Well, you've read the notes, the notes were very heavy, and now it is time for you to post until the nine very heavy cows come home.

Well, we had rehearsal last night (I only got home about an hour and a half ago) and it went. Quite well, actually.

We started act two at about 7:00 pm and it didn't take as long as act one did last night. Then we started the show from the very beginning and got through act one in just a little over an hour...of course, we didn't have thunderous applause slowing us down.

Then, we went through act two AGAIN! And that took just about an hour, so we're getting through it. We still haven't gotten all the costumes yet (don't ask

) and my pants have been hemmed with gaffer's tape (for now...an Avenue Q reference!), but we should have everything we need by Friday.

Tonight will be a costume parade and full dress, then tomorrow we'll have our final dress with invited guests, then open on Friday!

The really good news is that when I got home, my DVR had recorded "Glee" (unlike last week)!!

Good morning, all! Today is a McGlinnventory day, followed by some time at the Packard Humanities Institute office. My colleague Curtis is back from several jaunts, one of them a long trip to Kansas City to work on a show, and together we located a lot of the scores I was missing and couldn't find in the past couple of weeks.

After that, I will come back here to work on OZ edits until my friend Richard shows up to pick up some CDs I burned for him. After that, back to Season Four of BONES.

The callithumps are in bloom again. Such a strange flower, suitable to any occasion. I carried them on my wedding day and now I place them here in memory of something that has died...

Wednesday - and tonight is the full moon, DR JOSE - not last night.

Watch out for werewolves.

Very excited that MR BK has nine heavy boxes of books. And I am most intrigued by the tidbits about the NEXT Kritzerland release - if DR MBARNUM would like it, I am pretty sure I will be a fan as well.

BK I saw and posted about THE BLIND SIDE last week. I thought i would like it. But i also ended up loving it. It was much better than i expected too.

Wednesday morning greetings! It is sunny, but COLD here in SW Ohio today.

48 years ago today I wore nylon stockings for the first time - oh, my sister and her husband got married, too!

My 50th birthday plans for Sunday have been changing.

Back in December, we'd actually planned a day trip to Orlando - even had reservations at California Grill, which I recently cancelled, so I noticed that had been made last December. Then it hit aftre all the planning of the day - the reality of flying for 3-plus hours each way, possible delays, only 5 hours actually on theme park premises.

Changed plans to Atlantic City, because I'd heard the ACES Atlantic City train service was so pleasant and fun, especially if we did a birthday splurge for the better class of train service. So that was a go. Thing is, we'd just naturally assumed there would be service on that ACES line on Sunday night (figuring lots of people would be coming back on Sunday nights, right?) turns out we can easily get the great service going there Sunday morning getting there, but Sunday night, we'd have to take regular old Amtrak and the trip involved changes and was an hour longer. And just a day or two ago, the physical reality of that either 4-hour train trip back to NYC, or alternatively a packed-bus trip on my actual 50th birthday date, set in - so as of now, we probably won't do that.

The truth is, I'd had so much fun first planning out first the Orlando trip, and then the Atlantic City trip, that I feel like the anticipation towards the 50th birthday Sunday has given me real joy for several months now - and the really strange thing is: it's almost like I don't need the reality of the traveling day; only as it drew near did the actual travel time start to feel "real" instead of "an adventure."

The good feeling of all the planning remains a nice memory, though. As of now, we'll probably just end up spending the day at my brother's in New Jersey (which we never get to do together because of the boys), since we'd already made arrangements for friends to watch Toby and Dylan for the day. And it feels like a pleasant way to spend the day itself - i feel like I've been sort-of-celebrating my 50th birthday through my research online for months now.

Good morning!

Much colder here this morning (38), and I had to don both sweatpants and a light jacket for my walk. But otherwise, it was a beautiful morning, and I really enjoyed the walk so much. But it's not getting out of the 60s today, so it's going to be quite chilly. Warmer temps begin tomorrow.

Today I will begin work on OSHIMA'S OUTLAW SIXTIES box set. The first film, and I've seen none of these in this set, is PLEASURES OF THE FLESH. Since he would go on to direct IN THE REALM OF THE SENSES, I kind of don't know what to expect with this.

Wednesday night continues to be an off night for primetime TV for me. I only have a new MODERN FAMILY to watch. Nothing else on tonight holds any interest for me. Once the summer shows begin, I suspect there will be something on Wednesday night to delight me, but right now, MODERN FAMILY is it.

Matt H. · « **Reply #26 on:** April 28, 2010, 07:00:54 AM »

I have last night's IDOL episode on the DVR, and I recorded the LOST rerun which I'll likely start watching while I eat lunch. If there are no squeegees with it, I'll delete it and watch BONES on Blu-ray. The foaming bone episode is the next one on the disc.

Matt H. · « **Reply #27 on:** April 28, 2010, 07:01:37 AM »

I also saved the GLEE episode from last night, but I probably won't rewatch it until tonight while I wait for MODERN FAMILY to come on.

My first question for ASK BK day - did you prefer the automatic changing phonographs or the phonographs that played records one at a time?
