I am doing laundry. I did a lot of cleaning yesterday. There's more cleaning to do, but it'll wait. Today I'm getting (partially) caught up on the laundry. I have some organizing to do, too.

BK, has Barry Pearl's Broadway show closed, or was he in for a limited run?

I read this morning that Israeli singer, Yaffa Yarkoni, passed away. Personally I have never heard of her, but I thought Mike Barnum might be a big fan.

And just in case people don't read through all 12 pages of last night's posts, here's the exact moment of the new year on the west coast:

And I can see Jane waving from Bora Bora.

When does Eliza sing again DR JOSE?

At approximately 2:15pm this afternoon. At least I think that's when "Wouldn't It Be Loverly" starts. Maybe it's more like 2:10-ish.

I would say 2:15.

Is that Ty Hardin?

D'oh--who's the damn page editor around here Department: Juxtaposed right next to each other in this morning's OREGONIAN, these two headlines:

Exactly. Don't worry about the flying; it is the airports that are dangeous.

I just got back from an overnight stay in the hospital, not the most auspicious ways to ring in the new year, certainly. I woke up at about 4 a.m. Saturday with horrible abdominal pains. When they didn't subside after a few hours, I drove myself to the ER, where they discovered not the cause of the pain but a kidney problem that I'm going to have to get checked out with a urologist this week.

Oh John, I am so sorry. I hope the kidney problem is nothing serious.

I started to watch the film Half a Sixpence with Tommy Steele which was on one of the BBC channels. I haven't seen the film since first seeing it in 70mm but this TV print was terrible. The picture filled the 16:9 screen so was in the wrong ratio and the sound was mono. The picture was soft with some sort of speckling over it and the color looked washed out. I gave up watching after 10 minutes.

LET THERE BE PEACE ON EARTH was written for Unity Churches back in the 1950s. I was the Music Director of Unity of Portland for many years and one of the writers came out one week, I can't for the life of me remember her name.

She came out?

I went to bed last night, but ended up staying awake until 4:00 a.m. First I watched (or listened) to the Live at Lincoln Center New Year's Eve Concert. They were doing an all Gershwin and Bernstein program. They did CANDIDE and WEST SIDE STORY DANCES for the Bernstein and Concerto in F and the Rhapsody in Blue for Gershwin. I was not familiar with the piano soloist, Jean-Yves Thibaudet. Since I know little about music, I should probably not comment on any parts of it, but it was a nice concert.

Then since it was after eleven, I fiugred that I might as well watch the Space Needle fireworks. But after that, I could not fall asleep.

Did the four-mile jog, did a little revising of the seven pages, made some additions to them, and have now done fifteen pages, which is, I think, the most I've ever done of the first day of a new book. And I'm having a great time and may actually do a couple more pages later after the party.

Is this book going to be a racy Hollywood exposé?

Mr Thibaudet has a very large discography.

That's not a euphemism.

The Unity lady was named Jill Jackson Miller. Considering her background, chances are Mike knew her well.

Good Evening!

Back from the matinee, and post-show dinner with Steve.

The show went well. We had an almost sold out house. I think my fingers were still thinking it was 2011 in some places, but, nothing too noticeable, hearable. I hope. Of course, when I walked through the lobby after the show, there were at least six "important" people I knew who were in attendance today. Hopefully, they didn't notice or hear anything either.

Oh...

And, apparently, Arena Stage had to cancel the closing performances today of Equivocation - which was imported from the Oregon Shakespeare Festival - due to one of the actors breaking their ankle on the way to the theatre today. $:-\$
