THE FINAL MAY DAY
« on: May 31, 2012, 12:31:51 AM »

Well, you've read the notes, the notes had a final day of May vibe, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - obviously that's not going to be in May.

I'm up and about and the car will be here at 6:15am.

Then it's off to MN. I won't have much access to a computer (we're not taking the laptop) so I'll pop in when I can.

Bye for now.

RE: LEAP of FAITH having to pay $200K to be on the Tonys. i've always found it ridiculous that musicals have to pay to be on the Tonys or other talk shows. I was stunned when i first found out.

I think they have to pay the cast and the musicians and then pay for the scenery to be moved.

Morning all!

More mega vibes for Zach!!!!

Always glad to see VixMom posting!

To answer your question, the pillow I bought was a Suprima made by Tempra Pedic.  I got it at Bed, Bath and Beyond.  I think the curve in it makes a big difference because it cradles my neck.

Hope that link works. I swear it's almost scary as to how good I feel.  To wake up and feel so rested--that has been unknown to me for the longest time.

J.B. was certainly not happy this morning because he had to go to the Tweet Suite while his daddy goes off to Italy.

I also have something else to share.  I don't know how you feel about Hypnotherapy but I found a wonderful app for both the iPhone and the Android phone.  It's by Joseph Clough.  I won't go into a lot of details but I went to see a counselor and she felt I am very stressed out.  Of course the first recommondation was to put me on some kind pill.  If you know me, you know that I don't like taking any kind of drug and asked her for a more natural alternative to help relieve it.  We discussed a few treatments and Hypnotherapy came up. 

I felt more open to trying that then the "take a pill" method.   I did some web research and stumbled on Joseph's website.  Since he gives most of his sessions away for free I decided to download his free app and to make a long story short, I honestly believe he is helping me.  He is on Facebook as well and is very accessible.  He seems to be a very nice young man.

Just thought I would throw this out there in case anyone who is stress out can give it a try.

Good morning, all! I have been up since 7:15, but I have been dealing with emails to Dublin, pdffiles, and a long email to a friend I've recently reconnected with on Facebook. I will shortly head out of here to see Joshie at City Center and to deliver a disk of the remaining orchestra parts to be printed.

I finished reading the dramatization of Rory O'More last night, and today I have to reread the EILEEN libretto. We've got abad leak in my apartment building at the moment, and I fear the broken pipe is under my bathtub, meaning a lot of excavation and other possibilities to disrupt my routine. I am not happy, but I also admit that I think my tub is the culprit.

I've got to get out and about. Thank you, all, for the vibes for Zach!

I'll check in from Toyland.

TOD:  We had a parakeet for several years when I was in junior high and high school.

A little before that, something had got me going on mice -- I'm thinking it might have been someone's school science project (was it one of my own?) -- and I went out one day and bought a lovely little white female mouse who lived in a little cage in my room.  Later, a male was acquired, and history was made -- history to the tune of a few very large cages and a few hundred mice overall.  That lasted for a couple of years, till either I lost interest or my parents called the party off.

Years later I babysat a friend's Yellow Nape Amazons a few times.  Okay, that doesn't count.  I think that's it.  The family was always dogs, and I have been always cats since.

I had a goat once.  Wonderful pet.

Also, hamsters and rats.  [Rats, actually, make great pets.]

I also had a parrot, but I discovered that I am not a bird person.

JohnG, I haven't ever seen it and so am not sure how exactly it plays into his writing, but according to some private letters I have, Odets' affair with Frances Farmer and her subsequent breakdown was much on his mind when he wrote THE BIG KNIFE.

I was just linking this excerpt on rats on All That Chat, that WILLARD THE MUSICAL spoof with music by Skip   

(lyric by Ellen Schwartz) I may have linked this  here before, but seems on-topic today: (it's about a minute-long, trailer-length :) )

He's Willard the rat boy
To us he's more than that, boy
He's Willard, the star of our show

Fascinating, JMK. I love the play. I once saw a great production of it in Albany's Capital Rep. But the movie is uneven, more about too many guest stars than anything. i wonder if Frances is informing the wife (Ida Lupino is not my idea of Frances Farmer) or one of the other characters.

One last word on "The Big Knife": I really enjoyed the Frank DeVol score. Very jazzy, snazzy.

Okay, I really have to get that.

I was just watching PILLOW TALK last night -- actually, listening to the commentary in which they go on quite a bit about Frank De Vol.

TOD:  Had dogs and cats.  Once had a chameleon and a baby (Easter) chick.  Untimely deaths for both the latter.

I once found an interesting rock and kept it on my desk throughout my Navy career...and I called it my "pet rock".  It never complained, never cried or sought attention, it never Number Oned or Twoed, it never spit up, it never ate or drank.  It was the "ideal" pet, actually.

It was my favorite non-cat non-dog pet.

On Saturday, Tacoma officially opens its latest bid at immortality, the LeMay All-American Automobile Museum.  It is located next to the Tacoma Dome; and, in fact, it took away about one half of the parking lot for the Tacoma Dome.  It will be the largest auto  museum in America (so they say)

It already has my vote for Ugliest Building in America.
