That would be a bit of a scare, DR Cillaliz! Glad that Callie is better now.

I have watched a LOT of Bollywood movies over the last 3 days. It has been fun.

Good Evening!

Two good shows today.

And I realized that not only was this first time in a long time that my brother, Don, actually drove into DC, I think it's the first time in years(!!!!!) that's he actually seen a show that I was playing. I was actually kind of surprised when he said that he would be joining my niece, her "bestie" and her mother.

One of the films I watched starred an actor that some HHWers might actually know, as he recently starred on the US tv series HEROES and was also on the tv series COVERT AFFAIRS.

Sendhil Ramamurthy

The film he I saw him in was SHOR IN THE CITY (2011). Interesting and unusual film. No song and dance, though.

As for the aforementioned Sea Salt Gelato...

On Saturdays, it's a tradition for the band to head out to dinner between shows, and today we picked GRAFFIATO. It was opened by "Top Chef" finalist, Mike Isabella. It was a great meal. Wonderful food all around.

*And, yes, I ordered the Chicken Thighs with Pepperoni Sauce.

Ah, well, DR MBarnum. Guess that means you'll just have to head to DC.

And since tomorrow will be another long(!) day for me...

Goodnight.

A Very Happy Birthday to the Errant and Truant DR TD!!

And a Happy Actual Birthday to JMK's DW Betsy!!

Betsy (and I) thank(s) you for all the birthday wishes. She has been inundated with FB posts and calls from near and far.

I am quite proud of DS Gabe. He has assembled a computer from scratch and it actually seems to be working, though we need to get a new keyboard before he can press "enter" and load the system disc.

Today is a work day.

AND my sister and her husband from the Seattle area have found a house and hopefully will be moving HOME in September.

Very good news, Jack!

Do you think that you might visit the area?

Back from the play and a little piece of custard pie. Of all pies, custard and pumpkin seem to be the most calorie-friendly at about 250 a slice.

Trying to decide whether to see PORGY AND BESS in Massachusetts. It's a good excuse to go back to Boston for a couple of days.

This production doesn't have anything to do with the upcoming Broadway production, does it?

And coincidentally, Seattle Opera is also presenting it this month, also.

I am a puddle of tears right now. We've been working on one of my holy grail soundtracks for three months. We had an import CD release, awash in reverb and a generation from the original album master, and the 35mm stereo tracks, which were rife with wow and flutter on many tracks. I did not know quite how we were going to make it work, but we had everything in the film except two short cues and I think we were missing a couple of source music cues. Since this is one of my ten favorite scores ever written, well, I just wanted it to be perfect, but knew we were going to have to make do. Then the process began of trying to at least get the original album master back. That went back and forth for about three months, but finally we knew they'd come - but more importantly, in their inventory they had a set of three-track tapes from which the original LP had been assembled. The minute I heard how many tracks were on these two three-track tapes I knew we'd struck gold and had the entire score in what would probably be pristine sound. The minute I put it on and heard the prologue I knew I was right - and I am more than a happy camper.

Great news, BK!

When you started out with "I am a puddle of tears right now," I was thinking that something horrible happened.
