Good morning, all! I slept really late and I am pondering the events of the day. At noon, I must be at Staples as as soon as they open to pick up storage boxes iy's impossible to move around this apartment without stumbling over piles of libretti and full scores for THE RED MILL, ROBERTA, and DEAREST ENEMY. I may need to purchase shipping envelopes as well, so my next project this morning is to group tgether everything I will be shipping on Tuesday morning and see what I will need to buy.

At 12:30 I'm taping the Lincoln Center broadcast of NUTCRACKER, and the rest of my day will be spent on building an orchestra score from scratch for the ROBERTA Act One Fashion Show.

I enjoyed the new OTB, but I kept thinking of Alet as Yoni and her big hair in THE BRAIN FROM PLANET X. I'm seeing Andy in ONCE on Wednesday, and I really look forward to it. He does look a bit like Michael Douglas!

Well, I should head for church, I guess. Today is the children's nativity, since they think no one will come next week. Sigh. At least we found the costumes; last year we didn't have any.

I watched the Jerry Lewis documentary on ENCORE last night.....it's probably On Demand.  It was okay....and mentioned a Broadway Bound THE NUTTY PROFESSOR that Lewis will direct......

Still catching up on old Varietys, and someone may have posted this when it happened, but Lee Pockriss died in November.

After this morning I am more or less off for the next two weeks.  I will still have Choir rehearsal on Wednesday night, two Christmas Eve services and Christmas morning, but that's pretty much it, aside of course from churning out at least one review per day.  So, in other words, I have no time off.  ;)

Joanie said it was from her time as Script Supervisor on My Two Dads (remember that show?), where the running joke was Attack of the 50 Foot Script Supervisor.

My TV woke me up again last night when it switched itself on again. It seems to happen every Saturday night at midnight. Turning off the auto software update didn't make any difference. LG have now suggested checking that all timers are off and then do a factory reset.

Thanks to one and all and all and one for the birthday happys!  I've too much planned for today--there's still some chores that need doing about the household (Including one of my least favorite, cleaning the dining room chandelier) plus a lot of shopping to do yet.  I really miss not having all my vacation time in December this year but at least I have the upcoming week.

Has anyone ever noticed that the Tiny Tim in the SCROOGE musical looks a lot like a young Jodie Foster?

Just sold TWO more stories to Chicken Soup for the Soul - that'll be for "Messages from Heaven" which comes out late Feb, and "I Can't Believe My Dog Did That!" later this year.

If you're in LA, don't miss LA Ballet's "Nutcracker" - they are a class act all the way ... and I've seen a LOT of ballet in 63 - dount 'em - 63 years!!!

ummm... that'd be "count 'em" NOT "dount 'em" - maybe I didn't take enough drugs back in the 60's...
