Anyway, during the rehearsal, I got a call from a friend who (had to leave a message which) said that according to the local paper (and a LOT of Facebook posts) a mutual friend of ours has been missing since Sunday night! Here's the article:

He's the resident musical director for Capital Playhouse and I've known him since we met during the very first show that I did in Olympia in 1989. I hope that he's found and and soon and well!

He has been found.

Yes, good news, but still a bit spooky.

How are you today, TCB?

John G. · « **Reply #70 on:** July 25, 2012, 09:55:03 AM »

And you, Jeanne?

Jeanne · « **Reply #71 on:** July 25, 2012, 09:59:38 AM »

In case no one's heard, we had a jolt this morning. It's been reported as a 3.7 magnitude quake. I had trouble falling asleep last night, then the quake hit about 3:20, and I was unable to go back to sleep. I kept expecting after-shocks. No damage that I'm aware of. It was centered not far off Marina del Rey (not far from me). But this kid does not function well on only 3 hours sleep!

John G, aside from feeling seriously sleep-deprived, I'm OK. Thanks.

And you?

John G. · « **Reply #73 on:** July 25, 2012, 10:01:18 AM »

Yikes. Steady vibes for Jeanne.

I know the sleep-deprived feeling very well.

Chas, when I lived in Virginia, my AC bills were usually about $200/mo.

BTW, I like your phrase "AC lockdown." That's pretty apt.

bk · « **Reply #76 on:** July 25, 2012, 10:05:33 AM »

I'm up. It took me a LONG time - didn't fall asleep till almost three and just before I did there was a minor little earthquake - nothing to speak of but still.

We had a line of intense thunderstorms pass through yesterday evening in which most of the rain and thunder and lightning missed my area, but the sky and winds were the second most beautiful example of a healing cool front I've ever experienced. I don't even have the vocabulary to describe it, that's how unique and "awesome" and welcoming it was. Within half an hour we went from a 90+ degree A/C lockdown to a windows-flung-wide-open one that is heavenly even now.

(Sorry, DR Ginny!)

Thanks, DR ChasSmith! I think we're in for a cool-down over the weekend. It will be very welcome, because my Mom's retirement community has their annual fish fry on Saturday and our local Greek church has their festival all weekend.

I thought you wrote that the weather was going to cool down this weekend because of the retirement community's fish fry and the local Greek church festival. I didn't realize they had that much power.

TCB, Follies ships tomorrow. Boys in the Band is from Sweden by way of Canarsie.

My website co-hosted a forum last night that featured 10 panelists talking about the state of food in San Antonio. It was called 5-Minute Food Revolutions and each person had five minutes to talk about what they're doing. We had a heritage pork rancher, a free-range chicken rancher, an olive oil producer, chefs and a woman who helps start community gardens. About 100 people showed up, which is better than anyone expected. Now, there's talk of a second to keep the discussion going and growing.

Fun, but exhausting. That's my lack of sleep story.

How are you today, TCB?

Pretty good, John, thank you. Of course, how I will feel after I have been pushed and shoved around by the P.T. is anyone's guess.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #81 on:** July 25, 2012, 10:11:37 AM »

DR Jeanne, I had a $0 AC bill in the few lovely years I lived in Redondo Beach. If I'm remembering correctly, my "winter" electric usage (for a couple of small electric in-wall heaters) would spike the bill to $45.

DR George, I am sorry to read about your friend! I hope he is found and safe.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Positive Vibes for DR George's friend, for vixmom's friend Stef, for cillaliz and TCB, and for one and all in this middle of the week! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks, Larry and Jose and Ginny and JRand and Jennifer and ChasSmith and Kerry and John G. and TCB and Jeanne! Yes, Troy has found! Someone on Facebook posted this from the website of the Unitarian church where Troy is music director:

Quote

I received a message about 6:30 this morning that Troy is SAFE. He had some type of medical event and ended up blacking out and sleeping in the woods for 2 days. He woke up this morning and called Denise Livingston – he is now at St Peter’s Hospital being checked out for medical causes. Please hold off trying to contact him this morning as his family will need to have some time with him. I have contacted Arthur so he has the news. Thanks to ALL of you for your faith and your prayers. I will send out an update later today once we know more. Thanks again!!

BK: Mundane question, but should I be concerned that I haven't received a copy of "There's Mel" ordered two weeks ago? Previous items have gotten here so blazingly fast, that, in light of other USPS madness, I thought it might be prudent to ask. Hate bothering you with a question like this!

Did anyone notice all the copies of "There's Mel..." on ebay?

Just joking.

Laundry is now done. On "wasted" days my fall-back is to try to do the laundry. At least something gets done, and I can do laundry while seriously muddled.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #89 on:** July 25, 2012, 10:35:05 AM »

Oh come on, let's do it.
