Good morning, all!  Adrenaline does funny things.  Yesterday when i need it, it was going crazy to help me accomplish everything.  Well, today it's abandoned me and I can hardly stand, let alone move.  Every part of my body aches and I am not going up to Columbia.  I will run a few small errands and veg out here.

I had a doozy of a dream last night involving DR Ginny and Richard, former DR Jose, Brent Barrett, and others I do not remember.  It was something about a friend's opening a cabaret and everyone coming in for the opening, in which Mr Barrett was one of the performers. I had to fly home to Dayton OH because of some complication and I remember worrying about getting from Dayton to Middletown.  I guess I took a taxi but I have no idea now.

On Wednesday night at rehearsal, I had taken my starter pistol (a .22 with a closed barrel) for the actress to use in her final scene.  I didn't have any blanks with me or in the pistol.

After rehearsal, I thought she put it back in its box on the table.  When everyone was gone, I picked up the box to take the gun back home - and the box was empty.  I looked around a bit, but I didn't see it.

I messaged her when I got home, she said she had put it on the prop table with the glasses and bottles.  The prop table is behind all the furniture we have to move back against the wall after every rehearsal.

The next day - after the middle school group theatre workshop....the gun was missing.....it's gone.  Some kid took it....  We looked all over last night.  GONE.

So we have a mystery.  I would say it is my fault for not MAKING her hand me the pistol when she was done with it. Nobody can be hurt with it, unless they steal some .22 blanks and it misfires - which it will do if it's not cleaned properly after being used.

So....there you are....brats.  We had been missing books of matches as well, but I figured some high school smoker had taken them, and I put them in a new place.

Nice comment from an official in San Antonio in a HuffPo article:


However, officials in red states told The Huffington Post recently that they are prepared to implement the decision, going so far as to ready gender-neutral marriage licenses and set later office hours. Gerard Rickhoff, who oversees marriage licenses in Bexar County, Texas, said that if same-sex couples are discriminated against elsewhere in the state, "Just get in your car and come on down the highway. You'll be embraced here."

Keith sure can use some toe vibes.  Twice before we moved he had something removed and twice it returned.  He picked a podiatrist off of the internet and we went to her yesterday.  We liked her very much and she removed it again, and sent it out again for a biopsy.

One local doctor found, a few more to go.

Not very eloquently written, this passage from a news story does point out some interesting happenings on this date:


The ruling comes on a symbolic date. On June 26, 2003, in Lawrence v. Texas, justices ruled that states must stop criminalizing homosexual conduct. Then, exactly ten years later, on June 26, 2013 in U.S. v. Windsor, the Supreme Court struck down part of the Defense of Marriage Act that denied benefits to same sex couples.

The ruling in this case, Obergefell v. Hodges, also happened on June 26.

We are settled into our room in the landmark (aka OLD) building of the Westin St. Francis on Union Square.  Actually the old part of the hotel has been modernized and our room is quite comfortable.

We dropped our bags and headed for the convention center to get registered and scope things out a bit.  Took the shuttle (thanks, Keith!) back to the hotel and went across the street for a nice lunch.  Chilling until it's time to get a taxi to the pier where we meet our sunset dinner cruise.

I misread that as, "We are settled into our room in the laundromat."  Sigh.

Actually, I think your whole trip sounds quite delightful, DR Ginny.

Just took a huge jump to 48%.  I have high hopes for more such miracles over the next three days.  We just had our third $2,500 contributor.  And I'm still praying that some wealthy benefactor will come in at the last minute and take us where we need to go.

I have to go to a funeral tomorrow and watch my partner, Joy, compete in an Arthur Murray dance competition tomorrow. I don't do Arthur Murray anymore. I don't like the setup of the studios and how they somehow vacuum your wallet whenever you get near the place. But I have a number of friends who'll be competing, so I can go and enjoy watching them dance.

I chatted with another usher, David (pronounced Dah-veed, he's from Spain) and had a generally interesting chat during the pre-show (we both were taking tickets) and the first act.  Nothing too profound, just a nice chat.

Neither of us went in to watch the show, but he likes dance more than I do.  He had to leave after intermission, so during the second act, I read my Kindle and finished my book, "Small Favor," book 10 in "The Dresden Files" series by Jim Butcher.
