Did you all hear that loud twang?

It was the sound of the final straw from the Man from Philadelphia breaking this camel's proverbial back. The bridge has been burned, the Rubicon crossed. There is no return.

Sigh and hugs!

DR George an hour earlier is going to be extra difficult in the winter months.

Well, when I got up this morning, I TOTALLY forgot about needing to get to work earlier and I got to work at what used to be my regular time. SPOO!! Fortunately, my supervisor is in Italy on a cruise, so no one really wondered where I was.

TOMORROW, I will get to work "on time."

LOL Have you changed your alarm clock?

Waking up isn't the problem...it's making myself go to bed. THAT's the real problem.

I guess you need a bedtime alarm

Something like that. That's really a life-style change.

Back from a chili, cheese and onion grilled hot dog and some fries - my treat to myself today. Then I picked up a couple of packages and now I'll relax a bit and then finesse the liner notes I wrote at four in the morning.

Grilled hot dog sounds mighty good.

Listening to Carl Orff's Carmina Burana courtesy of Mr. Ormandy in 1960 - with Harve Presnell as soloist. I must admit other than the piece that was used in movie trailers for every film for over a decade, I was very unfamiliar with most of this, and it's quite wonderful.

First review for last night's show - not really a review at all, of course - what I call a list review.

When I was going to Western Washington University, we performed "Carmina Burana" as an all-Whatcom County performance. All the choirs and orchestras at Western were combined with the Whatcom County Orchestra and the Whatcom Chorale. It was an incredible experience.

I have always said that the best part of singing in the chorus for Prokofiev's "Alexander Nevsky" was having a front-row seat, in the midst of the orchestra, for the "Battle on the Ice." Worth every minute of the time spent learning the Russian.

On Saturday, I traveled south (way south) to the town of Chehalis, WA. They had on display at their Veteran's Museum, The Vietnam Traveling Memorial Wall (one of five). They were holding a memorial service on Saturday afternoon, and among the speakers were author J. A. Jance and my cousin, Bonnie Abney. My cousin and her fiance, Doug Davis who was killed in Vietnam are both characters in J. A. Jance's book, SECOND WATCH. It was a very emotional service, especially since August 2 was the 48th anniverary of Doug's death. I was very glad that I could be there for my cousin.

Dr Vong dismissed me: keep up the therapy and you don't need to see me again.

Good news, Elmore! At least some people do get better!

Ben Davis is back from London. He's quite wonderful on the KISS ME KATE broadcast.

TOD: I do remember having the Swanson's frozen chicken dinner once in a while. These days I rely on frozen dinners several times a week. I like Amy's vegetarian dinners.

I'm glad you were able to travel South over the weekend, TCB!

TCB · « **Reply #148 on:** August 04, 2014, 05:14:01 PM »

T.O.D.

I have always liked TV dinners. Swanson's Turkey was my favorite. I liked the original, the one with dessert, the three-course meal (with soup!), and the Hungry Man Dinner. I didn't like Banquet dinners at all. Also, when I was a kid, Starkist used to make a frozen tuna pot pie. I loved those.
