Well, I have to get out of here soon to go to my consultation for everybody's favorite procedure:
a colonoscopy later this summer.  I'm late on this one due to having such a horrible insurance coverage prior to jumping aboard Medicare and a supplemental plan.

TOD:

I "liked" BADLANDS, DAYS OF HEAVEN and THE THIN RED LINE.

As a cinematographer, he has few equals.

However, he is really not a good storyteller.  His films are far too long, slow moving, esoteric and often boring.

I've avoided the last few.  He's just not my cup of tea.

Or, perhaps I'm just getting too old.  The kind of movies I enjoyed 20 years ago hold no interest for me any more.

And I am back, with the appointment for MY PROCEDURE set for August 31st.

At 7:30 in the morning, yet.  First one of the day.  Which means little or no sleep at all the night before.  I tried to get one later in the day, even looking on different days, but I guess a few other people have had that idea before me and nothing's available.

Rehearsal was fine last night.  Of course....this was supposed to be EASY since I was using experienced actors who had played the roles before.....and of course since my lead dropped out, I had to cast someone who needs a lot of HELP and GUIDANCE.....so my easy job has become a chore....

And I don't have the time to devote to my role in 1776 that I hoped to have....so I won't be quite as prepared when I go into rehearsals there in a few weeks.

TOD:

What everybody else is saying about Malick.  Agree with BK re Badlands and Days of Heaven.  I have The Thin Red Line here but haven't yet watched it.  I watched The Tree of Life and -- as I recall, because the memories are vague -- I thought the actual story of the family was, at least in part, fairly gripping.  But the other stuff?  Are you kidding me?  I'll give the film another go one of these days, but I was bored, man.  And that's all I've seen of his so far.

Malik lives in Austin and filmed his latest, Weightless, there with a huge cast including Ryan Gosling, Cate Blanchett, Natalie Portman, Patti Smith and plenty of local musicians.

I will see it because it gave my friend Deborah her first two IMDb credits, as a restaurant patron and as a casting assistant. The movie opened in London last Friday, which was her birthday.

Well, I've taken a week off from being productive in the music department.  I need to go downstairs and change that.

Had a sort of half-arsed dream about the upcoming GYPSY last night.  What I actually need to do in that regard is work on the iPad to get my ForScore annotation skills and my pedal page-turning sharpened up.  This is going to be my debut playing from the iPad, and it could turn out to be quite the clusterf**k if I'm not fairly practiced at it.

I want to use the expression (volume) pedal on this one as well, so I'll have four - count 'em - pedals to cope with:

Regular sustain pedal

Patch switch pedal
AirTurn page-turning pedals (set of two, for forward and backward)

Leo (and Ben) came to Xanadu callbacks with me and slept through the entire thing.  It was a long day.  The drive to pick up Leo was about 3+hours, and coming home was a little more.  Now it's time to start working on a routine.

Other than that, it's business as usual.

I did it about 3 months ago.  They sent a cameraman/interviewer to my home.

Unfortunately, the disc is only available in the UK.

But, they paid me well.

I'm so angry right now I could explode.  I'm so careful about these spoof e-mails and even though some are convincing I haven't fallen for one of them in over a decade.  This morning, going through my e-mails I have one saying someone tried to log in to iTunes ordering a book and if it wasn't me to click the link.  Now, I'd JUST gotten one of these yesterday because I'd logged in via my iPad and they always alert you when that happens from a device you haven't used.

So, like a complete moron I ignored everything they always tell you and clicked through, where I was presented with an absolutely authentic looking Apple page to enter all my info.  And like an even bigger moron, and because I'm still groggy, I actually start to do it, starting with my iTunes user name and password.  I get as far as social security number when my brain finally clicked in and I stopped instantly, erased everything else and got the hell out of there - I was literally about fifteen seconds from pressing the send button.  I instantly cleared my cache and my history, and am hoping that the page itself contained nothing harmful, but I don't know how to tell that.  But unless they were on the page with me because I clicked it, and they were following along, they didn't get the social, but did get the address, date of birth, etc.  I'm changing my Apple ID password right now.

Jamie Lee Curtis was delightful this morning and well worth staying one night longer than we might have if there had been a different closing session speaker.  When I got back, Richard and I went to lunch then to the nearby hospital that's in the same system as the downtown facility where we spent Saturday afternoon and night.  Our mission today was to get a CD containing all his reports and images (CT, MRI, X-Ray) to share with his Ohio doctors.  That was easy-peasy and now we're back at the hotel relaxing and getting ready to pack for tomorrow's departure.

And I am back, with the appointment for MY PROCEDURE set for August 31st.

At 7:30 in the morning, yet.  First one of the day.  Which means little or no sleep at all the night before.  I tried to get one later in the day, even looking on different days, but I guess a few other people have had that idea before me and nothing's available.

We prefer the first appointment of the day.  It is ok if you don't get much sleep because the doctor will make sure you get a nap ;)

Leo (and Ben) came to Xanadu callbacks with me and slept through the entire thing.  It was a long day.  The drive to pick up Leo was about 3+hours, and coming home was a little more.  Now it's time to start working on a routine.

Other than that, it's business as usual.

Awww.  He is a cutie :)

I'm so angry right now I could explode.  I'm so careful about these spoof e-mails and even though some are convincing I haven't fallen for one of them in over a decade.  This morning, going through my e-mails I have one saying someone tried to log in to iTunes ordering a book and if it wasn't me to click the link.  Now, I'd JUST gotten one of these yesterday because I'd logged in via my iPad and they always alert you when that happens from a device you haven't used.

So, like a complete moron I ignored everything they always tell you and clicked through, where I was presented with an absolutely authentic looking Apple page to enter all my info.  And like an even bigger moron, and because I'm still groggy, I actually start to do it, starting with my iTunes user name and password.  I get as far as social security number when my brain finally clicked in and I stopped instantly, erased everything else and got the hell out of there - I was literally about fifteen seconds from pressing the send button.  I instantly cleared my cache and my history, and am hoping that the page itself contained nothing harmful, but I don't know how to tell that.  But unless they were on the page with me because I clicked it, and they were following along, they didn't get the social, but did get the address, date of birth, etc.  I'm changing my Apple ID password right now.

Watching "The Wanton Countess," but not too closely.

This is the English-language version of Senso, and even though Farley Granger uses his real voice, you can tell it's dubbed.

The English script was by Tennessee Williams and Paul Bowles, but they must have been drunk or high or something when they wrote it. Fake poetry at its worst.

Clementine in the Kitchen. It's a memoir from a family from the Northeast who move to France just before WWII. They get called back to the States before the war, and they bring their French cook with them.

I don't want to be a judge. When the Chief Judge called me she asked if I was going to apply. I said "Should I?"  She told me it was a great job.  I knew right away I didn't want it so when she asked if I needed to think about it before accepting the position on the commission, I told her that I was so happy with my current situation that I didn't need to think about it.  She was pleased and said she really likes me on the commission. I do feel honored to be on it and I do take it very seriously.
