Good morning, all! Yesterday was an interesting day with lots of good moments and one really awful one. In the morning JoAnn and I ran erands dealing with my dad's estate: closed his post office box, checked on a bank account, went out to his vacant house and carried away items of furniture and various chochkes. My brothers and I had a good meeting abouot the estate and then a meeting with the attorney about various things left to be done in closing down everything. Right before the first meeting I received an email from the FAT conductor of little talent and huge ego. He was sending a whiney and rather vicious email to another, raking me over the coals with such ambiguousallegations as "heard from a friend of a friend."
After the meeting with the attorney, I needed to do some damage control, and then JoAnn and I watched AMERICAN IDOL.
Today, I shortly leave for Oxford, OH, to talk to music and theatre students and attend the first performance of their production of CANDIDE. I shall be E&T all day. Speaking of CANDIDE, today is the birthday of Mary Costa, the voice of Disney's sLEEPING BEAUTY, who played Cunegonde in the 1957 concert tour of the show and in the 1958 London production opposite Denis Quilley and Laurence Naismith.
DR Ginny, I'm waiting for my family to get their schedules together before I phone anyone, I've been unsuccessful so far in achieving any schedule from anyone!
