Well, you've read the notes, the notes had joy and were written in December, and now it is time for you to post until the December cows come home.

From yesterday, thanks John G., Jane, KevinH for the opening night vibes! The show itself went quite well. The audience was nearly filled and I only made a couple of sound cue goobers...one was actually quite noticeable.

I forgot to set off a music cue for one of the songs near the end. The music is supposed to start and then the actors have some spoken lines before singing. Well, I didn't start the cue until after they started talking (which isn't horrible), but then they started singing about four measures too early...and then they stopped singing...and then started a couple of measures too soon...and then the figured it out and everything got all caught up.

AARRGGHH!! At least it was only one noticeable mistake...the couple others were more subtle.

After last night's opening performance, there was cast party at a former board member's house (and she's a friend of mine, too). It was quite fun...a lot of conversations, food and good times were had by all.

Today, we have our first matinee and after that, I'm ushering for a performance by the Masterworks Choral Ensemble, a local choral group. It'll be a busy day for me.

Good night and have a good day, all!

Morning all.

That is all.

We had a successful load in. We have lots of work to do. Again, we have over 3000 bags to fill but we will do it as we always do it.

I came home, took a shower and a nap. We had dinner and watched an old Rosemary and Thyme and then I went to bed.

I have to go to the Greenmarket this morning but Saturday will be a quiet day. I may go to the Library also to see if they have anything of interest to watch (if I don't fall asleep).

I hope all is well. I'll try to catch up.

I think I missed Robbie Rozelle birthday here, so if you're reading, happy birthday belatedly! I know Skip had wished him happy birthday directly on his birthday, though.

I put a comment on the Times comment box with regard to FREE TO BE YOU AND ME's 40th anniversary. I think it's catchy but no one's really free to be anything of the sort, are they?

This comment is from the heart, though I hope it's also funny. Too many people feel free, and think their freedom allows them to encroach on other people's lives and well-being because they feel free to say and do what they want, effect on others be damned. I'm thinking for example of the right of people who have the right to marry taking it away from people who don't, when it doesnt affect them - but I'm sure there are other applications. (Like if someone puts a work of artistic sort, they are asking for that work to be judged, but I never understood how that free speech extends to attacking someone publcly as a person.)

Good morning, all! I slpt well, but I had a most peculiar dream about Dublin, my attnding a funeral of a friend, and helping the friend of a friend and a home for wayward girls, where my friend Bronagh, who in reality works for the Stephens Green Hibernian Club, was working.

I will leave here around 8:45 for City Center to help Joshie with the proofreading at Encores! I have no idea how long I'll be there, but, if i'm home by 2pm, i may go ahead and do the laundry I did not do yesterday. So, we'll see how much I accomplish today.

Good morning, all.

Got a light semi-covering of snow out there. Hope there won't be too much more. On the radar we're in the "mix" band, and I do not approve of that. No sirree.

Have to drive into the city to attend an afternoon Christmas concert a friend sings in. It's a nice tradition. I really wanted to take the train in, but today I need to keep as tight a schedule as possible and not be too late getting back, so I'll drive, and hopefully zip in and out like in the best of times.

Off To Work to Earn Some Money

Good morning, all.

Insanely busy day today. First big rehearsal for the Christmas Lessons and Carols this morning. Then a book signing. After that I have to cover a tamale festival and a coffee festival. I may get some time off this evening. Or maybe not.

Just the movie. I haven't read the books yet. I enjoyed most of the movie, but I felt that the director needed to shape some of the fight scenes better to build a little more suspense. Loved the supporting cast a lot, because they seemed to be having fun and it showed. And I guess that was for the parents, because most younger moviegoers would have no idea who Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland and Woody Harrelson are.

DR Laura, I'm glad you enjoyed the Donny Osmond concert with Marie.

Long long day ahead. Prep for a funeral, service, lunch, and then hours of dishwashing.

One thing I've learned here is that an hour too long on Page 1 is like a weekend in ARLETA.
