Just jumped on-line for a second now that I'm back home. It's not as hot outside today as it has been, but it's no picnic either. Tomorrow promises to be a little cooler and with some rain which we could use.

While I was cooking and eating lunch, I did manage to watch the rest of MEET THE PARENTS which I had started last night. All of the really funny stuff came in the second half of the film, so I did laugh and I saw why I bought this in the first place. I hadn't watched this in probably five years.

Out tonight at my friend John's house where we will all watch WORLD TRADE CENTER together in HD. I'll have a report later. He's going to record TORCHWOOD so we can watch that right afterwards.

I started my day off with some lovely hate email from a Farmer fan (one assumes a Scientologist) who proclaims me in short order:  disgusting, an idiot, a dumbass, and a jackass of the highest order.  It's so nice to know one's writing is reaching an audience.   ;D

Jacky Terasson is terrific--I believe he was featured in the same issue of Jazziz that I was some years ago.  He's gone further.   :D

And we hope he gets more appreciative fan mail!

Damn and double damn, I didn't see Skip.

My throat is feeling a little funky and I hope it stops feeling funky asap, as I really don't need that right now.  I think it's a combo platter of going from humid and hot into air conditioning every day.

I shall go to dinner at six-thirty and hopefully be home by eight, so I can just relax and try and get a good night's sleep.

Four NYMF shows have already sold out and have two performance extensions.  While they're trumpeting this amazing fact, the do neglect to say that all four shows, I believe, are in ninety-nine seat venues that many not even have ninety-nine seats (plus NYMF withholds between ten and thirty tickets for each performance).  So, it would follow that it's a little more difficult to sell out 199 seats, and, of course, there is no frenzy going on because of it.  

I think both Starfighter and The Brain are selling decently and even better.

Here’s how I see it:
There’s a huge set of people who’d like to sing for a living.  They’d like to open up their throats, to share their talents, to make music that pleases many an ear, to entertain on stage in a musical.  I think this is a wonderful calling, a fine ambition.

Within this set, there’s a certain subset who want it all without doing the work.  Singing often looks easy when you see it on TV, so naturally there’s dilettantes with the foolish notion that their voices will carry them to fame and fortune without putting in the real work and learning anything.

There’s also a large subset who understand that the performing profession takes a lot of hard work, training, preparation, education and exploration.  It’s these people I hang out with, many of my closest friends started as hard-working students.

No doubt, DR Jose will encounter members of both subsets in Charlotte.  So far, he’s only told us about the woefully under-prepared.  He’ll play many more auditions before the weekend’s over.

I was lazy today and didn't do anything at all.  I snoozed in my chair and watched some TV and that was about all.

I told myself that I it was ok because I worked so hard last weekend.

My only worry is that I smashed my big toe while moving my computer last week.  I dropped the edge of the CPU on it.  It made a cut in the bottom middle of my big toe and I didn't think much about it.  Well at the moment, I thought a great deal about it because it HURT.

It thumped this week but again, I didn't think much of it.

Today I looked at it and it's all red.  I cleaned it and put some triple antibiotic ointment on it.  I hope I don't have to go to the doctor about it.

Well, unless it's infected, the best the Doc can do is extend his sympathy!

Thank you for the good wishes about my toe.  I'm sure it will be alright.  Of course it would help if Bear would stop stepping on it.  He's done that a couple of times today.  

I love him but he's a heavy boy!

As soon as the nasty antiseptic wears off, he'll start washing it!

I confess that I was one of the ones who learned the hard way that sheet music may not be written in the key you expect it to be or even sound like you expect it to.  

However, I will say I have a very good ear.  

Many years ago, my music teacher and I were working on "Memory" from "Cats".  

It was on her piano at one lesson  so I didn't bother to take my copy out of my bag.

Well, she started to play it and I knew right away that something was different.

I told her so and she said, "No way!" so I pulled my copy out and when we compared the two, sure enough, it was a different key.

Dr Danise. Big toe vibes~~~~   I broke my big toe playing volleyball years ago.  I had to walk with a cane for awhile.  The Doctor suggested crutches, but please, a cane is much more stylish (I say as I sit in my old blue jeans and sweatshirt)  If it still hurts on Monday, I say grab a cane and make the most if it.

I was actually written up in the small town gossip column about why I was walking with a cane...lol

Growing up, I thought I didn't like filberts. Then, as an adult, I learned I like hazelnuts. I like them better as hazelnuts.  ;)

No wonder I'm allergic to filberts!
