THE DAY OF THE DO
« on: December 24, 2014, 12:02:45 AM »

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were much a DO about the DO, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they'll be attending The Day of the MOO.

To answer DR Jane question from yesterday.

I believe there is a direct flight to Jacksonville which would take an hour or so. (Orlando is slightly less)

There is always a Ira Gershwin lyric that fits the moment

Oh, do, do, do
What you've done
Done, done before, baby
Do, do, do
What I do
Do, do adore, baby

But I did get to find out that we won three Eddon Awards from Don Grigware's long list of excellence in theater for 2014.  For Unique Theatrical Event we're included for my production of Li'l Abner and also for the Kritzerland Jerry Herman show, and then in the Best CD category we're included for And the World Goes Round.

Indeed.  But if you're going to play Banjo, you'd damn well better radiate some damn energy.  And our own DR Jrand64 did so, in spades.

Now, just get me started on the required character and energy of a little role I like to call Sheridan Whiteside.  Go on, get me started.  Oh my...

We're trying to decide if we should go see INTO THE WOODS tomorrow.

If we do, it will be the first time we've been in a movie theater in 2 years.

JUDGMENT AT NUREMBERG has always been a favorite film of mine.

With all due respect to George Chakiris, the Supporting Actor Oscar that year should have gone to Montgomery Clift.

Yesterday, I was gifted a set of THE MERV GRIFFIN SHOW from Merv's people.  That's a new 12-disc set containing some fantastic interviews.  Last night, we viewed shows with Oscar Levant, Danny Kaye, Carol Burnett, Shelley Berman, Roddy McDowell and others.

Good morning, all!  I slept late, and I will shortly bus to midtown to drop off a Christmas gift./  Then, I will head back uptown, tidy up the apartment, and ponder how much lower things will go before they start moving back up.

The Luke's Lobster giver has been discovered and the gift is greatly appreciated. I still have no idea why Luke's couldn't bother to inform me of the generous friend.

DR JRand64, you are a veritable whirlwind. I would have been a sharper, meaner and certainly more energetic Whiteside, a rol;e I longed to play in my acting days.

Good news about 3 awards,  BK!

Christmas Eve morning greetings!  I've now done my first cooking project in my made-over kitchen - deviled eggs for the sandwich buffet Richard and I have planned for ourselves.  First, he has to pick up our order from Central Pastry and I have a few more gifts to wrap.  We'll go at 5pm to Rob and Mary Linda's church (without them - they're about to leave for Michigan).  After the service, we'll stop and deliver a present to Mom.

Of course, DR Singdaw - it's been a Christmas Eve tradition for Richard and me since our first Christmas together.  We each have a radio tuned to WGUC in Cincinnati, awaiting the boy soprano.
