Slept most of th day away yesterday.

Attempted to watch a few movies but kept on falling asleep. I eventually saw them all the way throug.

My favorite was The Gumball Rally. (A lot better than the Cannonball Run movies that followed)

Most of my misheard lyrics are lyrics I never understood in a song....

like "chromium wheels in America" in WEST SIDE STORY....until I saw the song on paper, I didn't know what they were singing.

And the famous "gee our old LaSalle ran great" from ALL IN THE FAMILY, something else I could never understand....until they told us what it was....

I remember Bette Ford as being a fine First Lady and having a great sense of humor about the situation she found herself in.

I also remember after the family left the White House that she and her husband and maybe one or two of their children were signed by NBC as commentators for several events.

One of them was a ballet....on network television!  Her comments were on tape.....but she was completely intoxicated OR on pain medication to the point of slurring her words so you could barely understand her.

And then she wrote in her book......as did Kitty Dukakis later almost word for word......"I continued to function and carry out my public duties and no one knew that I had a problem...."

Yes, we did, ladies.....it was more than obvious.  Bette made getting help for those problems a choice with less stigma than it had before.

TOD:  In "The Kind of Man a Woman Needs," by (who else?) Barbra Streisand, the line is "Youthful, no my man ain't youthful..."   I heard it as "Useful, no my man ain't useful,"  wondering why Barbra was singing with a lisp.

I'm also sorry to hear about Betty Ford; she seemed a god lady, and I admired her and her family.

I can think of two examples where I couldn't full understand the lyrics:

In "Ballroom," Dorothy Loudon sings "There's a Terrific Band and a Real Nice Crowd." At one point she sings, "That isn't the Matterhorn/It's only a flight of stairs." I thought she sang, "It's only the Fred Astaires."

And in the B52's "Love Shack," the girls mumble something about Henry Rusk or hinges rusted or something that I still don't know what they mean. But I'm usually too busy dancing to care.

Many of my misheard lyric memories are from my childhood when my much (MUCH) older sisters would listen to LPs and ask me what I thought was being sung.  One I remember especially, a propos of today's posts, was Gee, Officer Krupke from the soundtrack of WEST SIDE STORY, where my sisters just couldn't understand "Krup you!" at the end.  We were far too naive to even think of what it was "supposed" to be.  :)

Another one I very well remember from a few years later was the absolutely gorgeous Alan & Marilyn Bergman lyric to Dori Caymmi's gorgeous "Like a Lover."  My eldest sister wanted to send the lyric to her then boyfriend as a "love poem," but couldn't figure out one line.  We vacillated between "Its light arrives on tiptoe" and "Its lighter thrives on tiptoe."  Though I kind of like the second one, the first turned out to be correct.  :)

And, apparently, I really needed the sleep.

I ended falling asleep on the couch last night. Again. When I woke up this morning - about a half hour ago - my "other" niece and nephew, Elena and Mason, were playing with their toys in the living room. They sort of ended up being my alarm clock. However, it turns out that they had already been up for a couple of hours, and my brother had even prepared breakfast for them. And I slept soundly through all of it.

As for the Topic of the Day...

The only one that comes to mind right now is the line from "Could I Leave You?" in Follies:

"You take the grand, Sugar. I'll take the spinet."

Until I had actually read the lyrics in the score, I had always wondered "What in the hell is "grand sugar"?"

This has become the day from hell at Toyland. I scanned the notes and dialogue, which went fine. Then I checked the full score, to find I'd left 3 pages - 15, 22, and 52 - at home. So, I had to print those out and reproof them. I went to scan the first 31 pages of the score to find the power strip for the phone, printer, and computer dead and had to deal with a new one. Then I scanned the first half of the score and the computer turned off, and I lost it. I scanned it again and the paper jammed. This last time the goddam score jammed again. Will this day ever end?

Damn damn damn!

For those who mentioned it, Evel Dick has left the Big Brother house. They have not said why yet. There was lots of speculation.  But he did tweet saying that he was not in jail, his son/girlfriend were not sick and he was not thrown out of the game. He gonna say what happened in a video in the next couple of days.

For anyone who loves live feed spoilers (i.e., what is happening in real time not on the show as they show it) i love hamsterwatch.com (and Dingo is on facebook doing updates).

I began another post and the power went out, I started scanning and the paper jammed again. I don't know if it's the building's circuits or if the power strip I had has a circuit breaker that decides every 5 minutes I should stop. After two more power outages, I figured fuckit, packed up, left the music there and came home. On the way, I purchased at a hardware store two new power strips.

