I was putting all my props away just now, and realized belatedly that I performed the entire Music Man sequence in a straw hat that still had the bar code showing.
but I have not read the notes because I am still seeing Friday's notes
George isn't here? I hope my SLEUTH tape didn't blow up.

Nope. It's finished recording onto my DVD burner. :)

cool!! You are the best, George!
It looks like this year's "Best Actor" race is going to be a tough one to call. You have Michael Keaton, Steve Carell, Channing Tatum, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Eddie Redmayne. And the Film Awards managed to honor all five with various awards.
Can't sleep. Would you believe they were drilling the street (47th) till a few minutes ago ? I woke up at about 1:45 am and called the front desk. The guy said it took them by surprise but he could see why the city approved it since Saturday is a matinee day ! He said they had put a call in to the non -emergency number, 311. I don't know if that's why it stopped but I hope I can go back to sleep.
First DVD is now burning!
Continued vibes for Richard.
He even went up the steep and very narrow stairway at the yarn shop

Don't know who's planning on dinner tonight/late afternoon but I think it's Ginny, Richard, Deb, Kevin and me. Is there anyone else? Larry are you coming for dinner or just the show? Fred are you coming for dinner or you will just be there for the 9pm show?
If we do dinner I suggest sometime around 4:30 (4pm if we go to Arties on 83rd). 4:30 will give us plenty of time to eat, socialize and then get to 72nd by 6:30 ish so we can get settled for the show.
If we don't do dinner and just meet at the theatre at 6:30, that's fine too. I'm just throwing out suggestions.
Of DR Ben's dinner suggestions, I like Utopia, because of the varied menu and proximity to the Triad.

I second the motion!
Our 3 pm afternoon work meeting got moved to next week, so I'd love to join you guys for dinner.

Just put on a Streisand album (or BB) and you will be fine.

Sounds good. Now we have to hear from Deb and then the 5 of us can meet there around 4:15 or 4:30

Speaking of show sthat aren;t the same as Broadway, they're doing a scaled-down CAMELOT at regional theaters now. It's lovingly being called Cam-e-Little.

Better than what we called it when I did the show way, way back in 1975. We lovingly called it Camelsnot.
we are all connected.

Thanks, DR Jane. He even went up and down (which is worse) the steep and very narrow stairway at the yarn shop in DR Elmore's neighborhood. He drew the line, though, at swing dancing.
I try to avoid steep downs, hills or stairs.
I am going to go to the Healthcare.gov site to see what I can get for 2015. I got a letter that told me my premium would go up about $48 per month, which makes it higher than my subsidy, so I'm going to get another policy that will be under my subsidy total.
I can only get the coverage until the end of August when I become Jrand65 and become eligible for Medicare, but I will cross that bridge when I come to it.
Last night, I ushered a production of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf. Excellent. Great performance from the guy playing George. The Martha was distractingly wigged to look like Liz Taylor, but not in the move of Virginia Woolf.
Only about 100 people showed up, including about 30 students, but they were quiet and attentive throughout the long three hours of the show.

I'm not sure how to take that, TCB!
They had done a scaled-down 10-actor My fair Lady, so i guess a scaled-down Camelot was inevitable.
I think I'll go get some fruit and a drink whilst they clean the room
~ ~ ~ CONTINUING GOLDEN THROAT VIBES ~ ~ ~ for bk!!!!!!!
I must say, after yesterday's fruit and today's the fruit in NY is AWFUL. I only ate two bites yesterday and I don't even think I made it to two today. Pretzels are good, though.

Over-react much?
The fruit in New York is NOT awful. You got some bad fruit. Deal with it. I get very good fruit all the time and I've lived here for 35 years!
I've shaved, will relax another fifteen minutes and then shower. At four or thereabouts I'll mosey on over to The Triad and finally see the layout of the room and the stage, chat with our sound and light guy, and then sound check at around five-fifteen. I gather they open the doors around six-thirty for the seven show. Really hoping we get people just showing up, but it does look like we're getting up to around sixty for the early show.
DR elmore3003 - you symptoms sound alarmingly like a detached retina. I hope that is not the case. If so, it requires immediate attention.

I sent an email to Dr Moazed,asking if I needed an emergency appointment to have my eyes examined. If i call the HMO itself and try to make an appointment, they'll tell me he's not available until around March, but he can authorize an emergency situation so I'll wait to hear from him on Monday.
The HHW Group will be meeting in front of the restaurant in 15 minutes!

I certainly hope you hear from him on Monday morning. The sooner the better.

Does M Barnum know Dr Moazed?
I don't know why I'm posting all of bk's photos from FB over here, since you are all friends of his there anyway.

