Well, you've read the notes, the notes were whiny, and now it is time for you to post until the whiny cows come home.

And the word of the day is: PAVONINE!
-
Morning all.
That is all.
-
It's raining in Manhattan as I eat my breakfast.
Laundry after work and then dinner.

We are going to New Jersey tomorrow to visit cousins of Anthony's.

No listening or viewing on the schedule.

Good Morning To All

From yesterday DR Jose said
Follies has an interesting opening week schedule. Their first performance is on Sunday, August 7, at 3:00. And then they're dark on Monday, and resume Tuesday night.
*They're also having a strangely(?) long preview period - 5 weeks - for a show that's supposedly just being remounted from the Kennedy Center presentation.
I believe the ghosts are now going to be flown around the stage.

Nothing planned

"Rupert Murdoch issues statement: "James and I are deeply touched by all the messages of support left on Amy Winehouse's phone"."
-
Good morning, all! I slept well, and I hope we can finish this project called EILEEN today.
Please keep those vibes coming! We've got scores to print and a few remaning orchestra parts. The smoother it goes, the happier I will be.
BK, the email inquiry is sent. She's one of my Facebook friends, so you can always send her a message as well.
I have no more news for the day. So far.
TOD:
DVD: two Netflix items sitting here for too long
CD: An Evening With Sheldon Harnick, Kate Baldwin sings Sheldon Harnick, Guy Haines,
VCR: who's got the time this week?
-
Friday morning greetings! Still waiting to hear from ML or her mom about where/when to pick them up for our lunchtime visit to the wedding florist...
-
Oops, just reread the email I'd received a week ago from ML's mom and realized that she'd included directions in that message. So, I'll be off to Lansing in a few hours and my sister will probably go with me. She and her husband usually play in a Friday evening golf league, but the course is probably too wet after a doozy of a storm overnight.
-
Travel vibes for DR GINNY.
-
Friday is a work day.....
We did the singing for the Camelot Finale Ultimo last night and it sounded very nice. Only problem was with the alto singers.....who finally got their notes....finally.
We will set the lights and cues beginning Monday at 10 a.m. - and then stage the last scene - and then sing everything! So we shall see what we have.... If anything.
-
TOD:
DVD - Pretty Boys a strange film about a rock band in 1973.....perhaps I shall finish it....or move on to more Downton Abbey
CD - a mix CD of songs I made for Summer 2011
-
DR CILLA LIZ - I would expect that you will see those dishes relisted - or the seller got a better offer via email for them.....

Thanks for the vibes, DR JRand.

Yes, the lesbians are Mlle Danglers and her singing teacher. The only English transaltion that does not gloss over their relationship is the Robn Buss one for Penguin Books. Have they been caght in flagrante delicto yet?

More work today: because my copyist supervisor was more concerned with getting to London, I have a timpani/bells/chimes problem I have to resolve today. I doubt he ever even listened to my wishes about this two months ago. I had asked for the part to be included in the percussion book so that all the percussion parts were available to all players. It didn't happen, so I've got a percussion part for triangle, Bass Drum, Cymbals, Snare Drum, Tambourine that can be divided among three players, but the tuned percussion is all on a spearate part with the timpani. So, we have to rprint a second timpani part today for any part that has bells or chimes.
Keep them vibes coming! I'm out of here!

No idea what I'm going to watch this weekend.
Yesterday, I watched HIGH NOON and IRMA LA DOUCE.
I hadn't seen IRMA since it was first released in 1963.
-
DR Cillaliz, I had been getting plenty of sun until this Monday. Tues-Thurs did not get much sun cause did not feel well.
I don't take any vitamins. Maybe i should.
Usually i sleep pretty well. But not so much this week.

It is finally Friday! Huzzah!

