Last night's "An Improbable Peck of Plays 3D" had a full house!  However, a quarter of them were the Japanese students who got a $2 discount and four of them were performing their one-act and got in for free (as they should)...but it was totally full!  And everyone enjoyed it.  The only problem was that Andy, the stage manager (a kid of only 19 years old), was supposed to have a key to lock up The Midnight Sun after the show, but his dad took his (Andy's) car keys, and his key to The Sun was on the key ring!  AND NO ONE ELSE HAD A KEY TO LOCK UP THE THEATER! :o The couple of people who opened the theater had left by then.  It wasn't until the last stragglers were leaving that we realized that no one still there had a key.  Several of us started texting people who had keys and had left, and eventually TAO's new vice president (who was supposed to have had the building re-keyed a couple of months ago ::) ) was able to come down and lock things up.  I and three of the actors and one of their friends stayed at the theater until our VP was able to get there.  We were only there about 45 minutes longer than usual, so it wasn't a horrible situation.  Although, if we wouldn't have been able to get a hold of anyone who could come down, we were actually willing to spend the night...but fortunately, it wasn't necessary.

:D

Good morning, all! I slept well until 4:30, then lay wide awake for some time pondering the whereabouts of all the Jerome Kern scores of mine that I have been unable to locate in the office. I suspect they got sent to the Library of Congress with the McGlinnventory and i will never get them back.  That bothers me.

So, this morning our DR ChasSmith is kindly driving into Manhattan, and we will meet Anthony (and perhaps DR Ben, too) at Toyland, cart down the boxes of my possessions to the street and drive them uptown to my apartment. More clutter. I can then, in the next month, carry home books and things still sitting ton the shelves, but I'm grateful that the heavy part will be finished.

Tomorrow, I recover.

Well, as I knew would happen, I've slept about ninety minutes so far.  Could not fall asleep at all, then woke up at four.  So, I shaved and got that out of the way, and in a little while I'll try and get another two or three hours of sleep.

I am back from a successful move at Toyland.

Anthony and Charles and Larry are most likely up at Larry's apartment now unloading Chas' car. It all went very smoothly but there wasn't room for me in the car. I walked home. I stopped at Trader Joe's and got 3 bananas and a carton of strawberries. Now I'm about to go get a haircut.

Chas took a couple of pictures and has promised to post them later.

The next time I piss and moan about my life, I need to be reminded that, if i'm not so lucky in some areas of my existence, I am blessed with wonderful friends.  The move went really swiftly and easily.  As I'd hoped, Manhattan is quiet and rather deserted this morning. DR ChasSmith picked me up around 9:15 at my apartment, we were at Toyland by 9:45 and DR Ben and Anthony were there waiting for us.

Anthony had the idea to use the desk chairs on wheels to cart the 11 or 12 cartons out to the elevator, and it went really quickly. The doorman was upset with me for not asking him to use the freight elevator, but I think we resolved it, and we loaded up Charles' car.

He was very fortunate with parking spaces both at Toyland and on my block. Anthony generously volunteered to ride up with us, and we got everything into the building, up the elevator, and stacked in the hall outside my door. After a brief visit, Charles drove Anthony back downtown and I rode along for the fun of it.  As Charles headed back up to theGeorge Washington Bridge, he dropped me off, I came in, brought the cartons into the apartment and stored them, and the biggest part of the Toyland evacuation is over.  Thank you, gentlemen!

I could not have done any of this without their help.

Good morning. It was busy on the mountain today. A woman I have met there and hiked with occasionally helped a 20-year-old. She had never hiked before and had no water and was feeling sick. I wondered how she felt seeing us old gals doing just fine?

We were very happy to be of assistance. Anthony had a fun morning and enjoyed the ride back downtown with you and Charles. He was VERY glad that Charles agreed to take him back downtown with his books and suitcase.

He's in the living room right now listening to the Hi-Lo's CD(s). He's very happy and we're happy that you're happy.

Thanks to Charles for being a chauffeur!

And I'm glad you worked it out with the doorman at Toyland. I heard you speaking to him and knew something was not right but it sounds OK now.

I felt bad for the doorman being upset. He's a very wonderful man, and I would never have intentionally upset him.  When I next see him, I will be very apologetic. I think things are okay now, though.

Yes here, too. I have a terrible time putting anything into my eyes. It doesn't seem natural or appropriate. When I tried to wear contacts I could get the damn thing in my eye, but NOT where it should be. It'd slip off to the side and I'd have to futz and futz to even tell if it was there and, if so, get it to where it should be. Enough of that! Glasses are just easier.

Good morning, all! I slept well until 4:30, then lay wide awake for some time pondering the whereabouts of all the Jerome Kern scores of mine that I have been unable to locate in the office. I suspect they got sent to the Library of Congress with the McGlinnventory and i will never get them back.  That bothers me.