It's been a really shitty day and a waste of my time.

It really does sound like she's saying "highway" and not "round" "oh yeah"

And how about ACK-SHUN

Well, I just got a call from my sister's boyfriend, asking if I want to go to the Seattle Storm game tonight...actually, now.  My niece, who was going to go, can't.  The game doesn't start until 7:00, but there's so much traffic that we would have to leave fairly soon to get through it all.  So, I'm off to Seattle.

Have a good day, all!

Hmm, I drove everyone away.

I'm here, DR TCB! How are you feeling?

As long as I am seated, I feel okay.   The walking (stumbling) part keeps getting worse.

Will the stumbling improve as your broken toes do?  Is there another problem causing it?  If I remember correctly you said the pain in your back caused the first fall.

It is a scaitic nerve problem.  The nerve is being pinched off by the disk in my back.  My left leg is getting more and more numb all the time; and when you can't feel your leg and your foot, you tend to fall down.

Ahhhh,  I get BEWARE THE BLOB.


If anyone else got to BEWARE THE BLOB, perhaps they could explain this notation in the cast list:

Robert Walker Jr.  ..........  Bobby Hartford (as Robert Walker) 

Yes I can.

Under SAG rules only one actor can have the same name. I believe that a number of years have to pass after an actor dies or an actor redraws from SAG can another actor use the same name

Most recent example that I remember was Paul Rudd. A NY stage actor who appeared briefly in film and TV (10 years) 75-85. The current Paul Rudd started acting in 1992 but used the name Paul Stephen Rudd until 1996

I have been watching the second and final season of the BBC series from the 1970s, THE DUCHESS OF DUKE STREET, which I recommend wholeheartedly for both its excellent ensemble cast and its wonderful social history of London from the 1880s through the early 20th century. While it's similar to UPSTAIRS DOWNSTAIRS, I think it's good to have a look at the same period from another perspective.

At the moment I'm watching what I suspect is the final episode covering World War I - I think the date at the beginning of the episode was August 1918 - and blubbering through it with six episodes to go. I always loved Gemma Jones and she is really quite wonderful in this.

I forgot to mention one of the funnier/weirder things about these tenants.  The ex-bf, whom the remaining tenant kicked out of the house (thus making it unaffordable for her LOL) has repeatedly gone off the deep end with me via a series of stranger and stranger emails.  He finally sent this bombastic email insisting on no further contact from me, which of course he followed up with several *more* emails to me.   ::)  The most hilarious thing he sent me was a demand that I return my hoses (as in hoses I bought) to the rental property because the garden he had put in, in the house where he no longer lived and where his ex-gf was vacating within two or three days, was dying.  This is what Betsy and I have been dealing with for the past month.

In case you're wondering, we took the hoses because they had installed a pet door in the front door without permission and due to this guy's erratic behavior I had visions of him putting the hose through it and flooding the house.

DR TCB that particular listing means that for THAT particular film, the actor known as Robert Walker, Jr was billed as Robert Walker.

I seem to remember that he did that for a couple of films to honor his father.  It is true that SAG (and Equity) only allow one working actor with a name on its rolls.....but an inactive name can be re-used after an interval.  I am not sure about the time frame, but I think in that particular case it was done for personal reasons......Harry Carey, Jr, used that name for his entire career, so it must have been RW Jr's strong feelings about his dad.

Scary! The ghost in the apartment just this minute rattled something metallic behind me and actually spooked me. I spoke up and asked, "did you want my attention for something?" No response yet.

I guess it's time for bed. This is the second night in a row about this time that the ghost has spooked me. Last night was something strange visually after I turned off the lights that I can't analyze or describe, but it was as if a fragmented darker shadow passed by my computer. Gave me quite a start.

There's a whole chapter for the memoirs: my family and the paranormal. And I am not talking about Lady M.

For those who mentioned it, Evel Dick has left the Big Brother house. They have not said why yet. There was lots of speculation.  But he did tweet saying that he was not in jail, his son/girlfriend were not sick and he was not thrown out of the game. He gonna say what happened in a video in the next couple of days.

For anyone who loves live feed spoilers (i.e., what is happening in real time not on the show as they show it) i love hamsterwatch.com (and Dingo is on facebook doing updates).





Wonder if he's got a health problem

Good Evening!

Tonight's second preview of Oklahoma! went very well. I played some "interesting" notes and sounds in a few places tonight, but at least those moments just caused some giggles and smiles rather than "daggers".

