Good evening!

And on that note (C-natural), I'm off. I'm ushering for a local college's production of "The Drowsy Chaperone." I hope it's good. I saw the show in Seattle at the 5th Avenue Theatre (I know it can't compare to that), but I love the show and want it to be well done.

Be back later!

I'm happy to hear you're going on a cruise, TCB!

DR Jennifer, or anyone, have you seen Allegiant? I noticed there will be another film called Ascendant. Does this mean they divided the novel Allegiant into 2 parts?

No i have not seen Allegiant. Yes they divided Allegiant into 2 parts.

The Vixter and I saw the Drowsey Chaperone on Broadway that was the first time I saw Elmores good friend Dany Burstein on stage

I too had to look up cisgender. I never heard the term before

I don't care what adults want to do with their own lives. But I have some concerns about allowing children especially very young children "choose " their gender... I remember clearly when I was a young wanting to be a boy... Of course this was the early 60's when girls had to wear dresses and help in the kitchen and do house work while boys ( my younger brothers come to mind) could wear jeans and climb trees and have fun

Well, it's been a long, been a long day.

Watching the last half of Room.

I had to look up Cisgender and I'm still confused.

Jane, you are a cisgender female. You were born biologically female, and by society assigned the "female" gender, and live your life as a female. Transgender people are biologically one gender, but feel/know in their mind that they are the other gender. According to THIS article, the term "cisgender" was first used in 1994.

George, thanks for explaining this so clearly.

I've always thought of one's sex and one's gender as being the same, but if your gender is that which you choose is your sex that also?

I'm not sure I can watch ROOM. It may too too dark for me, no matter how well done it is.

The boy is wonderful. I liked his performance even better than the mother's. And yet she won the Oscar. Go figure.

Boys certainly had the advantage then. I never wanted to be a boy, but I hated being pushed into female stereotypes. For many years I refused to wear pink. I'll wear it now, but very seldom. Those stereotypes were sooo rigid!

Perhaps there was a reluctance to give the award to a child over an adult?

Vixmom, would you tell The Vixter that some of us at HHW would really like a few posts from her now and then to let us know how she's doing and what she's doing?

Jeanne · « **Reply #107 on:** April 14, 2016, 09:03:49 PM »

I'll try to be back later to say hello to TCB. I do assume, though, that he'll have a tablet or something with him and will be able to post while traveling.

For something lighter, I started watching an old TV version of Best Foot Forward. Fun show. Pat Carroll is a riot.

Back from a good rehearsal in which I had most of my cast for the first two hours. Once again, the director with whom I'm sharing them tried to run herd over us proclaiming she had to have them thirty minutes earlier than agreed and I agreed - NOT to dismiss them one second before the time I was promised.

We reviewed, I blocked a number involving a quartet of men - that took quite a bit of time - I blocked four blackout sketches, and got a duet on its feet. So, a good day - the solo numbers are all cake so I'm not even thinking about those right now.

Then I had a wonderfully wonderful dinner with Pogue, who's here for the eulogy for his pal Larry Drake. I tried for Genghis Cohen but he wanted one of our regular haunts so it was House of Pies. Fortunately, the good chef was there - we both had two broasted chicken breasts - he had his with mashed potatoes and I had mine with a few fries. We both had small dinner salads, too - the chicken was really out of this world. And we had a great time catching up - we laughed and laughed and just when we thought we could laugh no more, we laughed again.

And now, may I just exclaim - pager FOUR? Really? We'd better have a frenzy or three or things will get ugly around here.

Thanks to dear reader Jane's comment about the new book. Awaiting others.

Good evening!

Page four? Really?

TCB · « **Reply #117 on:** April 14, 2016, 10:38:00 PM »

This does not bode well for the weekend.

TCB · « **Reply #118 on:** April 14, 2016, 10:38:32 PM »

Of course, it doesn't bode well for Thursday either.

Just one more post.
