I Dreamed A Dream
Words & Music by Alain Boublil, Claude-Michel Schönberg

There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft
And their words inviting
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting
There was a time
Then it all went wrong

I dreamed a dream in days gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving

Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung, no wine untasted

But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
As they turn your dream to shame

He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when Autumn came

And still I dream he'd come to me
That we will live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather

I had a dream my life would be
So different from this Hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.

Topic of the Day...I rarely remember dreams. It's been years since I could remember anything for more than a few moments after waking up. $:-\$

I must say that price-wise In 'n' Out is pretty amazing.

Oy, more work! Brent Barrett just called about his Las Vegas concert in March, and my publisher is engraving three of my scores so I'll be getting those to proof soon.

Just be glad no one is pestering you with a little job like a song for church.

DR Cillaliz - I hope you and your neighbors stay safe and warm tonight.

Thanks DR Jose. We're pretty used to this stuff. I'm sure unless they HAVE to be out, everyone is home where they should be!

Listening to the latest film score by Philippe Rombi - just gorgeous. This guy puts everyone working in America to shame. And I hope he's never corrupted by US producers who will bastardize his talent with their temp track crap.

I want to see the film it's from, too - with Belmondo and a dog.

re: scrambled eggs.

I like it with milk and cheese. But if i'm watching my milk intake i've found/and read that you can substitute water. It works.

Isn't that an omelet?

I used to add a splash of milk or water to my scrambling eggs, but eventually just stuck to "plain" eggs. However, I do remember going through a "phase" of sorts where I researched whether it was better to add milk and/or water to scrambled eggs. It was amazing to come across various recipes and theories basically forbidding the addition of either liquid. Eventually, I found that if I gave the eggs a thorough beating/scrambling before I cooked them, and cooked them properly, they came out light and fluffy. No additional "thinner" needed.

*The one trick/hint I did come across was that the eggs should form a nice even "drip/stream" when you pull the fork out of the mixture. And, yes, it is possible to overbeat, over-aerate eggs for basic scrambled eggs.

I've written about six pages today - that may or may not be it, depending on how I feel when I get home from tonight's meeting. These meetings with the planning committee for the charity do tend to go on for quite a while, so I think I'll try to bail after an hour, IF they get to the entertainment portion by then.

My mom likes to beat the egg whites then fold in the yokes I can't remember it she adds water (which is what I always thought of as an omelet) or milk (which to me is scrambled eggs). She says that's a REAL omelet

I figured out a nice segue into my new scene, and also rewrote the little section I had to, which actually came out pretty well, I thought.

WOW?!?!?

I just had to switch to CNN since the NBC affiliate just switched back to "regular programming": the fourth hour of "The Today Show" with Kathie Lee and Hoda.

Well it is NBC. They don't like to cover what they don't like

I was chatting online with some friends in NYC at the time, and they said that they did not cut away at the top of the hour (in NYC). I'm guessing since the 10:00am slot here is taken by "Regis and Kelly" - thus breaking up the four hours of "The Today Show" - they had more concerns about their syndication broadcast deal. -And the news conference did end around 10:05, as it was.

I'm very happy that my cable company finally took HGTV and Food TV in HD off of the special subscription. I wasn't going to pay the extra for them and now I don't have to

Looks like Matthew Morrison's going into a tv series for Fox:

Yep, Matt's series pilot got picked up for 13 episodes. He flew right to L.A. after his final performance in South Pacific for some work, but then to Hawaii for some vacation before things kick into full swing. I wonder if he's been watching all those show choir clips on YouTube?

It was Sandra who made the scrambled eggs using canned whipped cream.

I didn't realize it was canned whipped cream?!?!?!?!??!

ROTFL!!!!

*So, did she mix it into the eggs? or just use it as a topping? -And I really do hope it was canned whipped cream, and not canned "whipped topping".

I asked DR Druxy because Bryan always wanted us to go to a theater in Portland that had comfy seats & served pizza, beer & I don't know what else. He never mentioned food was served during the movie. I'm pretty sure he would have found that annoying.

There's a mini-chain in DC of "Cinema and Drafthouses" - where they show movies - usually second-run - and serve food and beer during the movie. However, they have actual tables set up, and with the way the levels are set up, the waiters are hardly ever in your sightlines.

But what DR Druxy described... Hmm... I probably would have walked out too.

I don't know about waiters in the Portland theater/theaters, but the older movies sound right. If we hadn't had Sherlock with us we would have all gone to see CASABLANCA.

Time to leave work, go home and watch the season premiere of "Kyle XY," among other shows.

Until later!

She squirted the canned whipped cream into the Magic Bullet with the eggs.

Growing up our scrabbled eggs always had a little milk in them. They were fluffy & lightly cooked. Keith prefers his eggs well done & asked me to leave out the milk. I still cook mine light though I rarely add milk anymore. I only use a smidgen of olive oil in the pan, just enough to keep them from sticking. Since I eat a lot of eggs I use the ones from vegie-fed chickens.

Oh... As for the Topic of the Day...

There are a few I remember from my childhood and early teens - bad ones - and I've found that if I actively remember them again, I tend to re-dream them, so...

*There was one recurring dream that actually made me not want to go to sleep since I didn't want to dream it again. It made me dizzy in my dream, and dizzy when I woke up.

Otherwise, I don't think I've ever had a flying dream. I don't think I've ever dreamt that my teeth were falling out. However, I have had bunches of dreams where seemingly random people meet up and embark on some sort of adventure - either extraordinary or mundane.

Oh, and when I have "rehearsal dreams", then that's usually a sign that I should just concentrate more on the good than the bad.
