Here's a nice how-de-do: wandering into an established old music store in the Proctors Arcade.

Greetings from beautiful downtown Schenectady.

I've always liked the name "Schenectady." Something about the way it rolls off the tongue. Or doesn't. I think I drove by it once.

I am home from acupuncture. Now it's stopped raining. But I like to walk in the rain, and I had all the proper gear.

I suspect The Vixter will land a job rather quickly. She has lots of food service experience, always helpful in a pinch, and has a good work ethic.

Vibes it goes smoothly and she's happy with the move.

Yes, a little-known medical procedure. Much-needed in some circles, but there's scant demand. However, there's great demand for botox and boob jobs; in fact, for every new cosmetic procedure that comes along. The dermatologists and plastic surgeons keep VERY busy.

Ah! More rain. We need it.

I should have stayed home. The play was 90 minutes of torture I can never get back. I thought the premise was really good, but I didn't believe half of what the characters uttered. It wasn't good.

Most of the time I felt I was watching several good community theatre actors who needed to learn that not every line is important, that much of acting is knowing what to toss off, and that their characters are not always sincere and earnest.

Good afternoon, all.

It's been a crazy day. Had to replace the works inside one of the toilet tanks. Don't know what happened there. But those parts are too flimsy. I have to replace one or the other every year it seems -- and it's not like they get a lot of work. Maybe it's the hard water locking them up. Who knows.

I did manage to get some gardening done. Got a new aloe vera plant in the ground and did some weeding. I can't be outside too much or I'll start sneezing, but a few areas are looking a little better.

The loquats are starting to get ripe, so it's time to start thinking up ways to use them. The tree is laden with fruit this year. I was planning on making jam. But I think there will also be enough for cobblers, crumbles and pies.

I would like to read the Maguire novel again. Some of the book changes really bothered me. I did feel the book and the musical were playing to two different groups: the novel is a fascist allegory for adult readers of the Oz books; the musical is aimed at fans of the 1939 film.

I did love the part in the novel where Dorothy remembers Uncle Henry telling her not to sing around the cattle anymore because it gives them diarrhea.

I remember an ABC Movie of the Week that had two married couples Alan Alda and Barbara Feldon and Doug McClure and Connie Stevens.

They decided they wanted to switch partners. It was called Playmates, and was really pretty funny. What DR ELMORE wrote reminded me of my favorite part. Alda was kind of a pretentious guy who was trying to "educate" Stevens....who tried her best. Finally she snapped:

"And what about that play you took me to? I couldn't understand any of it! A girl came out a screamed 'I'm forbidden to love my brother', and a guy came out and yelled 'I'm forbidden to love my mother' then everybody started screaming....all I could think of was I'm forbidden to leave this theatre!!!"

The couples got back together.....Feldon was an artist and painted a naked picture of McClure which was pretty sexy....and the last scene was Alda back at the amusement park trying to pick up another young girl.....

Oh....some of it is on YouTube....I guess they were two divorced couples to begin with....

I am shocked Alan Alda played a pretentious character.
