This morning, on Facebook, Ben changed his avatar to his dad's photo.  He posted this
My dad had the bluest eyes I ever saw and thru those eyes he saw the world in all its magnificence. Today we donated his corneas with the hope somebody else will be able to see the world thru his beautiful eyes. What a cool and comforting thought.


He's such a good guy, and a really excellent baritone. When  the Branagh filmn of THE MNAGIC FLUTE is available on DVD next month, you can hear what a good singer and comic he is as Papageno the Bird Catcher.

i haven't commented in the past much about the film, which never got a US distributor - WTF? it should have! - but it's Mozart's allegorical fairy tale, English version by Stephen Fry,  set in the World War 1 trenches; it's funny but also very spooky, with the dragon chasing the prince at the beginning of the piece changed to a trail of poisonous gas. Papageno becomes the soldier who is checking trenches for poisonous gas pockets by sending birds into the space, and if they die . . .

The three ladies who attend the Queen of the Night are French nurses. It's all very wonderful with great costume and scene designs.

Sounds wonderful. I have the Bergman version, but who could have enough Magic in their lives?

Questions for anyone out there with an iPhone 5. How often do you have to recharge yours? I have had mine for only two days now, but the battery has been
low both mornings. Do I really need to recharge it daily?

I have a 4 and I always charge it overnight.

The elective I started is something we are calling "Glee".  Basically, it will be a show choir type thing.  The kids are excited, but they know it will be hard work.

That sounds great!

I've emailed my copyists, answered a few questions, proofed a couple of short scores, and it's time to head uptown to finish my taxes for tomorrow.

Greetings from Kenwood Towne Center!  To my great relief, my iPad Mini was covered for accidents, so I only had to pay a $50 deductible for a replacement.  Richard is talking now to the geniuses about our AirPort and I'm bonding with my unblemished iPad.

Yesterday I had chocolate covered bacon and chocolate covered potato chips....they were both very good
I've had the bacon, but the chocolate-covered potato chips sound really good. Like chocolate covered pretzels, which I love.
They are wonderful, you get the crunchy and salty with the sweet.

Had a very emotional plea hearing this morning.  My client cried, his mom and dad cried his uncle cried....it doesn't make me cry, but being in the middle of all the emotion  does take a little out of me. So, I came home for  lunch, will shake if off and head back to work refreshed

I told Edith I was thinking about cancelling my trip and taking the days off to clean house.  She said she never wants to go anywhere and loves to clean house on her days off.

Shaking it off vibes for DR CILLA LIZ.

I feel the same way about trips and going.....but I will only say this will probably be your only chance to see EDWIN DROOD on Broadway.....

JRand, I know that.  I'm just not sure that seeing it on Broadway outweighs all the preparations to go, the cost of everything I have to do to go and the fact I don't want to leave home.  If I knew I could see Mr. H, I may still go, but it's looking like he'll be too busy, so that makes it a whole lot easier to just stay home.

Good point.  I know the pet sitter situation can't be helping.

Cilla, I get it.  I still love to travel but then I have Keith to deal with my luggage. ;)  There are other things I don't do anymore.

First of all, let me say "Thank You" to everyone who offered vibes and good wishes.

Let me say, that the field of medicine has progressed a great deal in the last thirty years.  The myelogram was uncomfortable at times, but it wasn't the agonizing experience that I had before.  And the fact that the doctor was a cutie didn't hurt.  I have to spend most of the next 24 hours on my back, with only a few minutes  sitting or standing.  I won't know anything about the results of the test for, at least, a couple of weeks.

I hope they told you about the following 24 hours prior to the test.   Good news it wasn't an agonizing experience.  No wonder you didn't want to go.

MEGA GOOD TEST RESULT VIBES!!!

I'm up, which I guess is what happens when you go to sleep at nine.  Feeling disgusting right now - stuffed up, coughing horribly (which HURTS) and it's like there's a fist in my chest.  I still hope this goes away sooner than later so keep sending those excellent vibes and xylophones.

Wow you slept a long time!!!!

Samantha's would be father in law (would be if they got married) passed away on Tuesday.  He was a really nice guy and Samantha and Don were very close to him.   I'm going to be going to the funeral on Saturday and will spend some time with mom and dad. 

My condolences to Don and all of your family.

I am looking forward to seeing little Dash.  I haven't seen him since he was a month old.  He's almost 8 months old now!

And I have arrived home. It was a very pleasant bus ride. I just finished the chapter about Levin's visit to his consumptive brother Nikolai and trip home.  Anna's dancing with Vronsky at the ball has upset Kitty, who's upset that, because of her her crush on Vronsky, she turned down Levin's proposal. What a great novel.

As expected, our parishioner Olga died at 10:30 last night.  She was well into her 90s and was a delightful woman.  Fr. Richard is on the phone now with her daughter and the funeral director.

It was good then you could stop by yesterday.  Will Richard have to return to Lima before Sunday?
