What an exciting adventure it must be to start rehearsals on a totally new and exciting project.  It is too bad you couldn't get someone to film the whole experience -- the birth of a new Sherman Brothers' musical.

I have no idea how authentically Italian anything I eat is, but I like all the standard favorites.

In trying to recall favorite Italian restaurants, I have fond memories of a couple of visits to Chianti on Melrose.  For a neighborhood jernt, I will always miss my Two Guys From Italy on Hollywood and McCadden or whichever block it was.  Not sure I ever ate in Miceli's. 

Had a meal to die for on South Street in Philadelphia, and have no idea what the restaurant was.  Actually, I'm assuming South Street because that's where a bunch of us were walking around earlier that evening.  I'm blanking on Italian foods in other places I've lived or been to.

Spaghetti & meatballs - although at home we just have the hamburger tossed in....you get MORE meat than with a meatball!  I try different sauces, since we don't make our own....and I like Prego, although Newman's best is okay, too.

Chicken Al Fredo is a close second - if the sauce is good - if not...ugh.

What a horrible medical tale, about an injury that's hardly uncommon.  Good lord, now doctors can't agree on something like that??

I asked my specialist why the ER doctor missed that I needed a pin.  He said it was an easy miss in ER.  My shock is that the ER doctor would say it will heal with only a sling.  My ortho guy was only upset I had been told I could use my arm in the shower before he looked at it.

I personally was glad I showered and washed my hair before I saw him.  Just before my shoulder was broken I was headed home to do both.  It was a week later before I could get my hair washed.

Crazy day so far.  The Asian actress I'd just found has dropped out - she didn't "realize" it was a community college production.  I don't know HOW she didn't realize it when I was completely clear about it.  I also told her a thing or two about me, how I have always enjoyed mixing pros with raw talent and how rewarding it's been, how every show I've done at LACC has received major reviews and raves at that and been up for awards and won them, and I don't think she has a clew as to what people have come out of that department.  But it is sooooo typical.

Sharon and I met up in the Schuster Center lobby in plenty of time to get good seats for the dress rehearsal of Dayton Opera's The Consul.  It was well done, but I don't need to run out for the CD to listen to over and over.

More friend time for me this evening when my book group meets at Jan's in Dayton to discuss 1984.  I listened to it, narrated by Simon Prebble.  I'm not sure I'd ever read the whole thing before and now I have.  Sharon (who's also our book group leader) and I agreed that there were some parallels between the opera we saw last night and the book we're discussing tonight.

I need something light and fluffy to read now...

Annabelle is quite lively this afternoon, running through the apartment and climbing the shelves.  She also showed a little devious streak, playing up to me while I was assembling my meds for the next two weeks when all she really wanted was a serious peak into the drawer where I store them.  Drawers have become her new fascination and she's dying to climb into one and see where it takes her.  Her curiosity is getting really intense and I like that.

No cavaties. So I’m having ice cream.
Key lime pie and coconut.

I have a couple of Monarch chrysalis that have been hanging for several weeks....two of the first I saw.....they are very black, and I am afraid the weather got the best of them and they are not living....

We saw the paddleboat on the river today, just as a big jet was flying low over it to land at the airport.  It looked super cool, as if the past was meeting the future.

Back from rehearsal two.  We ran everything from yesterday a bunch of times, then broke it down to the quartets, duets, and solos, although I have to say the majority of the musical material is Levi - who isn't even with us until Monday

What a horrible medical tale, about an injury that's hardly uncommon.  Good lord, now doctors can't agree on something like that??


Thanks, Chas.

TCB (and anyone else interested in the Titanic), have you heard about this?  I just saw this article on Bing.com's news feed:

Tragic Titanic letter surfaces: Victim's sea-stained note up for auction (http://www.foxnews.com/science/2017/10/17/tragic-titanic-letter-surfaces-victims-sea-stained-note-up-for-auction.html).


I had not heard of this letter before, George.

On Netflix, I have been watching this Kathy Bates sitcom called DISJOINTED.  They seem to really enjoying being able to use the "F" word.

The show takes place in the marijuana store run by Bates.

I keep thinking the show will improve, but I don't think it is going to happen.

I prefer the Nextflix sitcom, THE RANCH, starring Ashton Kutcher, Debra Winger, and Sam Elliott.
Title: Re: THE JOURNEY BEGINS AND THE WONDERFUL FIRST REHEARSAL

They also get carried away with the "F" word, but the show is better written and acted.

Saturday is going to be a stay inside day.

Saturday is going to busy day for me.  I have call-backs for Cinder Edna, then I have a supervisors' union.  Then, my family's weekly dinner.
