tapes, recording studio, chorus, recording dates, all of which I cannot control. In short, my work will be excellent and ready and we will be paid for our work, but the schedule may be off and the recording delayed, and this may affect future work. I try not to think of it, but this morning, it became my obsession.
I also had a long frustrating dream about working for Office Outfitters (1973-1978), crazy co-workers, including Snooky, a friend of mine and DR Ginny who never worked at Office Outfitters, a delayed telephone order and other nonsense. Speaking of DR Ginny, I am listening to Haydn's "The Creation," which has brought back memories of my ninth grade commencement. the choir, which is where I met Richard in seventh grade, sang the glorious "The Heavens Are Telling the Glory of God," which closes the first part of Haydn's oratorio. I'm sure Richard was there in 1961.
So, today, now that I've finished my arrangement, I've got several charts from EILEEN waiting to be proofed. That's my day.
