Actually, as a joke (and because I hadn't specifically made any decisions), I used it for the bows tonight, and everyone, of course, laughed, but Katelyn the director liked it!  So it really will be the bows music. ;D

I slept well, but I had a lot of strange dreams.  The weirdest was the Tony Awardsm and Joshie and I were up for a show we had orchestrated. We seemed to be a both a dress rehearsal and show, during which ness the following occurred:
  1. A parade of nominated costumes was screwed up when a costume designer pulled her costumes
  2. I kept losing my seat in the audience as I kept running backstage
  3. While I was backstage, I saw Annabelle and Thatch running about
  4. At ntermission Hal Prince and one of the producers got into a fight about parking tickets
  5. During the intermission, just before we went back on air, I saw Thatch stick his head up over the seat behind the stage manager; before I could warn her there were two cats loose in the auditorium, the program began and I woke up.

Sasha was an animal rescuer in Ukraine. She chose to stay in Ukraine to take care of her animal rescues. Last night, a Russian rocket hit her home. Her son found her body this morning. Another innocent life ended by war.

RIP Sasha.

I had liked Anna Netrebko before. Not now. From an article on the Met dropping pro-Putin artists:

In a pugnacious Instagram story that has since vanished, Netrekbo added: "It's especially despicable from people from the West, seated comfortably in their home, not fearing for their lives, to pretend to be be brave and pretending to 'fight' by putting in trouble artists who asked for nothing. This is just hypocrisy of them. These people who think that being on the 'right side' allows them everything and excuses their unfair behaviour are just human s***s. They are as evil as blind agressors. No matter which side they are from. ❤"

I always thought she was not that good and coasting on her beauty. What really irritates me about her comment is that the countries outside Russia, particularly the Met and Salzburg and her CD/DVD royalties, have made her a wealthy woman.

So, the receptionist looked about her computer screen and asked, Did you say you had an appointment on Wednesday?

She then said, William Moore?

I said, Yes.

Food was a disaster. Ordered a burger and fries from Islands, which is literally five minutes away. The driver picked up the order and then sat in his car for ten minutes a half-block from the restaurant before finally driving here - you can watch all this on the tracking map. I knew what I was in for but he made sure to drop it at the door and text me after he'd already driven away. The good drivers text when they're ON their way, they ring the bell when they arrive. Food was ice cold, of course. I nuked it all but once you do that it's just an entirely different taste experience. I got a complete refund.

I had an appointment this afternoon at 3 p.m. with a chiropractor.  The same one that my cousins Debra and Butch use.

He was very thorough, took X-rays, showed me images of my spine includng a small area of compression at the base that was causing me pain.  He made a couple of adjustments and then used a machine on me to stimulate areas of my back.

The result was very pleasing.  I still have twinges, but I can move with ease -- upright, as it were -- and can stand and sit without pain.

I have a follow-up session Wednesday.  It feels so much better to be me this evening than it has in past days.

Today was truly the worst, pain-wise.  I blame yesterday's activities at the church and funeral home and all the standing and sitting that went on.

I am on the mend.

They've already announced indoor mask policies here - now there'll be new ones?

It is reporting this as new news, as if California is changing the mandates now.  That was for LA you read about begging last Friday and it wasn't for everyone.

"Los Angeles County will no longer require that people wear a mask indoors at businesses and venues starting Friday, as long as the businesses verify that everyone ages 5 and older are fully vaccinated."

Food was a disaster. Ordered a burger and fries from Islands, which is literally five minutes away. The driver picked up the order and then sat in his car for ten minutes a half-block from the restaurant before finally driving here - you can watch all this on the tracking map. I knew what I was in for but he made sure to drop it at the door and text me after he'd already driven away. The good drivers text when they're ON their way, they ring the bell when they arrive. Food was ice cold, of course. I nuked it all but once you do that it's just an entirely different taste experience. I got a complete refund.

Yikes! :o

They look to be the same items, perhaps with slight variations. But dishes like goulash is eaten across Eastern Europe.

The one that sounds most wonderful to me is this dessert: Slovanian Cake (Bird’s Milk Cake), chocolate cake with layers of custard buttercream, chocolate ganache, blueberries, sour cream.

The restaurant, Jane, is Biga on the Banks.
