Good morning, all.

My, it looks like I’m in here early today.

Good morning, all!

When I was a kid, my parents would very often visit my mother's sister Lois, who lived on a farm near Columbus, OIhio, about a 90-minute drive from Middletown. My dad's brother Jay had married Irene, the sister of Harold Clevenger, who married my mother's sister Lois, so he and my dad were close, and my dad liked spending a weekend helping with the farmwork - shades of his childhood in Appalachia - and my mother and Lois were like twins.
-
I enjoyed the Rodgers & Hart notes.....
TOD: I am tempted to say ALL of them....but I will single out
It Never Entered My Mind
Zip
-
It is 25 degrees headed for 29 degrees.
-
The gist of all that earlier paragraph was that wen we visited, my brothers and I gad to share a double bed in a large 2nd floor bedroom with my cousins sleeping in a second double bed. The 2nd floor was neither insulated nor heated, so on really cold nights we bundled up under4 layers of blankets and quilts for warmth. The worst part of the morning was having to get out of bed and change from pajamas to our day clothes because the cold was really intense.
-
At the moment, I feel very much like that 12 year-old visiting my Aunt Lois. It's much more pleasant to stay buried in blankets and quilts than to pull them back and get dressed. The irony is, I have heat in the apartment, and when the outside temperature is in the high 30s, it's too hot in the apartment, but when the outside temperature is below 29 degrees F, it's an iceberg.
-
It's 14 degrees now, going all the way up to 29 today. We won't be back in the 30s for another few days, but when that comes, it'll feel like spring.
-
So, when the alarm rang this morning at 5:30, I turned off the alarm, crawled back into bed with the cats and thought about weinters at my Aunt Lois' farm in Columbus or my dad's mother's farm in Appalachia and thought I would stay in bed all day ratrher than get up and dress. When I finally decided it was time to make a move - there were cats to feed and possinly some fresh hell to face - it was nearly 7:30. And so I'm up.
-
Good morning, friends.
-
And others.
-
Strange dreams, half-remembered.

DR Elmore, I'm always fascinated with your mentions of Appalachia.
Our backgrounds are similar, in that I was born and grew up in Columbus, with Appalachian roots on my mother's side, but yours was Kentucky and ours was the West Virginia Appalachia. But when my dad remarried some years after my mom died, his second wife had strong Kentucky Appalachian roots. I would have liked it if they had driven me down into and around her hometown territory which was somewhere directly south of Cincinnati, maybe 90 minutes away, but the timing for that never worked out.

I've always considered Lorenz Hart the poet laureate of the broken heart. Sondheim continually kicked Hart's lyrics around, but it's his opinion, not mine, and I'd be happy to tell my old pal Steve where I think he's written a dud or three. Still, it seems pretty apparent that Steve's original lyrics for "We're Gonmna Be All Right" were modeled on Hart's "He and She."
So, Rodgers & Hart remain my favorite songwriting team. Unlike his glorious work with Hammerstein, Rodgers' wonderful tunes really swing to Hart's lyrics, and, when intended, Hart's lyrics break my heart more often than Hammerstein's do.
Do I have favorites? Perhaps, but they change daily with my moods. I'm very, very fond of the wonderful "Every Sunday Afternoon" from the late (1940?) Higher and Higher (Wash the dishes, dry your hands; Change your wishes to commands) and the heart-breaking "Bye and Bye" from the 1925 Dearest Enemy (Every cloud just flies on, Love is on the far horizon; You'll be my sweetheart bye and bye); I also love the silliness of "I'd go to hell fa ya, Or Philadelphia."

There's a similar trend about reading hand-written music.

My grandmothers farm outside Louis, Kentucky, was not far from the West Virginia border.

My grandmothers farm outside Louis, Kentucky, was not far from the West Virginia border.
My mom's family were centered in the Morgantown WV region, and I've gotten to know that area fairly well. There was a branch of that family in Charleston that I have a vague memory of visiting, but I never knew them like the others.
She and her parents moved to Columbus in the mid-late 1940s because they knew there was better employment to be found there after the war. That's how she ended up meeting my dad, who had grown up in Columbus and had returned from the war and was going to the same church.
Ah, family history stories...

Oh DR IRIS that was so nice!

