Oooo, sounds intriguing...
Waiting at the doctor. They want to do an ultrasound. I suspect it's a kidney stone.
I'm thinking about beginning a music preparation class for musical theatre amateurs.
And now it's pouring outside. What a shitty day.

Looking forward to interesting news.
More tsuris from the NYMF front: A long email of score corrections this morning.
Why this "Finale vocal score" wasn't proofed ages ago before it was sent to me is musical theatre amateurism I find hard to cope with.
I have two kidney stones, both rather large and both in the same place they were when I had an CT scan last fall. So, they're not the problem.
So there are no answers yet. I just have to hope the pain goes away. That and take some aspirin.

Not so much related to DR Elmore's situation with the rain today, but we have a charming little outdoor summer theater (nothing's under cover except the band) and they're getting decimated this year. They just lost half of their Into the Woods performances, which were surprisingly good, and were so desperate to have a closing night last Saturday and give the audience something that they gave an impromptu concert version of it for the 70-some people in attendance, crammed inside the big old house adjoining the outdoor property. Tonight's the opening for their West Side Story. I met the director and music director who both seemed really promising, and this opening night looks to be rained out as well...without much difference in tomorrow's forecast.

Sheesh, another dark rainy Friday.
And yet, an oddly comforting one. Sometimes I like days like this.
FRIDAY!!!! FRIDAY!!!!!

Very good! Very good!
The very good news about the National Theatre production of Follies is that my adopted son and best friend Joshie will be assisting Jonathan Tunick on the orchestrations. I am very proud of him.

Watching "The Loved One," which I had recorded from TCM a week or two ago.

Uneventful cardiologist appointment today. Paramedic Rob says my blood pressure and heart rate are probably better than his. I'm waiting to hear from the hospital about scheduling a (routine) stress test.
I've been watching a British series called WHAT REMAINS. It's quite good. On Britbox.
A Happy Birthday to one Ringo Starr, who had the good sense to turn 77 on 7/7/17.
TOD - my listening is an audiobook: Girl in Translation by Jean Kwok. The narrator, whose name I don't know, does a great job with the Chinese accents. The story is told by a young Chinese immigrant girl who imitates her Brooklyn neighbors very well.
This is the July selection for one of my book groups that meets next Wednesday noon. Have to knit and color a lot in the next several days in order to finish it!
Just home from a wacky day and was catching up when the electricity dehumanizes (I actually typed "shut") down. It just came back on. How does "shut" become dehumanizes? Someone explain.

Good evening. I decided that I am not ready to commit to taming a feral kitten at this time. So the adorable little kitten is back with his mothers and the other kittens in the backyard. I'm just not ready.

And of course, in honor of Ringo - my tribute to the Michelangelo exhibit downtown:
Tune of Ringo’s “You’re Sixteen, You’re Beautiful and You’re Mine”
With each stroke of your brush, I turn to mush
No one beats your design
Your Sistine is beautiful and so fine
Can’t afford to see Rome, but close to home
Folks are getting on line
Your Sistine is beautiful and so fine
To get in just costs fifteen
So let’s head down and make the scene
Since it’s nearby a transit hub
It may draw crowds, so hurry, bub
So I’m ready to go, to your big show
It says they’re open til nine
Your Sistine is beautiful and so fine