So, this morning our DR ChasSmith is kindly driving into Manhattan, and we will meet Anthony (and perhaps DR Ben, too) at Toyland, cart down the boxes of my possessions to the street and drive them uptown to my apartment. More clutter. I can then, in the next month, carry home books and things still sitting ton the shelves, but I'm grateful that the heavy part will be finished.

Tomorrow, I recover.

I'm glad you have tomorrow set aside to recover, and very grateful you have wonderful helpers.

Vibes the Jerome Kern scores are returned to you!!!

The next time I piss and moan about my life, I need to be reminded that, if i'm not so lucky in some areas of my existence, I am blessed with wonderful friends.  The move went really swiftly and easily.  As I'd hoped, Manhattan is quiet and rather deserted this morning. DR ChasSmith picked me up around 9:15 at my apartment, we were at Toyland by 9:45 and DR Ben and Anthony were there waiting for us.

Anthony had the idea to use the desk chairs on wheels to cart the 11 or 12 cartons out to the elevator, and it went really quickly. The doorman was upset with me for not asking him to use the freight elevator, but I think we resolved it, and we loaded up Charles' car.

He was very fortunate with parking spaces both at Toyland and on my block. Anthony generously volunteered to ride up with us, and we got everything into the building, up the elevator, and stacked in the hall outside my door. After a brief visit, Charles drove Anthony back downtown and I rode along for the fun of it.  As Charles headed back up to theGeorge Washington Bridge, he dropped me off, I came in, brought the cartons into the apartment and stored them, and the biggest part of the Toyland evacuation is over.  Thank you, gentlemen!

I could not have done any of this without their help.


You mustn't forget to take the freight elevator when moving-lol.  At my father's condo they didn't have one and I had to pad the entire elevator before putting furniture in it.

More than just having wonderful friends, you are lucky to have them close to home.

Has anyone ever lost a contact and now know if it is in your eye or not?

Yes!  One time, it took me almost an hour before I could first of all, confirm that it really was there, and then actually get it out.  Fortunately, it only happened once or twice, and it's been quite a while since it's happened.

I'm glad I'm not the only one.  I still haven't confirmed if this is still in my eye or not. :-\
I think it would hurt if it is still there.

Yes here, too. I have a terrible time putting anything into my eyes. It doesn't seem natural or appropriate. When I tried to wear contacts I could get the damn thing in my eye, but NOT where it should be. It'd slip off to the side and I'd have to futz and futz to even tell if it was there and, if so, get it to where it should be. Enough of that! Glasses are just easier.

I've had those problems and mostly wear my contacts when I go out for special occasions or when we travel.  Once in, or out, I enjoy the freedom of not wearing glasses but I see better with them.

I lost a contact lens in my eye once.....but it was back in 1982, and it was a HARD lens.  It was in back of my eye, and I could not feel it at all.  The eyeball itself has no nerve endings - is my understanding....the eyelids do, which lets us know we have something in our eyes.

I guess I'm just anti-clipping/shaving dogs.  It takes away the protective coat to keep them cool.  At least she isn't out long enough to get sunburned.  Why does she need to be clipped so short?   Won't she let you comb her at home?  Have you tried a detangler?

DR JANE is it a hard contact lens?  I don't think I have ever heard of a soft lens moving around the eyeball.....when one folds up on me, I usually find it stuck to the shirt I was wearing at the time.

If a soft lens is out of your eye for a long time and gets stiff, you can sometimes save it by putting it in the lens solution overnight and letting it soak in some liquid.

I think it may be luck of the draw as to who the publisher is, from what i can tell.  For example, one such video-oriented site has licensing agreements with some of the publishing houses from what i understand, so sometimes I'll get a notice reminding me that someone else owns the music, and saying they reserve the right to put advertising on it with all proceeds going to the copyright holder.

We got a VHS tape out of the library. It's an obscure Fritz Lang film called You and Me with Sylvia Sydney and George Raft. It's got music by Kurt Weill. It looks very interesting. Unfortunately, we couldn't watch it. The condition of the tape is bad enough that it won't play without jumping and other problems. We tried to adjust the tracking but to no avail. It's not available anywhere else. I hoped it might be on YouTube as one of the full out of copyright movies that are available but it's not even there. It's never been released on DVD that we can see and no other library in the area has a copy. When I return it to the library on Tuesday (they are closed Monday for Labor Day) I will tell them that it should be removed from circulation because it doesn't play. Darn!

But, after the disappointment we did watch a DVD given to us by Larry, called The Pied Piper with Donovan, Jack Wild, Donald Pleasence and John Hurt, with a cameo appearance by Diana Dors. It was lots of fun. Thanks Larry. I'll keep looking for You and Me.

