Well, you've read the notes, the notes were written on the first of March, and now it is time for you to post until the first of March cows come home.

Good morning, all.

Could definitely have used another hour or so of sleep.  But the feline contingent wasn't having it.

Coffee!

And, ladies and germs, tonight -- TONIGHT-- we are getting SNOW.

Which is what I call:  March coming in like a lion.

TCB!! 

Is there any photographic -- or, even better, videographic -- evidence of your production of SHE LOVES ME?

I also just realized I never decided on a day and bought my ticket for PAINT YOUR WAGON.  This situation shall be rectified today.

Good morning, all!  I slept about an hour longer than I had intended. 

I had a strange dream involving DR Ginny, Richard, and our long-gone DR Joey and another dream in which I seemed to be on a shopping trip on the Upper West Side with the Real Housewives of Atlanta; all I remember of it now is a trip to Tower Records and refolding clothing in a dept. store.  The dream  with DR Ginny and Richard seemed to be about about a church bulletin and a murder.  Richard had a huge beard like Gabby Hayes and a stupid hat, andwe were fighting over the cover of the church bulletin.  I was also directing a murder investigation.

It's got to be that Tylenol with Codeine.

Another tax day.  At some pint Joshie will contact me abut that chart for "I Can Cook, Too," so I will spend a short amount of time visiting with him.  I think I've now printed out ever invoice I need, so all I'm dealing with now are the tallies.

Sunday morning greetings!  Once again, we are NOT on our way to Lima even though our household has been up since about 5am.  For a couple of hours I thought Richard was going to attempt the trip, but he cancelled when we heard that even the nearby Air Force base is closed today.

LOL about your dream, DR Elmore!  Richard is letting his beard fill out until the end of March and then he will trim it down.  He may look like Gabby Hayes yet!

The point at which the sermons start sounding like authentic frontier gibberish is when you should begin to worry, DR Ginny.

Perhaps my dreams are future events?

I'm listening to Dvorak's Requiem this morning.  It's quite beautiful, but i think I like the Mass in D better.

Once my church mode is over, I've got a lot of cast and soundtracks to play, and I've pulled these possibilities for today:
  The Good Companions
  Sitting Pretty
  The Slipper and the Rose
  On the Twentieth Century
  Centennial Summer
  On A Clear Day

DR ELMORE the Dream-O-Matic 6000 says that your dream indicates your wish to have a visit from DR GINNY and Fr. RICHARD.....although you don't know when that can happen....but you do want to do it sooner rather than later. The bulletin/murder aspects say that you depend upon DR GINNY for news and feel rather out of touch with the old homestead.....and while tragedy would draw you back, it seems a very drastic way of reconnecting.

The other part of your dream indicates that you think much of your work consists of cleaning up after others and putting things in order that others leave awry.

It was truly a grand night last night at the opening of the new Ordway Music Hall downtown. Everyone was dressed up (black tie), so the people watching was fun. The new hall is glorious, with an amazing acoustic, and very comfortable. Afterward I had a chance to catch up with my friend, Sasha Cooke, one of the featured soloists for the evening (DR JRand64 - she sang Kitty in Dr. Atomic at the Met). Pianist Jeremy Denk was also featured - I had met him before through former DR JoseSPiano. Afterward there was music, dancing, and elegant desert stations scattered throughout the building. A fine affair!

Wow! That thing is running on all gears. Fascinating.

DR JRand64, your house looks so snug and inviting, but that back yard is a disaster.  I cannot blame Precious for staying in. That snow would bury her.

A belated response to yesterday's TOD: one of my finest memories of an evening in the theatre was seeing Lily Tomlin play The Search for Intelligent Signs of Life In the Universe in New York.

Yes, she was absolutely amazing. I also remember a wonderful performance by a young actress doing Eudora Welty's "Why I Live At The P.O."  I also liked Robert Morse as Truman Capote.

On another topic, DRs: Has anyone read any of these provocative books?

Thanks DR SINGDAW.....what a fun evening it sounds like.  Oh yes......now I want to watch DOCTOR ATOMIC again.....

Yes DR ELMORE for some reason the snow is deeper in the backyard....it is much flatter than the sloping front yard, so that might be one explanation.

I would like to read SOME of those books.

I have been released from rehearsal this afternoon because of the weather.....so that is nice.
