Has anybody heard of a book due out mid-may called Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein?

It's supposed to be sort of a YA/historical book (do those two mix?). I wasn't sure if it sounded like something I'd like. But it's been getting a lot of praise. Today netgalley sent an autoapprove for the ebook. I was still unsure. But then I checked my friends list on goodsread and one of my favorite YA authors absolutely loved it.  And since I think she is amazing I asked for it on netgalley (should be on my kindle now).

Dinner of sauteed cod, zucchini with green garlic, mushrooms with olive salad and cole slaw quite nice. I think I need another nap.

It looks good.  I don't see an eBook.  I'll watch for your report on it.

I just watched last night's episode of GRIMM, which was based on the three billy goats gruff and the troll at the bridge. I think I'll get ready for bed.

My niece is picking us up for church at 8:45 in the morning.  Mom has already crashed for the night and I'm not far behind.

'night!

I got a few pages written tonight, but I'm unfocused and fading. Hopefully tomorrow.

Tonight, I worked concessions for a performance of the Olympia Chamber Orchestra, which featured Opera Pacifica (a local opera company) and selections from "La Traviata" in concert.

We didn't get much business...we were told that there were only about 40 tickets pre-sold. :-\

I think that about 100 showed up...a lot of the tickets were comps for family members.

Given all the theater activity tonight, I might as well report that I played pit piano in a "Bye Bye Birdie".  It's an amateur production, so I am suitably embarrassed.  I did it for the MOOney.

Well, well, well - I'm home very late after a very long STAGE benefit and what do I find?  Our lowest posting day EVER for this board and so I'm going to just say this:

EDIT: I just deleted I wrote, but I think you can probably figure out what it was.  Want this board to continue?  That's the basic and simple question - or everyone can just play on Facebook, which is NOTHING like this board, but if that's what everyone wants, you are all welcome to it.  Four pages and not even four complete pages does not cut the mustard or the mayo or the ketchup and I will not allow this board to trickle down into nothingness.  Truly.