Thanks, all, for the vibes for my mom.
It's been an experience! After an initial diagnose of a stoney gall bladder, my mom had to go thru a number of tests and imagery sessions on her 2nd day that were tiring her out. But then they put her thru a procedure that was to clear her bile duct of some stones that, because of the twilight anastesia and the huge amout of bile suddenly flowing thru her system, left her in a state of dementia. Very frightening, though the doctors and the staff repeatedly told us thus is a normal reaction in elderly patients. To make matters worse, over Wednesday night Mom developed anterial fibulation (which she has no history of.) Her surgeon told us that because of that, they would not put her at risk of gall bladder surgery. The cardiologist matter-of-factly initially said they could "slip" a pacemaker into her to correct her heartbeat, but later "lessened" that to just giving her heart an electric shock. We were also told that she would need a tube inserted into the gall bladder to drain it to prevent an infection.
But then things started to turn for the better. Moms heartrate corrected itself through the drugs they gave her, do she didn't need the shock procedure. Then the tube insertion went smoothly and mom came out of it feeling fine. She had a fitfull night last night, but I suspect that was because they left a rather bright light on over her bed all night. Since I came in this morning and turned on the indirect light, mom has been sleeping light a baby.
And good news from the surgeons--if moms heart rate continues to stay normal over the weekend, they will go ahead with the gall bladder surgery on Monday.
Again, thank you all lovely people for the vibes! They do work!
Sending vibes in return for all that need them!

MichaelS, thanks for the hearty laugh.

DtM, since your Mom is feeling better, I can say that Stoney Gall Bladder is one of my favorite Laura Nyro tunes.

Good Morning! Good Afternoon!
I'm up, I'm up... And the 30 minutes of errands I had to run this morning ended up taking about 2 hours. -Boy, do I miss having a subway station just a one-minute walk from my front door.

Just found out some very sad news. Chrisopher Mayer (aka Chip Mayer), who played Vance Duke on DUKES OF HAZZARD for one season, died July 23. No cause of death has been listed, but it was unexpected. He was 57.
I was a big fan of his. He was on a lot of TV shows back in the 80s, as I recall.

What a coinkydink! My cousin from Oregon and his wife are coming to Olympia tomorrow to visit us! They'll be here until Tuesday morning.
On Monday, we're going to Seattle for the day. We plan to go to the Space Needle (maybe have lunch there...I've never dined at the Space Needle restaurant (http://www.spaceneedle.com/restaurant/)!), the EMP (http://www.empmuseum.org/index.asp) (Experience Music Project) and the Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame (part of the EMP).

Hello, everyone.
Bruce, Jane said she'd be gone for a few days, because she and Keith are going to a wedding. Around Big Bear? I don't recall just where.
-
I saw two excellent WWII dramas this week. The first, COTTAGE TO LET, was quite charming. The second, THE MAN WHO NEVER WAS, was a beautifully crafted film, IMHO. Both are from Netflix.
As there are no mailboxes nearby, several of us leave our outgoing mail tucked into a little opening in the building's multi-user mailbox. Our mail carrier told me to just put it there. Every now and then one of my outgoing Netflix envelopes goes missing. (Nothing else has disappeared, to my knowledge.) Whoever took this morning's is likely to be quite surprised with an old, British black-and-white film.

Vibes (at first I typed that "vices"!) to Dan (the Man)'s mom.
Continued vibes to Larry for a smooth work environment.

DR Druxy, there are quite a few vets now who use homeopathy in their veterinary practices. The remedies are usually tiny pills, which can be mixed with a cat's food. Far, far less invasive than surgery. Some years ago I gave a friend two home-care books, as her cats were forever getting ill and my friend had lots of vet bills. Available on Amazon.
In any case, vibes to your DK(kitty) Annie.
-
TTFN.

In other news, today is the birthday of HHW fave Kevin Spirtas!

High of 104 in Washington DC today. Ugh!

I thought Jane said they were taking Sherlock to Carmel to hob-knob with the swells.

One way or the other, she clearly told us she would be E&T.

Couldn't you devote this issue to your adventures with the monarch scientist? Then tie it in with a biblical passage and no one will be any the wiser.
-
Very few people even read it anyway, MBarnum. I actually did that several months ago when I had an entire empty page.
My mother-in-law and her husband read the newsletter. The mailman reads his. Other than that, sometimes I wonder if anyone even reads it.

You know how it is.

Still on page three. And Jane is gone. Whatever shall be done? Rehearsal is done until six, when Melody gets here.

