Well, you've read the notes, the notes were calm and crazy, and now it is time for you to post until the calm and crazy cows come home.

I did something crazy this morning. Since I couldn't sleep, I actually got to work early so I could work out. I prefer sleep.

TOD:

BK, have you announced a title for the book? Or is this not yet the time?

Boy, that was a long one.  From where I sit, anyway.  At least two and half hours.

A belated good morning, all!    :)

Good morning, all! I've been unable to log on since about 7:30 this morning. I guess the board's been back up for around 15 minutes? I was having a hellish problem with a Staples order this morning because I had mistakenly ordered the wrong pens, and a lovely lady in Customer Service helped me repair everything.

So, I slept very well last night, and I'm guessing that I will not be going to Encores! today, unless i suddenly hear from Joshie, s I'll wrk on my taxes.

I have no more news.

Fourteen degrees out there now, but it's supposed to get up to 40 again, both days this weekend.

It seems I always have a question for BK but it's never on Wednesday. By the time Wednesday rolls around I forgot what?

We just received a flyer from the hotel manager about today's lunch and dinner buffets and telling us that housekeeping services are limited.  I just made our bed and emptied the trash.  We only need a few towels and some K-cups.

Just a nod to DR Pogue's reply to TOD yesterday about "Hullabaloo" and his watching that, instead of "Shindig", because it featured Lada Edmund Jr.  I was a fan, too, but I also recall another dancer on that show.  Some of you may have heard of her:   Donna McKechnie.

Very cute.  Trouble is, most cats cannot digest milk properly.  The end result is usually diarrhea.

Still waiting to hear from The Bass we saw last night; the other nine actors have confirmed. and in 18 days we have our first rehearsal.

I am suddenly very sleepy.

Ah thanks for the correction DR JANE.....interesting.....  There are a lot of girls in the Shindig audience that look like you!

I liked Hullabaloo - BUT most of the acts on SHINDIG sang live!  The dancers on Hullabaloo were better...including MR BK's own instructor Mr David Winters....and Donna and Michael and Lada, of course....and it was in COLOR!

And thanks to everyone....I think last night's show was MY best....and we have ONE MORE TO GO....tonight is closing night 16 days after we had our first blocking rehearsal!

A lot of students are required to attend for one class or another that they are in.....about half of them left at intermission last night...so I played to a much smaller audience in Act Two.

AND OF COURSE my "check engine" light came on this morning....so i will probably borrow a car to drive down tonight and then have it looked at tomorrow or Friday.
