I had a strange night of sleep in a bed filled with three strange cats. I was awake for much of the time, but I kep dozing. I remember bits of a dream in which Rob Berman, Sara Jean Ford, and I were in a coffee shop.

Much of my night was anxiety about today's procedure (https://www.radiologyinfo.org/en/info/fiducial-marker) and pondering my schedule for the time between kitty cleanup and my departure for the procedure.

I was going crazy trying to find a recording I had heard on WQXR which they didn't announce. I was almost sure it was Kathleen Battle singing.

When I found it, it turned out to be Heidi Grant Murphy.

I like too many orchestrations to have a few favorites, but I do like the work of these gentlemen:
Frank Saddler, Jerome Kern's choice until his death around 1922;
Otto Langey and Harold Sanford, Victor Herbert's men; Sanford replaced Langey when he left M. Witmark & Sons for G. Schirmer in 1912;
Robert Russell Bennett. nothing else to say;
Ted Royal, underrated;
Hans Spialek, known primarily for Rodgers & Hart, but he surprisingly shows up as a ghost writer on other shows;
Don Walker, really versatile, but his work on Carousel, She Loves Me, and Most Happy Fella re stunning;
Hershy Kay, truly brilliant, and his NYC Ballet scores are amazing;
Phil Lang, gave Jerry Herman lots of glitter and beautiful work on My Fair Lady and Camelot;
Sid Ramin, Robert Ginzler, Irwin Kostal, Ralph Burns, the best of the "new" guys of the 1950s and 60s;
Jonathan Tunick, always amazing;
Alex Lacamoire, he amazes me.

Last night -- and this morning -- I could not have felt much more exhausted from the day's rehearsals and tech work. Even my sleep was rocky, but I have now eaten a nicely prepared breakfast and am relaxing over a second cup of coffee. I even washed yesterday's dishes and am preparing to do a load of laundry. I've got plenty to do before this evenings dress rehearsal, but it will now all happen in good time.

My list of favorite orchestrations couldn't hold a candle to DR Elmore's, so I shan't even attempt it. And like he said, there are simply too many to name.

He does omit one orchestrator highly deserving of mention, guy by the name of Larry Moore.

Interesting choice there, Alex Lacamoire. I didn't know the name until I began getting familiar with Lin-Manuel Miranda's shows, and then I discovered in retrospect that he had been responsible for the 5-piece (or is it 6?) Bat Boy, which is one of the earlier, quite complex - and hugely fun - programmed-keyboard orchestrations. He's also a complete nut on how his scores are edited and presented on the page, a quality that warms my pea-pickin' little heart in this era of bland, generic looking error-ridden Finale pages.

As far as I'm concerned, these procedures and biopsies should require a full colonoscopy prep. It's a pain but so much easier.

Not at all! Think nothing of it.

I will respectfully disagree, however, on Fleet vs. Full Prep. I find those twelve hours (or whatever it actually comes to) of prep an abomination that shouldn't have to exist in an advanced civilization. There should be a five-minute "thing" they could hook you up to when you show up for one of those procedures that gets the damned job done on the spot. Failing that, the five minutes of Fleet would be my choice. I don't know about the help from the cats, though. I can see that complicating things.

DR George I am sorry you won't be able to make the trip to Portland.  Do you know what area he wants to go to?  There are still shops open, however, he downtown is a bit sad.

We went to 23rd Street and walked around.  The only store we shopped in was William Sonoma.  The downstairs was as beautiful as ever but the upstairs was totally empty  :-\

Do you think that the other "masterclass coach" in Tick Tick Boom (opposite Sondheim) is modeled on anyone in particular?

You mean the guy who was contradicted and made to look foolish by Sondheim every time he opened his mouth? The character name is Walter Bloom, and if that's a real person whose name I should recognize, I don't. My immediate impression was that he might have been a critic, since they MIGHT have let a few prominent ones sit in as well, maybe to help moderate (?). And who would be more likely to be such a blowhard? Probably a critic, as opposed to a known "creative". That was my guess.

Another day from hell!

