Well, you've read the notes, the notes were on toast, and now it is time for you to post until the toasted cows come home.

Good morning, all!  This is the morning of my hip injection, so I want to leave here around 8:30.  i have no idea how bad the traffic to Fifth Avenue and 50th Street will be.

I am a bit apprehensive about the procedure, but we'll see how it goes.

Last night was the first episode of MAJOR CRIMES on TNT. They've moved it to 10:00 and that pisses me off.

Bed made, trash taken to basement, and I'm pondering breakfast.

My friend Peter Foley is coming by this afternoon to look at some orchestrations I've done for him and to see what fixes I have to give him on the Provencal Carols he's been helping me with.  It should be a fun visit.

I need to call Joshie and see how last night's event went.  I want to know that his orchestrations got lots of nice comments from one and all.

Injection vibes for DR ELMORE.

Great photos from DR JOHN G yesterday - congrats to the happy couple!

Yes DR TCB - we want to see photos of the new furniture.  Where did the recliner end up?

And as I suspected, the rehearsal last night confirmed that working with this particular man as Norman is going to be tedious......he stands still when he is supposed to move, and moves when he is supposed to stand still.....and he is convinced he has to "act" old......

OY!

TOD:  An amateur magician (who was a lot better than he ever let on) put a quarter in my open palm.  I closed my hand, and somehow he made the quarter appear in the table underneath my hand.  It was as if the quarter went through my hand.  I realize it doesn't sound like much, but I was astounded.  It was my hand, and he didn't do anything and yet the quarter was not in my hand but (for lack of a better explanation) fell through it.  And it was a glass topped coffee table, so you could see nothing happened underneath the table. I still can't figure it out.

I enjoy magic.  In fact, when I was a kid, I spent all my spare money at Gene Fowley's Magic Shop in Seattle for magic tricks.

DR TCB, I only stopped in last night to say goodnight and then immediately fell asleep.   For the first time, in a long time, basically slept all night.  I woke up at 6:00, then dozed again until 6:40.

We are very excited about the next five evenings in nearby Hamilton:

Ohio Chautauqua

We have traveled all over the state in previous years for this.  Now it's in our very own county!

Craziest night EVER, with one dream at three in the morning that had me sitting straight up like Jimmy Stewart in VERTIGO.  I got up, visited the necessary, and walked around for a couple of minutes just to make damned sure I wouldn't fall back into that dream.

Which worked.  But throughout the rest of the night and morning (I slept in a little later than my usual), I still managed to create one astounding world after another.  Each was fascinating.  And I could no more write them out, even for my own satisfaction, than fly to the moon.  A bizarre night.

I didn't know there was an Ohio Chautauqua.

I also just learned how to actually spell the name.  Holy cow.

Anyway, that sounds great, DR Ginny.  Enjoy!

I am off to replenish my supply of coffee, and I'm going to bring home a few everything bagels and cream cheese along with it.

Ohio Chautauqua is put on by the Ohio Humanities Council.  We haven't been since 2010 when we went to it in Ashland right after being with DR Elmore in Canton for the weekend.

DR Jane, you will be glad to know that I've just made plans for us to have dinner with former DR Jason in Orlando a week from Monday.

Ashland was one of the least visited but most important Ohio towns in my youth.  My favorite of three great-aunts and her husband had made that their home in the 1950s and they first had a small farm outside of town.  She later had a wonderful house right in the heart of town, just off their main street, which I remember as being a very nice small-town downtown.  It was a magical place for me to visit.  No one remains there now (except, sadly, in the cemeteries), but I took a drive through it a few years ago and loved every moment of it.

(I started typing Chautauqua by leaving out the first "u", and it went downhill from there.)

(But it's easy, once you know it's two "au"'s and a "ua".)

(Oy!)      :)
