I love the Winter Olympics.  I'm looking forward to watching them and pray that there is no terrorism

Ditto on the no terrorism! 

My favorite event is the ice dancing.  Ever since Torvill and Dean, I found that the grace and style appeal to me more than the big jumps of the pairs skating.  I remember a couple of Olympics ago that one US (I think) pairs skating team were good and got great compliments on their footwork.  They had a shot at medaling, but they tended to have problems on their jumps...actually, the landings of the jumps.  I always wondered if they always had problems with the jumps and landings, why don't (or couldn't) they switch to ice dancing.  No jumps...problem solved.

Back from a really good band rehearsal.  The charts sounded great, the band is stellar, and I brought in my sound guy from The Federal, who is doing an amazing job.  If we can keep the mechanics of the show running smoothly, we should be fine.  I did get irritated as soon as I got there - for three months I've been saying I wanted the band on two sides of a center aisle, so I could break up the side entrances with that.  I had diagramed all those entrances and exits, but when I showed up, while the band is indeed in the two halves there's no center aisle or way for them to enter from the back, so I now have to redo every single diagram and all entrances are from the sides and that's just a bore, but nothing to be done about it.

One of the reasons I guess I'm adept at jumping from project to project is because I thrive on living in each of those worlds, I just love doing that.

I'm still pretty queasy, but I had no problems at rehearsal, didn't even have to go to the bathroom once - that's probably because I had no liquid left in me, but I just drank my 7-Up which was perfect and while I wasn't really up to snuff I thankfully was okay in terms of having problems.  Now if we can just keep it that way tomorrow I'll get through this.  I'm not eating anything today, and probably won't tomorrow.

BK, you are very wise to sip 7-up and other clear liquids.  Dairy products are the absolute last things you should add back into your diet.  Hope your recovery continues!

And if you like ginger ale, that's the best thing ever for a stomach that's come home from the war.

This year the US has great ice dancing teams.  Did you happen to see them at Nationals

I met one of my California friends and her relatives for dinner in Old Town Alexandria last night.  We always go to "The Wharf," which serves "she-crab soup," which is her favorite.   They always make a nice pasta and veggie dish for me since I don't eat meat or fish.

I remember The Wharf. It's on King St about two blocks from the river. Or, at least it used to be.




That's it, DR Jeanne!

I'm back from Gypsy at the Signature Theatre.  It was really great--Mama Rose was played by Sherri L. Edelen and she was fantastic!  It was directed by Joe Calarco, not by the resident director.

Sandy Bainum was very funny as Tessie and I think got the most laughs of any character.  My friend and I saw her in the lobby after the show and she was her usual vivacious and friendly self!

Did you see Julia Robert's dress?  From what I saw it looked like she had on a white button down shirt and forgot to take it off when she tried on her dress.  I didn't see the whole dress, so I'm hoping I'm wrong about it...I'll be interested to see her

I thought Tina and Amy's opening was funny.  I think the funniest part was Julia Louis Dreyfuss's bit.

I'm assuming we can name the winners since the show is live on the West Coast?
