Great, or as they say in England, “brilliant”. 😊

AAR asks us to allow 30 minutes for car to arrive, but my appointment was at 9:340, and every time I scheduled a pickup ride for today, I was offered either a pickup time of 8:20 or 9:05. I decided 9:05 was the better choice rather than sit in a waiting room forever.
Title: Re: FISH STORY
Post by: elmore3003 on August 24, 2022, 06:25:42 AM
So, this morning I called at 8:35 to see how transportation looked. The young lady I s-16 poke to said they had not yet assigned a car. I then got a text message telling me I could track my ride 15 minutes before travel time. Thinking this was a p[ositive move, I went to the lobby to wait for a car.
Title: Re: FISH STORY
Post by: elmore3003 on August 24, 2022, 06:28:21 AM
Around 9:00 I called again. Still, no car had been assigned. Then I got a text message saying my ride would arrive in 62 minutes!

I called my HMO and canceled my appointment and came home. At 9:05 the driver called to tell me he was here. I told him I would not be traveling with him today. Then I called AAR and canceled my ride home after my appointment.

Not a question but I thought you’d like to know that I came across to items for The Creature Wasn’t Nice (That’s how it was billed ) on EBay. They were 2x 2 tranperancies. One was the cast in the space ship and other was Cindy on the planet. They were sent to Show time and The Movie Chanel for promotional purposes.

I’m a night person, and usually fall asleep well after midnight, actually closer to 1AM.

Fortunately, his role (the scripted light and sound board operator) has very few lines and will be played by the co-director of the show.

I'm the ACTUAL light and sound board operator, so that will happen without any problem. ;D

Had a bout of insomnia last night or this morning. Read some poetry and some Woody Allen shorts, including one about My Pillow, and nothing helped.


Woodsy Allen shorts?  I don’t even read my own shorts.

Around 9:00 I called again. Still, no car had been assigned. Then I got a text message saying my ride would arrive in 62 minutes!

I called my HMO and canceled my appointment and came home. At 9:05 the driver called to tell me he was here. I told him I would not be traveling with him today. Then I called AAR and canceled my ride home after my appointment.

I am so sorry, Elmore.

Hi, Tom.  How are you this evening?
Title: Re: FISH STORY
Post by: TCB on August 25, 2022, 12:13:10 AM
Hi TCB.
I may have missed this, but I was wondering if you are under the care of a physiatrist.

Hmmm, I thought that was the pain doctor.  I should have asked.


You know, I am wondering if that is the confusion around my doctors. Dr. McCaleb was shocked when I said that the doctor at the pain clinic didn’t order x-rays for the pain in my hand.  I am going to a “pain clinic” and he is thinking it more like the PB&J that Iris was talking about.
Title: Re: FISH STORY
Post by: TCB on August 25, 2022, 12:17:57 AM
I have been shocked by this pain clinic.  They take a urine test to make sure I am taking my pills and not selling them on the street for $5.00 a pill.  I have bring my pill bottle in each time so they can out that I am using the correct number of pills.  The PA sees me for about ten minutes, asks about pain level at that moment, and sends me on my way.
Title: Re: FISH STORY
Post by: TCB on August 25, 2022, 12:20:06 AM
And that costs me $45.00

It reminds me of these Protective Payees that get assigned to SSA and welfare clients who can’t be trusted topay there own bills.  These PP’s Get a cut off the top for handling these clients money, but mostly just hand over the money no questions asked.

You should offer to use their house for the cast party anyway.

George, have you ever held the cast party for a show you were in?
Title: Re: FISH STORY
Post by: George on August 25, 2022, 12:31:32 AM
George, have you ever held the cast party for a show you were in?

No.  Every place I've lived has been too small...although where I live now has a clubhouse, so that's a posibility.
Title: Re: FISH STORY
Post by: George on August 25, 2022, 12:32:41 AM
But other people who've hosted cast parties have all lived fairly close to the performance spaces, and my place is further away.
Title: Re: FISH STORY

I think our clubhouse has to close at 11:00p.m.

Back in the 90’s, when I lived in a mobile home out on South Hill, I was doing a show.  Nobody had a place and I kiddingly said I would host it but no one would want to come.  Everyone got all excited, but I said I was kidding because no one would want to drive out.  They kept saying it would be too far, they all said wasn’t a problem.

Finally I said yes, we had the party, and all anyone could talk about was how far away my house was.
