Post by: Jrand74 on May 03, 2016, 05:18:38 AM: Last night, even though JO MARCH wasn't there, we did the entire DELIGHTED number. It really went well....all of the performers are good and like to dance, so it was easy.

Only one combination didn't work, so I changed that. I uploaded the choreography pages AND a video to the Secret Facebook Group for the show - so they can print it out for themselves and go over it.

Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: ChasSmith on May 03, 2016, 06:27:10 AM: Speaking of splurging...

I'd dropped several pounds by low-carbing it over the past month or so. That went to hell in a handbasket this past weekend because things were crazy and I found myself gorging on fast food and other nonsense. That's over as of last night. (Don't ask.) Today I'll be REALLY good, and by tomorrow I'll be keeping myself on a balanced but light diet until I'm back next week. Then, back to the hardcore dieting which needs to be done at home.
Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: ChasSmith on May 03, 2016, 06:32:59 AM: In addition to working on music at the keyboard, I need to listen to In the Heights again before seeing it Thursday evening, and I must REALLY buckle down and ketchup on Do I Hear a Waltz? for which I'll be attending the final performance next Sunday evening.

Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: John G. on May 03, 2016, 07:41:31 AM: As a food writer, I've had a few days of eating in the extreme. The one that comes back to me was eating at eight barbecue joints in one day while doing research for the book. There were leftovers, to be sure, but there was also a lot consumed.

Post by: Amy on May 03, 2016, 08:02:22 AM: TOD:
Wow, this is a tough one to answer. I know I eat the most food in one day during the holidays when people are bringing a lot of Christmas goodies to work. I think I can easily eat 3,500 calories in a day, which is triple what I should eat. I remember a couple times as a teenage or in my 20s where I went the whole day eating only desserts and then vomited at night. That wasn't a lot of fun, so I tried to always make sure I ate something nutritious during the day after that.

I was a member back in the late 80s/early90s, but dropped out when I went back to work. Looking forward to rejoining and spending time with these ladies again. If you've read Helen Hooven Santmyer's ...And Ladies of the Club, you'll have a pretty good idea of what this group was like 100 years ago. And may still be...

I'll work on it tonight. There's much to do tomorrow and Thursday, so I want this off my back.
Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: ChasSmith on May 03, 2016, 01:50:40 PM: DR Elmore, what exactly is it you're doing with that title song? Or anything else in the show? I know you said orchestra parts weren't in great shape.
Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: ChasSmith on May 03, 2016, 02:07:04 PM: I had nothing except a cup of coffee this morning, and was kind of craving a bagel, so I just satisfied that little craving with an everything bagel, lightly toasted, with cream cheese. And another cup of coffee. I'm kind of rarin' to go and thinking of having a third (and last, or I'll be up all night) cup. What the hell, I don't have to be up all that early tomorrow. And I could stand to get a lot more stuff done this evening.

Post by: George on May 03, 2016, 09:02:46 PM: Lines are better, and we shaved six minutes from last night. That's good. :)
Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: George on May 03, 2016, 09:22:46 PM: Act two has started.
Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: George on May 03, 2016, 09:23:34 PM: We had a longer intermission because we got act one notes as soon as act one ended.

I spent the last few hours gathering some pictures from various parties, dinners and get-togethers. I found some very nice photos. I'll need to work up a few and post them here later.

We're talking millions of dollars not getting to charities after months of campaigning for the day of the Big Give. Sad.

Oh my, that is not good at all.

Post by: George on May 03, 2016, 11:28:06 PM: Last night, I forgot my tablet...tonight, my wallet.

WTH??
Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: George on May 03, 2016, 11:29:37 PM: Forgetting my tablet was not as much of a concern as forgetting my wallet.

Post by: Jane on May 03, 2016, 11:47:58 PM: We're you able to return for it?
Title: Re: SPLURGE
Post by: Jane on May 03, 2016, 11:52:35 PM: Today John Hart's new novel, Redemption Road, was published. Since I was 1st in my library queue I already have it to read. I have other books checked out that will now have to wait or be skipped altogether.
