Good morning, all! I slept late, which was nice, and I have very little to accomplish today. I just got the first edit of the first entr'acte for EILEEN, which should be a fairly easy thing to proofread, once I enlarge it from 8.5x11 to 11x17.

There was no response t my inquiry about the invoice check, so I'm hoping it arrives in today's post.

My niece just called so happy. She got her report card from her swimming lessons. And she got passed to blue. She was so proud of herself. My sister did not think that she would go to the next level since she is only 5 and all the kids in her red class were already at least a year older (and much taller). They all seemed to be 7ish.

She has made such amazing strides this summer. It's like seeing a new kid. She can now swim both front and back crawl for the the entire length of the pool!

Can't wait to see how big the kids are in blue!

They had sent me forms I could make little sense of - send me a piece of music that needs to go from C to F-sharp, that i can do! So next Tuesday at 4 pma representative will arrvie at my apartment to help me make sense of this. Thank God! That's one problem down.

And I wouldn't want to know what Boo was yelling a bout in the middle of the night.   I got up after she ranted for about 15 minutes.  I didn't go to her, just went to the bathroom, she came in, brushed up against my leg, left the room and was quiet the rest of the night.  What a goof ball.  I'm going to wake her up when I get home

Ever since I've been a member of Toastmasters  I become more aware  people who use those crutch words. Toaster "frowns" on the Uhs and Ums.

Hey, DR TCB!  Long time, no see!



Yeah.  I am waiting for some saltwater taffy.

If they sang about it in BOOK OF MORMONS, I wonder if they would call it Sal Twatter Tah Fee?

Brutally hot out now. It is 45C which must be way over 100F.

I saw on the weather network that it said humidex 45C and that it was 47% humidity. Is that high? (never saw the percentages before).

My library just called and they have 2 books for me that I have been dying to read. One i actually got from my sister's library yesterday (had no idea they would get it so fast since it just came out on the 12th). But most shocking is a sequel that only comes out next tuesday. I asked the lady on the phone 3 times if she was sure she had the right back. She even told me the author. Yeah!

And oddly enough the library has not lost any of my reservations since i started photocopying my slips. :)

Did something that Mark Bittman suggested in a column recently: Grilled a slab of cabbage. Just brushed with some olive oil and a sprinkling of salt and left it on the grill for a while. It's really good. Brings out the sweetness in the cabbage and it smells much better than boiled cabbage. I may do thinner cuts next time and put a slice on a burger or shred it to put on sausage or hot dogs.

My friend is not a doctor (nor has he ever played one on TV), however he does know a great deal about medicine.  He is the chief embalmer for the State of Washington.

Intriguing.  I'm glad he let you know which kind of doctor you need.  While I hope this is not the case with your miracle doctor, neurosurgeons are not know for their bedside manner.

You might call Monday morning with a friendly reminder & request for any cancellation slots.

Ain't it the truth.  I started thinking it maybe vitamin D again, so I took 1000mg this morning and as the day went on I felt better, so I took another 1000mg tonight and I'm amazed at how good it feels.

The film of "Cousin Bette" is terrible! And Danny Troob knows nothng about orchestration in the 1860s Parisian theatre. That last song in the film might be fine on Broadway last week, but it has nothing to do with the time in which it occurs. It appears McAnuff has tried to combine Balzac with Zola's NANA for the music hall star. That film's about as faithful to Balzac as John F Kennedy was to Jackie. The fantastic BBC version with the formidable and wonderful Margaret Tyzack changes one thing from Balzac's novel: the ending, and I prefer it to the book because it gives the character one more kick before she dies.

It is a movie with a great cast and absolutely nothing else going for it. I can't believe how bad it is, and the music does sound way too modern, though McAnuff might have wanted it that way in the way that the makers of "It's Delovely" decided to destroy all beauty from Cole Porter's music.

Tomorrow is supposed to be "Dangerously Hot". I don't have to go in early for understudy rehearsal, but I do have a few errands to run which I'm hoping to get done in the morning.

Back from the Gardenia.  Rehearsal was fun - we just ran songs with staging, then worked on one ballad for a while - then we went to Jerry's Deli and I had a sandwich and no fries.  I continued working on figuring out the music from the movie until I left for the Gardenia.  When I got back, I finished the music/movie and I've got it all done now, which is a HUGE relief.  I've sent the editing road map to my engineer.
