Besides hiring Fred as your tax accountant!


That sounds like a good plan!

DR vixmom, please drive very carefully into Manhattan today.  I hope you enjoy the show.  I loved it.

I heard a rumor that e rains should end by noonish. I hope they are correct

Vibes they do and your drive is easy.

I'm up, I'm up.  Alarm went off at ten but I just couldn't get out of bed until now.  About seven and a half hours of sleep, I think.

Last night I returned to the Riverside Center for the Performing Arts to see our own Sandy Bainum in Mame, this time with friends. It's a really good production and Sandy really shines!

Sally Struthers is hilarious and the actress who plays Vera has a great strong voice.

After the show Sandy spotted me and came over to say hello.  I introduced her to my friends and she greeted them with hugs--she's so warm and friendly in addition to being very talented!

DR vixmom --you're seeing Gentleman's Guide right now.  I know you'll enjoy it!  I saw it four times and really wish I had planned to see it again in NY. It's coming to the Kennedy Center this month but I can't imagine it will be as good without Jefferson Mays and Bryce Pinkham.

Sunday afternoon greetings!  Rainy and foggy here in Boston and I'm very glad to be staying in the hotel that's connected to the convention center.  On my way down to Starbucks for breakfast this morning I ran into the son of a former Dayton co-worker in the elevator.  He's an important officer within ALA, but was nice enough to suggest taking a selfie of the 2 of us:

My first session was the Penguin/Random House book buzz, where they served mimosas.  From there I went to the exhibits and ran into several colleagues from Dayton and attended the Workman/Algonquin book buzz.

Here is a portion of the email Fr. Richard sent to Lima just after noon today:

"I am home safe and sound.  What stopped me from reaching Lima was a tractor-trailer that had jack-knifed just beyond one exit north of Wapokonetta.  It was blocking the entirety of North Bound I-75.  With other cars, I had to turn around backwards and drive South on Northbound 75 and get off at the exit just below where we were stopped. Plus it was snowing hard and the roads were becoming slick and covered, and the snow plows were barely keeping up with the snowfall."

Yikes!

My niece wants me to record these, but only make a DVD if certain people or movies win.

Futzed and finessed, wrote two new pages, then printed out everything new except for the two new pages, ninety-eight pages in all, and got them Xeroxed and over to Muse Margaret.  Then I had a Cobb Salad and a bagel and now I must write some new pages.

Went down to the lobby hoping to eat a late lunch/early dinner, but it was so noisy I came back upstairs and ordered room service.  It wasn't cheap, but just right - lobster roll, garden salad, white wine.  I also have a trio of mini cupcakes for dessert, but I'm saving them for later.

Been trying to locate the song "Show Tune" by Jerry Herman.  The Jerry's Girls score leaves out the patter verse and I'm trying to find that.  I know it exists because I've seen it!  But where, I can't remember.  It's not in the Jerry Herman songbook.  I believe I saw it in an obscure Broadway "selections" book at some point.  Try googling Jerry Herman and Showtune - and you come up with the title of his auto-biography and/or the name of the newest Jerry Herman revue.  It's a mess!!  LOL

Apparently there were several winners of $1 million and $2 million prizes

There was a 1 million dollar winner here in town, but it wasn't me

I am very mad at the Cooper's Hawk.  Last night it killed a rabbit and left the entrails and a little fur for me.  Yuck!  I'm sure it was the hawk, there isn't much blood and no drag marks like a mammal would leave.   I'm going to quit feeding the birds for a few days.
