DR elmore - I hope you enjoy your first trip out to Flushing on the 7 Train. I take that trip quite often. Hope you brought a book. ;)

After I got home, the most wonderful thing happened.  Edith's husband, Chris, called me and asked me if I'd like him to come over and fix the downspout.  OMG!!!  I had stopped at the farm and home store and bought everything to rig up a temporary fix, but it was very temporary and I had no long term plan.   So Chris and Edith stopped over. He took a look at it took part of it off and headed to the store.  He came back and was able to rig up a temporary fix and will come back tomorrow to fix it permanently.    I am so thankful.  It was nothing for him, but it was a huge deal to me

Then after he got done I called and discovered that the party I had planned to go to at 5:15 was still going strong.  A friend was "unveiling" one of Paul's paintings.  So, even though I was totally pooped out, I went over.  It was nice, but now I'm really tired.

My friend who is a housing inspector said I really need to pull up the carpet and let it dry out and then have it put down again.  I really don't want to mess with that.  I'll see what it's like in the morning.  If it's wet I'll do it.  I really don't want mildew

I am hoping the day was exciting enough for the cats that they sleep in past 5:45 am.  And that if they don't they let me sleep in

DR JohnG - I guess you found some guava recipes. ;)

Do you have enough to make some membrillo or goiabada?

I also like guava purée swirled into an ice cold glass of horchata.

DR FJL - Which weekend in May will you be in DC? Is Follies on your itinerary?*

*I ended up having drinks the other night with one of Derek McLane's assistants - Derek is the set designer for Follies. It's gonna be a BIG set!

DR TCB - Chris Sieber is a wonderful guy. As is his partner/husband, Kevin Burroughs. -And if you've ever seen that clip of them from Broadway Bares as Batman and Robin, well... :)

Oh...

And speaking of my old 'hood, well, my new 'hood...

I'm officially(?) staying on the Upper East Side - 87th & 3rd - until I head down to DC/VA for Oklahoma!. I'm liking this location/neighborhood more than I thought I would. I'm a block from the express train as well as the crosstown bus. And Shake Shack too. ;)

I'm back from Flushing, and, yes, I took a book. The dinner was wonderful: ravioli, sausages, salad, poached pears, and a very good red wine. It was a lovely visit and I had a wonderful time. Now I'm going to bed to watch a bit of the new UPSTAIRS DOWNSTAIRS. and crash.

BK - I am shocked to read that you ate Farfel for lunch.  That dog and his N-E-S-T-L-E-S commericial were a cherished part of my youth.


NESTLES makes the very best CHOOOOOOOOOOOC LAAAAAAAAAAAAATE




I still have my Farfel mug somewhere

Jose - Definitely seeing FOLLIES (likely twice) and A TIME TO KILL.  I'd rather not put travel dates on here, though.

This weekend is the Vixfamily annual outing to http://www.iconsf.org/

We are somewhat underwhelmed with the guest list this year - especially as this is the 30th anniversary and we were expecting 'something special"

In the past  Charles Pogues close and personal friend Harlan Ellison was a regular - but his last visit was in 2008

but we have had our tickets since Ocotber and we are transportation for several of the Vixter's friends - and it beats doing the laundry!


so I will not be around much if at all this weekend 

Isn't Thomas Jane HUNG?


I'll ask him for you if you like

As I was getting ready to leave for work this morning, at about 4:30; a whole slew of fire trucks went racing past my place and into Point Defiance.  Naturally, at that time of day, the park is normally closed.  Sadly, it turned out that the Pagoda, which was built in 1914, was burning.  The building is often used for weddings and other events.  I guess the damage was extensive.  So sad, no doubt arson.



that is sad --- although it  is very  possible with a building that old and out in a wooded area that rodents may have gotten into the wiring....  still sad  but better than willful destruction.....
