I hope I'm not spreading idle gossip, but word about town is that Marc Shaiman and Scott Wittman have broken up as a couple, and yet are still working together quite wonderfully and professionally. I know Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor worked together after their own split-up, as did Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon after their own split-up, but are there any others in show-biz that have done this?

Hmmm... Alas, I don't believe that's idle gossip. Especially since I may know one of the "reasons" for the break up.

-Now that was idle gossip.

Mr. Kevin Spirtas has come and gone and settled up on his Kritzerland sales over the weekend, so at least I have cash until the new ATMs arrive on Friday.

I ate three chicken tenders and some shrimp sushi and some fruit at around one. I'm hungry now, but don't know if I actually want to eat anything else, although I did have a great run this morning.

I'd forgotten about Sonny and Cher working together after their break-up.

And I guess Mary Tyler Moore and Grant Tinker must have continued working together after their split-up as well.

The benefit staged reading of WIT was quite an event artistically, but I was astonished that it didn't come close to selling out, despite the worthiness of the cause. We bought our tickets, but when events like this have to "paper," I often wonder if they would have been better off offering those seats in the back at a lower price rather thna putting it on the papering services.

Glad to hear that Kevin was successful in selling his cds at the event. It is a good CD.

Well, I amused myself with Shall We Dance, while waiting for the rain to end. Seems to be only a light drizzle now... I hope I'll have any sun at all tomorrow. I feel the need... the need to weed!

A letto, a letto. Buona notte... Andiam...

Just before retiring - Bruce, I am so impressed that you have kept running every day. Bravo.

Sleep tight, pals. Sweet dreams.

Still raining here - rats! The stream is just boiling over the rocks. It unsettles me - that much power roiling around like that. And still the downpour continues. DON'T LIKE IT!!!

Where are you with such bad weather?? Here in Olympia, it's been overcast most of the day, but no rain whatsoever.

George! If you're on later - congratulations on the weight loss and the acquisition of a swell new shirt for such a bargain!

Thanks and thanks!

Didn't Linda Eder and Frank Wildhorn work together after they split? And Julie Andrews and Tony Walton?

Pleasant dreams to you also PennyO!

I am just exhausted.

Several of us converged on mom's apartment and helped her unpack...my brother-in-law, who has been quite grumpy lately and he made my mom cry...she is 77 and moving to a new home 400 miles away from the place she has lived since 1949, leaving behind all her friends and a few of her kids and grandkids... and my brother-in-law has to start getting testy with her!!...I have not seen my mom cry since 1987 when my brother died and I was not very happy about this.

So...my nice little "Leave it to Beaver" existence turned into ROSANNE-lite for part of the day.

And then after my sister drove my brother-in-law home (she was very angry at him) I went and got coffee for myself and a chocolate muffin for my mom in hopes of manking her feel better..and gave her time to lay down and take a nap...and then a lady drove her truck into my car and bashed the front end in.

I am just exhausted.

I am watching a very enjoyable service comedy from, I believe, 1951. Every time a new supporting player comes on you just sit there with your mouth open, because almost everyone in this film went on to become famous. More in the notes.

DR MBarnum, I'm so sorry to hear about your terrible no-good day. :-(

Best of Oz soothing thoughts to you DR Michael B.

Special vibes for MBarnum for his stinky day...

I also send a hug...

RAther stressed about something coming up and I am not quite sure how to deal with it. I have this gut feeling I may be in more danger than I bargained for. But I refuse to let the perptrator win. I refuse to. I just need to work on a game face for the 13th.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #169 on:** June 04, 2006, 11:48:55 PM »

I do know I am as terrified as heck. I have not clue how it will go down.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #170 on:** June 04, 2006, 11:58:37 PM »

Sorry to unload and I do apologize...

At least my experience will miss the media circus that will happen in Fargo in about month when Alfonso Rodriquez goes to trial for alledgedly killing Dru Sjodin.

I have not been able to rest too much since my mind is replaying the events.

DakotaCelt · « **Reply #174 on:** June 05, 2006, 12:07:36 AM »

The laughs and wit here is nice. A nice escape

George · « **Reply #175 on:** June 05, 2006, 12:08:45 AM »

That's what we're here for!
