Well, you've read the notes, the notes had a million stories and were naked, and now it is time for you to post until the million naked cows come home.

I agree with BK, DRs!

Someone, pick a date for the get-together. At this time, with my needing Access-a-Ride, dealing with the walker, and hoping my health is good that day, I cannot be the one to settle the time, place, and date.

I just wanna show up, hug everyone, and have a loverly visit. It's been too long since I last did that.

Last night around 8:00 my cell phone got all wonky: I could not make calls and my Verizon note was "Emergency calls only." I was completely freaked out. By the time I had opened the computer and called Verizon, around 8:30, the phone was fine.

I did sleep rather well. Stella usurped Thatch's place on my bed, and she stayed with me most of the night. Thatch settled for the foot of the bed, and Annabelle remained on her princess pillow next to me.

I've booked my Access-a-Ride for tomorrow, so after kitty cleanup today, I will return to my overture. Yesterday's work on the piece was to recompose and score the four transition bars I had written on Sunday. I think it's better now, and today I can begin scorign the slow section of the piece.

I agree, too, let’s make this thing happen.

BK said he’s available from Sunday to Sunday. With my tech week and opening, that leaves me exactly ..... that second Sunday (10/2) to drive in and get together for a get-together. Otherwise,  normally, I'd be happy to pop in whenever.

I would expect that others can join BK at an additional time, and I'll be sorry to miss. But I can commit to being there on Sunday the 2nd, and I hope that works for BK, DR Elmore, DR vixmom, and whomsoever else? So can we start by setting aside that afternoon/evening?

We might have watched Naked City when it aired, but I can't say I actually remember doing so.

I do have the complete series on DVD, but shamefully have watched very few episodes. That needs to be rectified posthaste because I know it's a treasure trove.

So I went back to Pet Supplies Plus and bought Elvis a brother.....so now we have Elvis Aaron and Jesse Garon.

Jesse is white with blue markings.

There has been some conversation and Elvis is hopping around the cage....I think they are planning a jailbreak, but I can't be sure.

Jesse was talking at the store - but he is pretty quiet now.

Lovely! Pictures please!

I will post some photos in the next couple of days.

The cage I have is plenty big for TWO.....as was stated on the box when I bought it....

Elvis is sitting very close to Jesse and doesn't let him wander too far.....Jesse doesn't seem to mind.

I am playing the one and half hour of parakeet voices that I downloaded from YOU TUBE and both now and then answer to a chirp or two.

October 2 should work fine. We're shooting at a rehearsal space, one of the Ripley-Grier locations, so I'll be close to wherever. I'll find out what time we wrap that day.

Vixmom, if you want to come be in an episode, Friday Sept 20 we're at The Cutting Room club where we need audience members, and if that doesn't work, Monday Oct 3 we're at The Triad doing more club stuff.