We have two shows tomorrow. -Which means we also have our first "band dinner" between shows. :)

As I was getting into my car to head home, I thought I recognized the woman getting into the car next to mine. "Karen?" -And sure enough, it was Karen! We met when I was 17-years old! She used to run one of the community theatre companies in DC. When I did Baby!, she was Arlene. She was also one of the first people I came out to.

We had reconnected via Facebook a few years ago, but this was first time we had seen each other in person in 20 years! -And we'll be making plans to see each other again while I'm in town. :)

DR elmore - Maybe you should have a pastrami sandwich from Artie's before you head down to Toyland next time. ;)

I got a lot done today, but it didn't really feel like it, if that makes any sense.  I went to shopko and found 2 patio rugs on sale that will work on my deck to cover the holes and cracks.  I did find a rotten board on the bench, but an old table I stained yesterday since I had the stain out, really looks good and I think it will fit in the gap caused if I take that board out.

I also found 2 large patio rugs (they are REALLY on sale right now) that I put together in the room in the basement.  It's not a permanent solution but it looks pretty good and will make the room presentable for the party.  It's supposed to be in the 90s that day, so the party may end up being inside

I also figured out what was wrong with the toilet....In a nutshell, it had a flush actuator installed rather than just a flapper.  I didn't know what the heck it was, anyway, figured it out, was able to remove the faulty part and put in an old fashioned flapper.  It's working again.  Woo hoo.

Oh, I also found the paint for my lions.  I have two lions out front and they aren't really cement they are clay painted to look like cement.  Anyway, I couldn't find the paint to touch them up anywhere.  Finally, I found the one store in town that still carries it.

Then just to go into my 50th year in style, I colored my hair.  It doesn't look much different, just got rid of the gray

The storms haven't hit us yet.  I should have watered the trees tonight, but I thought it was going to rain.   Anyway, if it isn't raining in the morning I will get the deck painted.   I'm not planning to get the gazebo done before the party.   I'll get out the powerwasher and clean it up in case anyone wants to go in there, but not going to sweat that.

I'm really pleased how things are going.   I'm not stressing about the things that need to get done, just doing them one by one.  I tend to do that every July.

In other news...

Since I needed a new pair of jeans to wear in the "schoolhouse" as well as for my own personal use, I decided to head to the mall before heading into the theatre earlier this afternoon. I had hoped to buy my usual pair of jeans at Banana Republic, but they seemed to change the cut and fit of their Straight Leg jeans. Again. So, I headed to Old Navy and found a serviceable pair there. I also ended up buying a new pair of shoes too since my current pair of New Balance cross-trainers are truly on their last leg (sole?).

After I finished my shopping, I headed back to the parking garage where I proceeded to walk around for a couple of minutes trying to remember where I had parked. Once I found the car, I loaded my purchases into the trunk. Then when I went to get into the driver's seat, I noticed that I didn't have the car keys in my hand, nor in my pockets. I had locked my keys in the trunk!

Thankfully - and luckily - I had not placed my bag in the trunk, nor my phone, so I was able to call my brother - who, luckily, was at home - and ask him to bring his spare key. -I'm driving his other car while I'm down here.

...And I made it to the theatre by the half-hour call.

Whew!

They didn't mow my yard on Thursday.  I called and was told that it probably looked like it didn't need it.   Yeah, if you don't have eyes it didn't need it.  Anyway, he promised they'd do the yard on Thursday or Friday next week and make sure it really looks good.

Well... I've made some tentative plans to meet some folks downtown before tomorrow's matinee to attend the last day of the Smithsonian's Folk Life Festival. There's also some sort of paella event/tasting event going on in Penn Quarter, so... We shall see.  In any case, I should get some sleep.

Goodnight.

Just got in - DD Ben found the first four pages of the homemade key 2 book for Curtains as well as the knobs on my Korg Triton to his liking when I was gone.  All but 1 knob is salvageable and I am able to re-print the pages he enjoyed.  DD is getting rather comfy when left alone.... the honeymoon is over.

We've had some good casting news and we're almost done now.  We have our guest star - Rex Smith.  And we have Camille Saviola.  She'd come to one of our early shows and asked if she could do one and since I needed a Judy Kaye kind of performer, she seemed like the ticket for this one.

Rex Smith!!  I just saw his LP "Sooner or Later" as I was going through my LP's today.  Man, has he changed since then.  :)