If a soft lens is out of your eye for a long time and gets stiff, you can sometimes save it by putting it in the lens solution overnight and letting it soak in some liquid.

I have the disposable lenses.  They are great for traveling as you don't have to take any solution.  Since I don't wear them on a regular basis they don't get old sitting in a case.  The downside is they are extra thin and harder to work with.  Last night I was removing the lens, and as often happens I didn't manage to get it completely out.  At least I don't think I got it out.  My eye is a bit sore from searching for it but so far I haven't seen one.  Not finding the lens is a new experience for me.

This afternoon I started watching something or other and was suddenly so drowsy that I settled back into the couch for a ten-minute snooze, and woke up about two hours later.  Now of course I'm wide awake and will probably stay up later than I should.  But who cares, I've got the next two days free to do whatever I want or need to do, so, yeah, "who cares" is my attitude and I'm sticking to it.

I just sampled the Criterion ALL THAT JAZZ, taking a glimpse of each supplementary feature and spot-checking a few scenes of the film.  It's going to be so satisfying watching this, but I knew tonight isn't the night for it.  Gimme a couple of days.

Right, they are much better than a hard lens.  They flop though & bend easily.  Several weeks ago one split in half as I put it in.  I was in a bit of pain and it took about 20 minutes before I got both pieces out.

Not seeing was the problem.  I couldn't find it anywhere, not in my eye or on the bathroom counter or on my clothes.  Chances are if it landed on my blue clothes I was wearing a light blue contact would be difficult to see.   

I read a tip, that I haven't tried, on how to find a missing lens in your eye.  I will try it tonight after I have washed my face.

It wouldn't make a difference and you would be the one to look bad.  Moving forward get yourself elected to change committee rules ;)

Nah, I'm not going to bother with that.  It's not worth investing all that energy in it

LOL I would think not.  I did wink ;D

Do you know how the "Happy Birthday To You" lawsuit came out? 


I googled "birthday suit" and lots of non-topical postings came up.  I'll try something more specific

LOL!!!

I don't think it's a fair process when the law partner of one of the candidates chosen is on the commission and doesn't see it as a conflict.

I'm sure you aren't the only candidate who feels this way.  I'm surprised it is even permitted.

I agree. That sounds ridiculous. Although I guess all of the others on the commission had to have liked the partner too.  But still it does not seem right because of how it is perceived.

Thanks.  I'm just glad it's over

At least it didn't drag on for weeks before you found out adding to the time you were in limbo waiting for the interviews.

I can hear the rumble of the concert at the Hard Rock tonight, but it's so much better than Thursday that I'm not going to complain

True.  One of my friends today said what I went through was like going through the audition process for a part you really really want only to find out at the end it was promised to someone else all along

I wear soft lenses sometimes, and have indeed lost one in my eye a couple of times.  I think it's happened when I've been tired, I've worn them all day, and my eyes are a little dry.  One will obviously be off the cornea, because I'm not seeing through it -- but it can be tricky locating it. 

This stuff has to sound bizarre to anyone who's never worn contacts! 

I wish I could remember exactly what I finally did to get it back into place so I could remove it.  Probably tried flooding the eye with solution and rolling my eyeball around a little, and probably just waiting a couple of minutes for it to settle back.  I don't really know.  But it sure is annoying when it happens.  As I said, though, it's only happened two or three times, ever.

Back from session one and the Graae wedding.  The session was fantastic and I will go into detail in the notes.  There were only two times when we slowed down a bit, but the fact is we wrapped over an hour early and not only that we got one of tomorrow's songs so we're already ahead.  Incredible band and Lanny's charts are some of the best I've ever heard from him - and to hear my songs orchestrated like that is beyond amazing.  More later.

Was told that the wedding ceremony itself was funny and extremely touching and that there wasn't a dry eye in the house.  We got there around six and mingled until they began the entertainment for the evening.  I left about seven - just too tired and hot for me.  But what a crowd - chatted with Liz Callaway, who really wants to come and do a Kritzerland in LA and she's going to do one of the two performances of the Off-B'way show in NY, the 7:00 show.  Saw Vicki Lewis, Patrick Cassidy, Nancy Dussault, Karen Morrow, Faith Prince, Carole Cook, JoAnne Worley, Brent Barrett (he thinks he may be able to do the Sherman Brother show in NY), and lots of other terrific folk.

A story on Euan Morton's son, Iain, whose video reviews of theater have gone viral. His review of Sunday in the Park is fascinating for a kid his age.

DR Kate and her DH are on their way to his mother's 90th birthday celebration and I'm waiting for my brother to pick me up for dinner with our other brother and his wife.

A Very Happy Birthday to Kate's Mother-in-Law!