I am back from another long day; 10.5 hours today. when I got there in the morning, I cut down the photocopies of the full scores to 11x14 to be bound in several volumes, then I continued to tape orchestra parts, pulling the ones the printer really screwed up for reprinting. When I left, our librarian Marnie was finishing the parts for the long Act Two Finale, and I left her the string parts for the Opening of Act Three. On the way out of the buildng I got caught in a torrential downpour on my way to the subway. I got home, got a phone call from my brother Randy telling me that he;'d had a phone call from someone claiming that my dad owed a collection agency money. Since I would swear we paid everything off in 2007, after my dad died, and since we've never received a bill from anyone since Feb 2007, I think it's a carload of bullshit. Randy was rather fraught about it.I told hime three things to do:
1. tell himto call me as executor
2. tell him to call the estate attorney
3. tell him to put it inm writing and mail it to me
I also got my plane reservations for Dublin today: Aug 13-Aug 26; I guess I'm heading back to the Olde Country!
-
So, let me get this straight - you won't be there for my visit because you're going to DUBLIN?
-
I love Dublin. I wish I could join you. We will be in Poughkeepsie the weekend that you leave.
I will then be in Manhattan for the rest of your time in my favorite city (next to London).
-
I'll be in Phoenix that weekend.
-
I'll be in Tumwater that weekend.
-
BK, do you think that Melody's focus being slightly off, might have had something to do with eating pizza before the rehearsal?
-
Actually, Aug 13-Aug 26 is over two (almost three) weekends. I'll still be in Tumwater, though.
-
So, let me get this straight - you won't be there for my visit because you're going to DUBLIN?
Yep! I didn't bring it up because I hate to see you cry.
-
I knew I'd be in Dublin for recording on August 22-25, but I didn't know how much earlier they would need me until today..
-
What the HELL do they need to record in DUBLIN. Irish beer songs?
-
Melody only had a piece of pizza so I don't think it was that - I think it was the rehearsal room.
-
Waiting for Melody to get here so we can run her song and I can finally go EAT. Perhaps I'll have a meal in DUBLIN.
-
Well, it's time for me to leave work. I'm going to my sister's to install a couple of towel bars in her bathroom, then home for some TV watching.
Be back later.
-
You would have quite a few wonderful choices if you did go to Dublin for a meal.
-
Continued good vibes for Dan (the Man)'s mom.

Exhausting but fruitful day of wedding prep in Lansing! Mary Linda and her Mom and I ordered the flowers for the ceremony and reception and then I sent them out to wait in the car with my sister while I discussed rehearsal dinner decor. I want the Cincinnati-themed event to be full of surprises for Rob and Mary Linda.
After we took the working women back to their offices, Nancy and I had a quick lunch at Applebee's and then I met with the events manager at the rehearsal dinner venue. We sketched out the menu for the appetizer buffet and discussed a lot of the set-up and decor. I'm going home with a couple of little projects that will require me to get in touch with my inner Martha Stewart.
We picked up my brother-in-law and went to dinner at Fajitas, a delightful Mexican jernt owned by a friend of theirs. Mmmm!
-
DR CILLA LIZ - I would expect that you will see those dishes relisted - or the seller got a better offer via email for them.....
I looked tonight and didn't see them. The funny thing is she has them listed as Imperial Candlewick and they aren't. It's a common mistake for these dishes. I didn't respond to her note, but am watching
-
I found this clip pretty hysterical. This guy (Randy Rainbow) took Mel Gibson's obscene phone rantings and combined theme into a fiictional phone conversation with Mel Gibson (who is supposedly dating}
WARNING: Some of Mel's rants may be offensive, even though a lot of it is bleeped.

No, he's goin' to Ireland, for cryin' out loud, to record Irish beer songs.

-
I have had a very productive week and have a couple pretty big hearings next week to prepare for
-
But tomorrow is Saturday, so I'm heading out of town very bright and early so I can pick my mom up and go to an auction in E'ville
-
She doesn't want to spend a lot of time there, so she has a friend who will bid for us if need be. She doesn't think it will last long.
-
I'm also giving her my set of china from when I got married. She actually picked out the pattern (long story). I like it, but it's never been my favorite. She said "Oh, I always liked that" (Well hello, you picked it out). So I'm giving it to her.

I've got both breakfast and dinner plans on Sunday, so I'm not spending the night at the lake.

DR TCB, there is a Dublin, OH - a suburb of Columbus.