I just finished making the first recording for the person needing help on the harmony, which I should have finished yesterday but it took me till today to get sufficient feel of the damned piece. Dare I say this song is from Dear Evan Hansen, whose score - or anything about it, really - does not exactly warm the cockles of my heart? Or the heartles... (you know the rest)...
-
I meant to add...
In my email I was reminded that I'd made a recording last year for this same person, just playing the accompaniment for one song from Spitfire Grill, and I listened to a few bars of it. OMG. I'd forgotten how I'd quickly come to love that score, and right after the dreadful Dear Evan song ..... what a difference. What a DAMNED difference.

Just made my appointment for the first shingles vaccination, today, 4:00 pm at Walgreens.

My Funny Valentine
I Didn't Know What Time It Was
Babes in Arms

Thanks for sharing the nominations, DR Freddie and DR Jrand74! Wicked is the only nominated film I've seen so far, though I want to see A Complete Unknown. I expected those best picture / actress / supporting actress nominations, all well deserved.
-
So what are the rules for original score? Obviously nearly all the songs in Wicked are from the show, but there is a lot of new underscoring. Is that's what is being nominated?

Having met in the library where I worked, if we’d had a wedding reception with dancing, this would have been our “first dance.” My favorite version is Ella Fitzgerald’s.

I love The Spitfire Grill! Lakewood Playhouse will be doing it in the late spring/early summer! I can't wait to see it!

I've always considered Lorenz Hart the poet laureate of the broken heart. Sondheim continually kicked Hart's lyrics around, but it's his opinion, not mine, and I'd be happy to tell my old pal Steve where I think he's written a dud or three. Still, it seems pretty apparent that Steve's original lyrics for "We're Gonmna Be All Right" were modeled on Hart's "He and She."
I made a similar suggestion on castrecl back when Encores revived Do I Hear a Waltz? John Esche ripped me a new one.

Ultra sounds of the abdomen require drinking tons of water before the test. If they were late getting me in I would begin to panic and hyperventilate. I learned to drink half of my water at home and then drive to my appointment very early. Then I would sit with a book and drink the rest of the water. That eliminated bumpy roads and a long walk from the parking lot to the waiting room.

Well, I just finished getting a physical and am waiting to have labs drawn. I hope they get to me soon because I have to pee and that's needed for one of the tests! :o
Yay! I was able to pee! ;D
Tis a privilege to pee. So said a musical..
Exactly!
And I believe everything musicals tell me.
But, of course!

Isn't there also a song "You're still glowing, you're still flowing, you're still going strong"
Well, almost that anyway.

The first special guest at dinner tonight was this speckled king snake
-
Then there was this charming tarantula
-
Laura has to go out hiking to see such beauties. I just had to go to dinner.
-
It’s warmer tonight. Only 38. It’ll get colder, but that’s better than it was.
-
Back to Bobby Deerfield.
-
Marthe Keller is not my favorite.
-
I think I preferred her in Marathon Man.
-
But in Fedora and here, she does really register.
-
She’s apparently 79 now.
-
Fascinating, eh?
-
Let’s move on!
-
Seven!
-
Howdy, Rupert!

Most of the shows are okay, but The Lightning Thief was a colossal disappointment.

John, did you know that they were going to be brought?

Not your favs, George?

They live at the museum. I did not know that they were going to be brought out, no.

A local children's theater did this last year, but I didn't see it. :-\
-

I've seen snakes live, but never a tarantula. I don't know how I'd feel about that.
-
I kept my distance
-
Good night, all.
-
Ah, the page that shall not be named.
-
Finished with my viewing. Yes, I managed to watch a motion picture.
-
Had four pieces of pizza at twelve-thirty.
-
And four pieces of pizza had me at one o'clock.
-
Whatever THAT means.

The movie was a German movie from Germany.
-
Brand new, at least to here. It debuted on Prime a week ago.
-
Book has been sent to the proper proofers to properly proof.

And never EVER forget that proof spelled backwards is foorp.

I think maybe I'll have some cheese right now - then it'll be almost fourteen hours until the blood test sans food. They suggest eight to twelve.
-
Or maybe I'll have a frozen Cherry Ripe.
-
Or maybe a frozen Cherry Ripe will have me.
-
One way or the other.
-
Must write some notes.
-
It must be done.
-
I do feel that page eight is waiting in the wings.
-
It should be entering now.
-
See?
-
Page eight isn't very sporting.
-
A little gauche perhaps.
-
8!
