makes me wonder if I said anything about anyone that I wish I hadn't said.....nah, I don't think so

You have no reason to worry. I worry about the same thing and I write much worse about others than you ever could.

Yeah but you write it to our faces.

You must both be exhausted.

Yes, Richard and I are very tired and my 92-year-old mother is totally exhausted.

...But before the downpour came, I managed to make it inside Sichuan Village. I had passed this place many times, but never gave it a second thought since there are big signs in their window: BUFFET! Well... Washingtonian Magazine recently came out with their "Cheap Eats" issue, and Sichuan Village listed. It turns out they also have a truly authentic Sichuan and Chengdu menu - and five Sichuan/Szechuan-trained chefs in the kitchen. Well...

The Dan Dan Noodles, Spicy Cabbage and Cumin Lamb truly made my tastebuds happy. It almost made me feel like I was dining at one of my favorite Chinese places back in Flushing, Queens.

When I requested the "menu" side of the restaurant, I got a very quizzical look from the waitress ("Are you sure?"). But once I started to ask about some of the menu items, I could tell that the waitress was happy to learn that I was familiar with the dishes listed on their menu.

Best of all, there was enough Spicy Cabbage and Cumin Lamb left over for my lunch tomorrow.

If it is really going to get up to 90 degrees this week, I guess I need to buy a surge protector for my air conditioner.

It feels as if something is afoot, weather-wise. But storms are not on the radar. Strange.

DR TCB - There is still some buzz about some sort of transfer coming from places both legit and internet-legit ;). There were actually some tweets the other day about it posted by Howard Sherman who recently stepped down as head of The Broadway League), as well as Peter Marks from The Washington Post. -I guess if they were hearing things, well... One supposedly hopeful note is that it appears that the set will be put back in storage and not torn down after we close on October 2. Then again, maybe they just want to save the lumber for next Spring's production of The Music Man? One never knows...

I'm happy - we're all happy we've had such a long run by DC standards - 12 weeks! Work is good. Work on a good show is even better. Nothing to be sad about there.



Like LESTAT?

Um...

Well...

Hmm...

Er...

...How about them Mariners?

And here's Nathan with some bridesmaids in the church courtyard after the ceremony.  The bridesmaid on the far right is his Aunt Lauren (our niece/goddaughter):

Thanks, DR Laura!  I've "borrowed" these from Nathan's mom's Facebook.  She's our niece Rev. Amy.

Going through some old VCR tapes (remember them) I discovered copies of the two plays I wrote (directed one of them) and another play I directed and also a tv commercial  and movie (the only lead I ever did) that was scrapped.

 I've been trying to burn them to a dvd. Want to do this before the tapes dry out. I've trying to do them though two older machines, but have not been able to successfully do it. So frustrating!!

I think I will have to buy a new machine that is combines the vcr and dvd burner together.

GOOD LUCK & VIBES YOU ARE PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS!

Tomorrow I have a physical at 2:00 PM.   I guess that means I have to fast all day.  Think I'll head a good meal tonight. I'm thinking about whipping up a batch of chili.  It's cool weather, supposed to get into the 40s again tonight....chili weather.

Will the doctor be drawing blood?  I give at the hospital so I go one morning when it is convenient for me.  Last time I went prior to my doctor's appointment which I plan to do from now on.

We are not allowed to go for our blood work prior to the physical.  The insurance comapny refuses to pay unless the lab work is ordered during the physical.

Silly because then they might have to pay for the return visit to the doctor to discuss the results.

DR Ginny, I suspect I'll have lots of photos to look over on my next visit?

Tell me again: where's the honeymoon? where are they living when they return?

DR Jane, my friend's wife seems fine with the situation. She's isn't the first wife of a friend who'scome out.  DR Ginny and I know one teacher in Ohio who left his wife for another man and then dumped the man and moved back in with the wife! Just like Hollywood.