Health vibes for DR Dan (the Man)'s Mom!
Auction vibes for DR Cillaliz's Mom!
-
'night!
-
I think it will be fun. My mom knows a lot about all sorts of antiques. There aren't a lot of antiques, but her friend had a set of candlewick dishes and mom and I both have candlewick, so we're going to see what sort of shape they are in and may bid on them
-
Plus, i've gotten some great furniture buys at auctions. She had a game table and chairs that my mom thinks are really nice.
-
This means I'll have to leave the house at 7:00 am or earlier. I like that actually because I get there about the time everyone is starting their day. It's almost the same as going up the night before, but my bed is more comfortable, lol. Adam, Sundee, Gabe, Cat Hazel Penelope Roo and Dog Molly will roll in around noon
-
Sounds like a fun weekend, Cillaliz.
-
Thanks Laura, I think so. Mom wants me to spend the night, but it's just a lot easier to come home.
-
I can't believe school starts here on August 17 or 18 this year. That's just crazy!
-
Of course I don't have to worry about it, but that seems awfully early to me
-
It seems to me we either started after Labor day or at least around Aug 28.
-
I like Irish Beer
I do, too.
-
Some of our schools have already started up.
-
Thanks for the Attack of the Puppet People pictures. Now that I have Netflix, I may have to get that.
-
More vibes for DtM and his mom. I hope you are both getting rest.
-
Druxy, did you like Irma?
-
Went to a food truck throwndown or roundup tonight. Thirty different food trucks and surprisingly a lot of foods I could eat, including naked wings, pork belly, carnitas, braised short ribs, Pakistani beef, shrimp ceviche on pork rinds, calamari. Vegetables and salads are in fairly short supply at these trucks.

And bbq. That's what they said they were selling.

In July?? That just seems unAmerican or something

Speaking of BBQ, today I got a certificate of participation that stated I was a judge in the worlds largest barbeque pork cooking contest. What a fun thing. I did do the people's choice where you rate the BBQ. I never expected a certificate that looks so official. I'm going to frame it and hang it at the office

That's a great souvenir.

Thanks John G. It's been 2 1/2 months since I was there, so it was really a surprise. And I think it's really funny it arrived two weeks after I did my pulled pork....which really did turn out well. I will do that again

TOD:
DVD:
THE LITTLEST HOBO which was sent to me this week by Miss Dorothy Johnson who stars in the film.
Two George Martin spaghetti westerns that I keep meaning to watch. Since I will be dog sitting all weekend, that should keep me home and in front of the TV for most of that time.
CD:
NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL ARABIA vol. 7
DVR:
This weeks episodes of HAPPILY DIVORCED and HOT IN CLEVELAND
Is this The Littlest Hobo that was two different television series from Canada. One in 60's and the other in the 80's (or was it the 70's?)

I agree.
-
There's a great Custer LaRue CD of British-Irish drinking songs called Watkins Ale. I haven't listened to it for ages.
-
Finished with my viewing for the evening.
-
Got my story written on all the food truck food I shouldn't have eaten. Now I can listen to a little more "Count of Monte Cristo." I've made to disc 35. I feel I can't stop, though I will have to tonight.
-
One more.
-
Page six!
-
Night, all.
-
Wrote the blurb for the new release, so it will announce here at midnight.
-
Good Evening!
Good day. Good show. I'm tired. I'm sleepy.
I shall catch up and post in the morning.
VIBES and XYLOPHONES to those in need!
Goodnight.

We are going to New Jersey tomorrow to visit cousins of Anthony's.
What a coinkydink! My cousin from Oregon and his wife are coming to Olympia tomorrow to visit us! They'll be here until Tuesday morning.
On Monday, we're going to Seattle for the day. We plan to go to the Space Needle (maybe have lunch there...I've never dined at the Space Needle restaurant (http://www.spaceneedle.com/restaurant/)!), the EMP (http://www.empmuseum.org/index.asp) (Experience Music Project) and the Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame (part of the EMP). It's definitely going to be a day! ;D
Do you have time to get a loan at the credit union before you eat at the Space Needle?
Well, I just got paid today and since I'm only paying for myself, I think I'll be okay...this time.
;)

I found this clip pretty hysterical. This guy (Randy Rainbow) took Mel Gibson's obscene phone rantings and combined theme into a fiictional phone conversation with Mel Gibson (who is supposedly dating}
WARNING: Some of Mel's rants may be offensive, even though a lot of it is bleeped.
Randy Rainbow and Mel Gibson (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=guU7EGkl98g)
That's pretty funny!
