Sunday afternoon greetings! This was a Lima day for us and as soon as we got home we did a little "nosy neighboring." The house kitty-corner to ours is for sale and open today, so Richard, Mary Linda, and I went to see it. Not one of us is ready to move across the street, but we're hoping they can sell it for what they're asking.

Thanks, DR KevinH! It's been really good, and I'm looking forward to dinner tonight with Joshie and Rob.

Thanks to all for the kind words.

I don't think I can stand to watch the Emmy Awards tonight.....so many UNworthy people and series are nominated.....or I guess I should say....series I don't like or watch and people whose talents I don't appreciate.....

Shouldn't you be on eBay selling friends?

My last load of laundry is in the dryer

I just put my first load of laundry in the washing machine.

I'm back from seeing my sister and getting some stuff at Costco.

I have time to do a couple more loads of laundry before rehearsal.

Watching a weird movie called Colma the Musical, which is set in a town with more dead people than living.

The Emmy Awards are on tonight. Is anyone going to watch?

We are entertaining tonight.

Our guests do not watch any tv nor do they go to movies.

KevinH · « **Reply #72 on:** September 20, 2015, 03:57:04 PM »

I'm recording the Emmy Awards too. I'll fast forward when I watch-- just like DR George.

KevinH · « **Reply #73 on:** September 20, 2015, 04:00:01 PM »

DR Jeanne -- you asked about the DC weather. We've had some nice days--not too humid. Temps in the low 80s. Cooler today.

Glad to know those Vixes are safely ensconced in Florida, enjoying a well deserved vacation.

Vixmom, as nice as the Downtown Disney area still is, I strongly believe they unnecessarily threw away so much of what made it great and better diversified in terms of activities. The original Pleasure Island was unique and wonderful. I'm thinking back ten to fifteen years ago.

I agree I have fond memories of the Adventures Club I wish they would bring that back

What a perfect day. The commute to universal took no time at all, the parks were not at all crowded, by 11:30 we had done the most popular rides

Escape from Gringotts
Kings Cross to Hogwarts train ride
Escape from Hogwarts
Dueling Dragons roller coaster
Hogwarts to kings Cross train ride

Lunch was at the Leakey cauldron in Duagon alley

And if you are not a Harry Potter fan none of that means anything to you

Had a very good matinee with a very appreciative third of a house. Despite rave reviews on Inside Out, we had this exact same kind of second week - we really gathered steam on week three, and hopefully that will be the case for our show.

Then we had a meal at the Coral Cafe. As we were finishing, the Emmys came on - I thought the opening number was horrifyingly awful and the person who did it thought he was ever so funny, which is my problem with most people who do comedy today - they just find themselves frighteningly funny while I just find them frightening.

Congratulations to Sami on another great show. It sounds as if she handled last nights incident beautifully

vixmom · « **Reply #81 on:** September 20, 2015, 06:04:39 PM »

If you are a Harry Potter fan I heartily recommend these parks. The attention to detail is just amazing

And I am home from a 3-hour dinner at Cafe Frida with my adopted son Joshie, my conductor-pianoist friend John Bell, and my absolute favorite musical director of choice Rob Berman. They treated me to a fantastic Mexican dinner and i had two pomegranate frozen margaritas and then they sent me into shock and a crying jag: they gave me a new iMac purchasaed by the three of them.

I am still in shock and flooded with such overwhelming gratitude to be blessed with such caring and fantastic friends on New York and on HHW (you know who you are, and I will never forget). Some days when my world seems a carload of crap I need to remember this.
