It is snowing. And that is supposed to turn into a lot of rain. And it is supposed to snow more Saturday and Sunday nights. Yuck.
Very strange thing happened to me yesterday:
One of my co-workers gave me a set of keys to pass on to a company which bought one of our buildings.
I handled the keys briefly and put them in an envelope.
About 30 minutes later, I had a metallic taste in my mouth.
About an hour later, the metallice taste was stronger and I had a tightening in my chest.
An hour later and I was back to normal and remain so (if whatever I'm feeling like is actually normal).
Never have had an experience like that!
Up from a short nap. Back to the paper. It feels like it's always back to the paper. I have hit page 40. That at least is news that seems headed in the right direction.
Have a UK first edition right here (the true first) - it's 651 pages
I always looked forward to Christmas. I looked forward to all the family at Easter until the year the family all piled into a couple different cars while I was in the bathroom at the church and I came out and they were gone. It's funny, I remember that almost every year. It wasn't intentional, but I wasn't that old and it was most unpleasant

This week's MODERN FAMILY was very funny.
BACK...
With neither emissions nor tires done!
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is my morning thus far.

It was just sort of amusing, DR John G., not frustrating. I'm fine with the one-day delay on getting those things done.
I'm sure several DRs will vouch for this, but while I've left NY, I still have WQXR (a great radio/internet station) with me and had become a member quite a while ago. There's a new article on the WQXR website about bad things audiences do that annoy performers and performances:
http://www.wqxr.org/#!/story/top-5-most-controversial-audience-behaviors/
We don't know if he really remembered us, but he "came out of it" when we started in on the music, and was mouthing the words to some of the hymns with tears in his eyes, so that was gratifying that we got through to him.
In the absolutely infuriating department, two boxes arrived today - one containing twenty softcovers of Red Gold - those are freebies and useless to me. My five free hardcovers of Red Gold also arrived in a box with ten There's Mel's that I needed. The other ninety Red Golds did NOT arrive and will not arrive until Monday - because they shipped one day later than the other two boxes. Of course, I wasn't told that - I was told they all shipped together on Monday. So, instead of this running smoothly, we're now up against the wall in terms of getting everything shipped before the helper is gone for eight days. Whether Grant can get here on Monday to get the signed limitation sheets in the books is anyone's guess, but if he can't I'll just do that myself and hope for the best. Monday is also a Kritzerland rehearsal that starts at three and doesn't end until six-thirty, so if they don't arrive before two then I don't know how I'm supposed to get them and when I'm supposed to sign them - perhaps the helper will go pick them up and bring them here.
Great Filichia on Friday. This is the first in-depth look at what the creators of the stage version of Rocky have done and that is his specialty, whether he likes the work or not. And I'm surprised he likes it as much as he does. I'm interested in hearing the score because it's Flaherty and Ahrens, but I'm not won over by the concept just yet, though he makes a strong case for it.
I'm going to go. Whatever swept over me 15 minutes ago hasn't knocked me over.

And I am home from a looooong day. From 10:00 to 12:30 Rob rehearsed the orchestra on transpositions and cuts, then we broke for lunch and a move to another studio. From 2:00-6:15 we ran through all the music with the cast. I didn't get to talk to Cheyenne, but he sounds fantastic. I did spend bit of time gossiping with the wonderful Jessica Molaskey, whom I hadn't seen sine we recorded the Moross album "Windflowers."
I saw several friends and had a very good time. The orchestra sounds wonderful.

We were talking about this at the rehearsal today and i was hoping someone would invite me. It was completely unexpected, but i want to see Sierra Boggess in a role (I've only seen her in concert with John Williams' orchestra), I've got several friends in it, and I love the show. Speaking of Sierra, I saw her sister Summer, a fabulous cellist, at the rehearsal today

It isn't that I have that many lines, it is just that when Mr. Laurence speaks, he is very loquacious.

I just wish I could see the scene where you give Amy the piano - it made me fall in love with Mr Laurence when I read the book
Tonight the Vixter and I watched a dvd she received as a Christmas present ; Jesus Christ Superstar filmed in the UK on the Live Arena Tour - it was set in modern day. It was interesting and effective and the Vixter loved it --- I would rather have seen a toned down version set in the appropriate time period ... but then again I am still waiting for the final scene when the show ends

He gives it to Amy in the book? I give it to Beth in the play. I think that is what kills her.

Ben Forster's Jesus is such a troll someone should build a bridge over him.

Oh, I forgot. The show ends before the Resurrection. I have never seen the show on stage.
The piano kills Beth? I thought it was scarlet fever!

Well, she gets the piano in Scene 7, and she is dead by Scene 12. You do the math.

BK felt not a thing, thankfully. Perhaps the sound was so loud watching Sherlock that I just didn't feel it, but no pictures are crooked or anything. It's hard to know what's true and not true because the stupid news people are trying to make sure that everyone is panicked - they're calling all these "pre-quakes" to a bigger one. Seismologists interviewed say, "No, that's not usually the way it happens." It would be nice if it just stopped already - too many in to short a time. But these idiotic people are saying there were "pre-shocks" before other big ones, and that simply isn't true at all - then again, they'll say anything to keep people watching. Facebook is a whole other story.
From DR Cilla:Actually, they didn't notice I was missing. I started walking home, I was fuming and crying and a neighbor stopped and asked why I was walking. I'm sure I was quite dramatic about it. They gave me a ride home and when I went in the house, no one had realized I was gone.QuoteI always looked forward to Christmas. I looked forward to all the family at Easter until the year the family all piled into a couple different cars while I was in the bathroom at the church and I came out and they were gone. It's funny, I remember that almost every year. It wasn't intentional, but I wasn't that old and it was most unpleasant
How long before they realized you were missing? I've been left a few times in my life. The first time was at the airport. The worst part was after the long while it took me to find them no one had noticed I was missing.
Yes I am
I've been thinking. The whole office thing has been bugging me. Not the moving into the other room, I should have done that from the beginning, but the way I seem to be making room for Bob. He originally just wanted to use the one room. Now he's talking about when his wife starts as his secretary (not yet) and how he'd be glad to put up a cubicle or whatever for her. I was trying to figure out what to do to make room for her, but it occurred to me tonight that I don't want to. This isn't "our" office. It's my office and he's renting a room. I'm just not willing to change anything else or add more people to the space. I worked too long to get here and I am where I want to be. I'm not going to move or change anything and there'll be cubicles over my dead body. So, I'm just going to have to tell him he can stay as long as he wants to, but when he's ready to expand his practice, he's going to have to go somewhere else
So, yes I'm still up...I feel like I finally figured out what's been bugging me and it's a relief. Now I think I'll get some sleep., Night Tom
