Well, you've read the notes, the notes spoke of mothers, and now it is time for you to post until the mother cows come home.

Happy Mother's Day to All Mothers (and Mother-Equivalent Parental Units)!!

Last night's show of The Brain From Planet X was Family Night. My parents came to the show and at least four other actors had parents in the audience! And Josh (our director/music director) had eight, count 'em EIGHT family members! AND we had a great audience! We had about 2/3rds filled, but they were great!

Today, we have a matinee, the we're off until Wednesday's Pay-What-You-Can performance. That should bring in a LOT of people.

After today's matinee, I'm going to my parents' house for Mother's Day. The whole family will be gathering. I didn't know what to get my mom and I really didn't have much time to even look for anything, so when my dad called to say that they were coming to last night's show, I said that I'd buy them the tickets for Mother's Day! My mom liked the idea, so I did.

I watched a bit of Betty White's SNL and was completely enjoying it! I did turn off the TV (but not my DVR, which WAS recording it!), and will now go to sleep. I'll watch the whole thing later. I may even burn a DVD of it...we'll see if I like it that much.

Good night.

Good morning, all! I have a long day of OZ to finish so I can get it into the post tomorrow. My last song is "Must You?" for the Tin Woodman. Yesterday, I finished the dance for "Football" for the Tin Woodman and the Sacarecrow, around six, did some sketching on the printed music for "Must You?" and spent the evening watching tv. A member of the cast recording list sent around a link to a download of the BBC Radio's Frank Loesser evening conducted by Larry Blank, so I listened to a bit of that before I turned on the tv.

I also packed up the three Netflix discs that have been sitting here for over a month and I will return them tomorrow morning. I had remembered setting them aside from a pile of clutter, but then I forgot where I put them. I lost an hour yesterday afternoon looking for the damned things.

I've been reading Tab Hunter's biography, and I have a couple of chapters to go. Then I will begin Mr Kimmel's tome., which I am very much looking forward to.

Good moming all! Thank you for the mother's day wishes - and Happy Mothers' Day to all you other Moms out there!

Yesterday teh forecast was for thunderstorms but instead we got a beautifully sunny - if extremely windy- day - so I spent the day gardening -

I forgot to watch SNL last night! Darn. Oh well....it will probably be rerun next month, or turned into a prime time special later this week.

DR JMK - if you're not going to accept the lease - dig up St Joseph and plant him closer to the house near a tree or bush.....on the night of the new moon.....Thursday.

Happy Mother's Day to everybody who might fit into that category...and to the mothers of you who don't.

The Vixter mowed the lawn. She saw a movement in the grass and stopped the mower in time to avoid hitting this little guy

I was so tired last night i did not make it up for any of Betty White. But i did record it and started watching it this morning.

Yesterday was busy. My niece and i baked banana breads for our respective mothers. Then she and I decided to make ourselves mini strawberry banana loaves (that is what we like). And we said, "happy mother's day to us". And then both started cracking up.

This kid is so bright for her age.

Yesterday afternoon was the season finale (here) of PROJECT RUNWAY. This is the only mainstream tv show that she is allowed to watch. She made posters for all of the contestants. And we watched together cheering and screaming at the end.

Today we are supposed to be having waffles. The weather is awful. It is really cold (i think a high of like 6C, which is like 40F). And it is going to be rainy and gross.

And now off to work

Jennifer · « **Reply #22 on:** May 09, 2010, 05:41:34 AM »

And tonight is the finale of THE AMAZING RACE! It should be interesting. I hope it is a close one. I know the team i've grown fond of is a big nonfavorite amongst most people. Obviously anybody can win in a race like this. Although i sort of hope that one team does not win (since i don't find them physically or mentally very strong).

vixmom and vixter - Thanks for the lovely "50th birthday year" thoughts!

Ditto from me!
I've scored 4 bars of the refrain this morning, but it's a chore; the tune isn't very good and the lyrics, even by the standards of 1902, are poor. I believe the other two songs - especially "Football," which is quite funny - are much better. The hardest part on a song like this is trying to keep it sounding like the orchestration was written in 1902 and fighting the urge to let the scoring get busy because you're trying to make it sound more interesting than it.

Good morning and Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers. And to all the aunts who act as mothers. And to any dads who are raising children without a mother.

FJL, shorthand would be helpful for you until your wrist heals. Assuming we could all read it.

Good morning!

It got really cool during the night, and I REALLY enjoyed my walk this morning. Very cool, but temps start warming up tomorrow morning.
