Wednesday morning greetings!  I slept quite well, but woke up at 6am with many things on my mind.

I enjoyed watching the Dog Show last night - such beautiful dogs.  And the commentary wasn't too bad either.

When I went to Blockbuster yesterday I bought THE SOCIAL NETWORK, THE KIDS ARE ALL RIGHT, DORIAN GRAY (with Colin Firth as Henry Wooten), and MY NAME IS KHAN, a nice Bollywood movie.

I watched DORIAN GRAY first - looked very nice and Ben Barnes was okay as Dorian, but they certainly changed the story a bit, and I never heard Dorian say what makes the deal that makes the picture change.

Then I watched THE SOCIAL NETWORK, which I enjoyed. Interesting. But also pointed out to me what a BIG disconnect there is between me and what is going on with YOUNG people in the world.

I may watch THE KIDS ARE ALL RIGHT tonight.

I had my appendix removed in an emergency operation when I was eight years old.  I had had stomach cramps for days and on Thursday evening, I began vomiting in all kinds of different colors.  Because my regular doctor didn't have evening hours, my parents took me to another doctor my aunt recommended.  Not only did his poking at my lower abdomen cause me to jump to the ceiling, but he went on to freak me out when he shouted, "He's got to be operated on NOW!!!"  Fortunately, the hospital was right across the street from his office.  My mom and dad never left my side as I was checked in and prepped and wheeled into the operating room.  The next thing I can recall was looking out of my recovery room window and thinking I was seeing little Chinese children in coolie hats jumping on and off a Ferris wheel.

Good morning, all! I went back to bed around 3:30 and slept fitfully the remainder of the night. The alarm went off at 7 and I slept in. I'm quite tired, and I'd like to spend the rest of the morning in bed but I may be going into City Center, once I hear from Joshie. If I don't, I've got other work at the NYPL.

Tonight, I'm meeting Peter Clem, an old friend from summer theatre, 1970, the friend with whom I stayed most of the first six months of my life in New York in 1979, and the friend who got me into 1980 NYC cabaret life - and work for the Men's Chorus - as a vocal arranger. I haven't seen him in about ten years since he and his partner moved out of the neighborhood, and last week he called me out of the blue. We're going to the Triad tonight to see this Jacques Brel show. I think it's an offshoot of the last Brel revival a couple of years ago, and I think we'll have a good time.

I'll also be waiting word on Ben's surgery, and post once I hear from Anthony.

No Encores! today, but I just worked on my calendar for the upcoming week to help Joshie out before the orchestra reading on the 24th. So, I'll go to the NYPL this afternoon. I expect to hear from Anthony once DR Ben is in recovery.

So, until then I will have a quiet morning and try to wake up.

BK, re: your ears when flying.  Julieanne, who has all kinds of sinus problems, has special ear-pplugs she bought that she wears when the plane takes off and lands and I guess equalize the pressure changes of ascent and descent.  Call her and she can tell you specifically what they are.  I think she bought hers at the airport.

Went downstairs to visit the business center to print out boarding passes for tomorrow.  The business center consists of one computer and one printer.  There was an elderly person using it, apparently for the last hour.  So I asked the front desk to do it - they logged onto the Continental site, I gave them the confirmation number and they printed.

I've shaved and will now shower.  I'm being picked up at twelve-thirty.  Have no idea how long rehearsal is (long enough for a run-through is all I know) and then I have no idea how long it is between that and the first show, so I don't know whether to dress up now or later.

Am slowly surfacing today. Had weird dreams in which I felt obliged to become a partner in a business with Philip Seymour Hoffman and two other people even though I knew the business was going to fail.

But one highlight of the morning is the new clip posted on www.BlueGobo.com of Teresa Stratas singing Kurt Weill. Always a pleasure.

Never trust Philip Seymour Hoffman! :D

I've called the cell and home pgones of DR Ben and left messages. I thought he would be in recovery by now. I will head off to the NYPL and wait to hear from Anthony. I don't have a cell phone number for him, so I can't reach him. I was hoping that he would have possession of DR Ben's cell.

Jeremy, whose site that is, is a really great guy! I believe was forced to remove some of his best videos because the Ed Sullivan Show copyright holders claimed he had no right to them.  The sad thing is, they may do nothing with them so it's all back into limbo.

Jane, they prescribed a special mattress but not sure what the next step is. My step-sister talked to the dr about it; sounded like it might help!

Good!  If he has to go into the hospital for anything request one immediately.