The appointment was for 11:00.
I got a taxi at 10:15.
I arrived at Lenox Hill Hospital, took the elevator tp the fifth floor, and walked into the doctor's office at 10:45.
At 12:15 I was finally taken back to the "room" for the procedure, stripped, and put into the stirrups.
At 12:30 or so the doctor showed up.
Around 12:45 the procedure was over and I had to wait while they made sure I was okay.
At 12:55 I walked into the changing room and checked my cell phone' no word from Access-A-Ride.
At 1:01 I called Access-A-Ride and I was told I had a 5-minute wait. I was pit on hold forever, finally connected to a young lady who put me on hold for more than five minutes, then told me my ride would be there in five minutes. It was 1:25.
At 1:46 I got a taxi, and at 1:50 I got a message from Access-a-Ride that my ride would pick me up in six minutes. I walked into my apartment around 2:10 and never heard from Access-a-Ride. This really pisses me off.

Monday evening greetings!  At about 10:15 this morning, Richard accidentally gave his right foot a bath with scalding hot tea.  I immediately put cold compresses on it, but decided to call 911 when he started hyperventilating.  They took him to the ER, where it was determined he has second degree burns.  They treated him with pain meds and antibiotic salve and we were home after a couple of hours.

All in all, I would rather have gone to Target, which was our original plan for the day.

One thing to know -- it will change looks as it heals. It may look weird and awful, but sometimes that's how the healing looks.

I forgot about the risk of infection.  My hand became infected after burning it in the oven.  Fortunately I could easily see the beginning of the red strip from the infection and immediately went to a walk in clinic.

Good luck he can get an appropriately timed appointment.

Not really.  They were not the best paramedics I’ve ever encountered.

DR George I am sorry you won't be able to make the trip to Portland.  Do you know what area he wants to go to?  There are still shops open, however, he downtown is a bit sad.

We went to 23rd Street and walked around.  The only store we shopped in was William Sonoma.  The downstairs was as beautiful as ever but the upstairs was totally empty  :-\

Thanks, Jane, but it's fine.  I invoicing to finish today, so it's a good thing that I'm at work now. :) He said he wants to get an iPhone for one of his sons (he has two), but my sister's boyfriend said that Apple is having a huge sale (40-50% off!) begining tomorrow.  So, we might go to the Apple store at the Centralia outlet mall, and since I have tomorrow off, I can go then.

No tax savings at the mall ;)

If he purchases an iPhone here will it be compatible in Germany?

No tax savings in Centralia, but big savings from the sale will definitely offset the tax.

As for compatibility, my uncle expects it to be.  I guess you just need a new Sim card, and a power plug that converts the Euopean power to what this made-in-the-US phone uses.

Monday evening greetings!  At about 10:15 this morning, Richard accidentally gave his right foot a bath with scalding hot tea.  I immediately put cold compresses on it, but decided to call 911 when he started hyperventilating.  They took him to the ER, where it was determined he has second degree burns.  They treated him with pain meds and antibiotic salve and we were home after a couple of hours.

All in all, I would rather have gone to Target, which was our original plan for the day.

Oh, no! :o

I'm finally eating a salad (had Panda Express earlier) and catching up with everything.

Question for bk:

So, with the Studio Ghibli films, can one get any set or version? Do they all have the Disney dubs, which you can just turn off?

GKids/Shout Factory released them all. Not in a set, but all of them at very reasonable prices - under twenty bucks for the regular packaging - all contain the Disney dubs, but the English subs for the Japanese version are done correctly and that's key. I'm sure there are complete sets overseas, but I think you have to be really careful that they're not bootlegs. I recommend the steelbook packaging - most of them are twenty each and they're beautiful, But the regular release packaging is fine and those are closer to sixteen bucks.

My list of favorite orchestrations couldn't hold a candle to DR Elmore's, so I shan't even attempt it. And like he said, there are simply too many to name.

He does omit one orchestrator highly deserving of mention, guy by the name of Larry Moore.

Not at all! Think nothing of it.

I will respectfully disagree, however, on Fleet vs. Full Prep. I find those twelve hours (or whatever it actually comes to) of prep an abomination that shouldn't have to exist in an advanced civilization. There should be a five-minute "thing" they could hook you up to when you show up for one of those procedures that gets the damned job done on the spot. Failing that, the five minutes of Fleet would be my choice. I don't know about the help from the cats, though. I can see that complicating things.

:))

I like the idea of a "thing" that cleans you out in 5 minutes.

I wanted to go but we didn't make it.  The closest I got was seeing a man on the street holding a box.  I had other treats though and didn't really need a donut.