LOL, DR Cillaliz. It sounds like someone needs to turn their frown upside down.
Cilla, didn't you post recently that bought a new coat? How nice. What's it like? I saw a puff jacket online the other day that I liked. I didn't think I needed another jacket, but ordered it, anyway. I don't have much occasion to wear such things, but we do--very infrequently--have a bit of rain. That's my rationale.http://www.younkers.com/shop/brands/calvin-klein/calvin-klein-3-4-down-with-inset-waist_840488.html (http://www.younkers.com/shop/brands/calvin-klein/calvin-klein-3-4-down-with-inset-waist_840488.html)
Thanks, DR Jeanne! It was an intensive week. I am enjoying my down time today!
Open enrollment starts today, as DR Jrand64 pointed out, so next week will be crazy.

But if the cast is perfect, those three hours can really fly by.
Pamela Reed just did Martha at the Seattle Rep. She is now doing VANYA AND SONIA AND MASHA AND SPIKE at Seattle's ACT Theatre. She has gotten raves for both shows.

I was just thinking of Pamela Reed this morning. There's a woman in my Viennese Waltz class who looks enough like her to be her sister.
Loved Reed in an old sitcom called "Grand" that was yanked before its time.
Good morning, all! I slept late. I've been very tired lately.
Now that I am up and moving, I have various and sundry things to accomplish, mostly work on Paint Your Wagon and a vocal score for Jerome Moross' Civil War musical Gentlemen Be Seated. i'm happy the Moross work came through since i hope it will help to pay my way through Christmas.
I've also decided to put up on eBay some expensive books I own and hope they sell at a good price. I hate to do it, but I've got to survive until some good paying work comes in.
Hi Jeanne! I had a post saying "Boo" or whatever to my happy snow post on facebook. So I announce that I was deleting all negative posts about the snow. I immediately got another negative post from the same person, lol. I deleted it

Well I dislike snow, so I did find it odd that you would be happy to see it. There may be a bit of snow here tomorrow (when i checked earlier it said less than 1 cm). i am not too worried about that, but I think there could be more on monday which i really do not want. Maybe you can take my snow. :)
I guess I had better get out my winter boots. I will stick with snows until there is snow.

We are under a winter storm watch from now until 9 a.m. on Monday morning with from 2-4 inches of snow expected with single degree temps and high winds as well.....

I liked Pamela Reed until she hit Carroll Baker with a baseball bat in Kindergarten Cop.

When we get 2 to 4 inches, we call it a blizzard.
DR Cillaliz summer is my favorite season and winter is my least favorite. :)
I know some people like winter. And I know some people like snow. But I guess when you are used to so much snow it is pretty rare for most adults to be wanting it to snow early. Because of shoveling and driving conditions...
DR TCB maybe you mean Leslie Nielsen.

Pretty much memorized DR TCB......two of the best scenes in an otherwise mediocre movie.....as Carroll Baker wrote in her memoirs:
I told Joseph E. Levine that I had a contract to do the movie with another producer-director, and he said "I piss on this contract.....I piss on that movie....and I piss on you."
Then she tells the story of how the movie was made....and the chapter closes as she writes:
"In the end, he pissed on the contract, he pissed on the movie, and he pissed on me....."
She forgot the audience.....

This isn't aimed at you personally and I understand that others don't feel the way I do, but winter is my favorite season and summer is my least favorite. Every year I am so happy that it snows and if I say that, people start telling me no it's bad and going off on some rant against winter. I am tired of it and I'm not going to put up with it on my facebook page. I am also going to stop being quiet about liking winter. I've started telling anyone who grouses about it in an elevator or walking down the halls in our building or wherever that it's my favorite season and I really don't want to hear their complaints. Of course, they can still complain, I just don't want to listen to it.
Jennifer, I agree with Cilla. My favorite season is Autumn, but I love snow. I would love it if we could have a white Christmas.
Pictures were taken but not by me so I have nothing to post, picture-wise. Those will come from Vixmom and possibly others.
After the show we spent about 10 minutes outside talking to the lovely Miss Marni Nixon (a dear friend of Larry's). She, too, is a treasure.
Thanks to Bruce for bringing the shows to the East!

I'm with DR Cillaliz on this! Give me snow and slush over heat and humidity any time.
Jennifer, I agree with Cilla. My favorite season is Autumn, but I love snow. I would love it if we could have a white Christmas.
Maybe people who have mild winters and not a lot of snow want snow. It gets cold here and we have way too much snow so I am in no hurry for it. I am really hoping that we don't get snow till at least December.
It was a lovely night! I am safe and sound back at my hotel posting from the business centre picture s were taken but yoiu willhave to wait until tomorrow, or more likely, Monday evening before I can post them
What a dream, Vixmom. I played that same album over and over and Feed The Birds was my favorite song. It always made me cry
