Friday morning greetings!  Nita and I had a lovely day yesterday touring San Diego.  We lunched in Old Town and shopped a bit.  Caught the shuttle back to our hotel from Seaport Village in time to pick up our convention materials and freshen up for dinner.  I crashed as soon as dinner was over.

DR Vixmom, Richard isn't here on vacation yet.  He's in northwest Indiana at the diocesan synod and he'll go from there to Lima for Sunday church.  We'll meet in San Francisco on Monday.

Good morning, all! I stayed up too late reading and I slept in  as a consequence.  I'm thinking that I will head down to the NYPL today and stop at the pharmacy for my monthly meds.

I have no other news at the moment.  I need coffee.

Convention vibes for DR GINNY.

DR SINGDAW that clip of Some Other Time is just beautiful!  Wow!  Thanks for posting.

DR JEANNE I think the new moon this week is having an influence on many people...

Well....last night was a great run thru.  One reason it was great is that they cut more than 30 minutes off the run time.  The lines were much better, the cue pickups were better (less acting OFF the text and more acting IN the text)....

This play....I guess I didn't realize how disturbing it would be to see a mother giving her child a deadly dose of sleeping pills....right in front of me!  Whew.....and I thought it would be nice to play Spiegel Im Spiegel under the scene.....which makes it even more.....emotional....if possible.

I'm pleased to announce that my new stage play, LANA & JOHNNY WERE LOVERS, is now available in both paperback and Kindle editions from Amazon and elsewhere.

The play deals with Lana Turner and her relationship with mobster boy friend Johnny Stompanato.

Here's the trailer I created for it.

The NY Times gives Inside Out a rave review, mirroring much of what our very own bk said several weeks ago.

Keith has been wanting to get rid of our landline for a good while now.  With the move I reluctantly agreed to try just having cell phones.  By the time he ordered Comcast he was ready to get a landline again.  It was also part of the package so we had to take it.

We purchased new phones that you can connect to your cell phone and then use as if they were a land line.

I'm afraid I don't have time for much, except maybe, hopefully, tomorrow evening.

Tonight I'm seeing the ONCE UPON A MATTRESS production whose dress rehearsal last week was straight out of Hell, tech-wise.  I've heard the finished product is great.  Sunday and Monday I'll be on a quick overnight trip to Morgantown, WV for my semi-annual visit to extended family.  Tomorrow I'll be getting ready for that, after which I'll try to watch one or two good things during the evening.

Those are my excuses and I'm sticking to them.

Wouldn't we all.  I'm finding mentions of places like this in the menu book, but NO menus - not this, not C.C. Brown's - I mean, c'mon.

Our land line just rang surprising us all.  The workers said this was the first time.  It was someone returning Keith's call, only he called them from his cell.  Maybe the cell is also ringing there.  This new phone is complicated.

Bruce, did you see La Barbara's now has frozen pizza?  I just shared the link on FB.  If I could I would put it here.

And, to cleanse the palate from that...  a lovely performance:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=47&v=qHHJvNuJtEk

Cool!  The bass player is Chuck Israels (not "Israel" as it's listed in the description).  He was a jazz music professor at Western Washington University for my last two years there (which were his first two years).  I was in his jazz choir.  Pretty cool! ;D

MR BK - I am sorry the book I recommended turned out to be such a disappointment.  The write up and description certainly are at odds with the book that you describe....

Somebody was asleep at the switch!

Thanks DR SINGDAW......I wasn't familiar with it, but it was used in the movie ABOUT TIME last year.....and it was on the soundtrack. 

I like that video of the the violin player....she is amazing....and her concentration is amazing.

I'm always happy to have a book like the menu book - and I'm not sure it would be a disappointment to anyone but me.

Not sure why the link in the notes doesn't work.  I cut and pasted the address DIRECTLY from Indiegogo, just as I did on Facebook, where the same exact link takes you where you need to go.  Any ideas?
