Well, I must be off.  I have to take a shower and then travel the 80 miles or so to Issaquah to see the last two shows in the Village Theatre's Festival of New Musicals.  Have a good day, everyone! ;D

Of course, I will get dressed after taking a shower and before I leave my house. ;)

Oh, okay, no posts in an hour.  I'm on my way to lunch and then a little post-cabaret get-together.  There will be hell toupee if this trend continues.

Davy Crockett hat, as well....AND a powder blue leisure suit with blue silk flowered nik nik shirt.

Oh that was YESTERDAY's topic.

You can imagine my embarrassment.

Very warm here.

I found some actual SEA SALT at the Dollar Tree, so we can use that at the World of Wisdom.....instead of paying over $3 a pound plus shipping for the STUFF!

Well...today is our monthly board meeting, and I really think we are going to have to face the fact that NO local black actors are going to audition for TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD and that some of the community is hostile to its production.  Astonishing!!

Which means we can bring some actors in and have to PAY them.....grrrrrr not a good thing.....or cancel and let the #*$&&* win!  I am just not sure at this moment what will be done.

Depressing.

I'm back from my six hour stint at the hospital.  When I got there, my dad was sitting up and I learned that he had decided to sit up most of the day.  He is walking rather steadily now, and he came though his morning bit of physical therapy with flying colors.  There's a rumor, to be confirmed in the morning, that he will be released tomorrow.

Now, if we can get Lady M in line!  My dad was in a talkative mood today, and he and I had about 90 minutes of private time to talk about cabbages and kings, his plans, and his hopes.  His humor is coming back, and they began a new round of Zoloft this afternoon to fight his depression.  "I need that!" he said when the nurse told him what it was for.

I did ask him to tell me his account of events that involve Lady M's claims that she had to strap him into a a chair after he fell after throwing up on her.  She conveniently had a set of bungee cords lying around the breakfast table.  He concedes to the nausea but insists he neither fell nor was strapped into anything.

Greeting from Issaquah.  Had a lovely time, and did my first two talkbacks ever, which I think went OK (or at least the director assured me that I didn't say anything TOO stupid).

Can't make headway on the trivia contest on the library computer, so I'll have something to do Monday when I'm back in NY. :)

Thanks again, Penny and George.

Had the same problem when THE WIZ was done here, so the director simply cast the best available talent regardless of the race.

Can't do that with MOCKINGBIRD, of course, but occasionally that's the alternative.

Had a delightful afternoon of video viewing. I began with Thursday night's rerun of THE OFFICE. It was the Valentine's Day episode, one of my all-time favorites. Enjoyed so much seeing it again.

Then came WHIRLPOOL. What an ingenious movie! It fell apart just a bit at the end, but for the first 2/3, it was very skillfully put together plot-wise, and all of the performances were just fine. Nice to see Jose Ferrer playing bad before he won his Oscar and became a leading man.

And I assume this was the print used for the DVD transfer because it looked superb.

Finished the afternooon rewatching CONSPIRACY, the Kenneth Branagh-Stanley Tucci starring vehicle about the 1942 meeting that led the Final Solution. Riveting from first minute to last. SUperb performances by all concerned. Colin Firth is particularly memorable, and Branagh won a much deserved Emmy for a commandingly restrained performance.

A lengthy phone call prevented me from reading in my book earlier today, so I'll do so now. Then, off to clean my bathroom and then on to tonight's slate of TV programs.

Request time:

I would appreciate a copy of the "Jose Walking/Eating" tour.  I think maybe DR Dinny or DR CillaLiz had a copy.

My very good friend Lisa will be in New York (at the same time as DP Colin and myself) but will not be "free" at the weekend.  This will be Lisa's third stay in NYC so the usual "tourist musts" have been covered.

We are hoping to meet with Lisa when we are there.

An IM would be appreciated - and email then provided.
