PAGE THREE RED BALLOON DANCE!!

George · « **Reply #61 on:** October 12, 2016, 11:50:00 AM »

Last night after rehearsal, I did a little shopping and then got me something to eat. When I got home, I decided to balance my checkbook since it had been quite a while since I had done that...actually, it's been more than a month!

I've been checking my balance on-line, so I know how much I have, but I needed to put it all in my Excel spreadsheet checkbook register and PROOVE it to myself. Well, I got it all entered (at least, my debit card receipts), but it was so late by then that I just decided to go to sleep. I'll actually balance it tonight or maybe this weekend. Having a show open in two days takes up a lot of time in the evening.

As for Pez dispensers, I have a few regular ones, but none are really special except for my giant Kermit the Frog Pez dispenser that dispenses whole rolls of Pez candies AND plays the theme from The Muppet Show! This isn't mine (I don't have any of the packaging anymore), but you can see the Pez candies on the sides to get a sense of scale:

The walk to Staples to photocopy a tax form nearly killed me. These Volunteer Lawyers for the arts want to know for certain that I am poor as they come. I only happy they didn't ask me to send them a pint of my blood.

These scary clowns are now in England. A family I have become good friends with on facebook just had a very scary encounter with an evil clown. Knife in hand he chased their daughter and her friends. The mother said the frantic phone call from the daughter was the scariest one she has ever had.

That is scary.

And here are some of DR Elmore's friends who took part in the oral history project last night:

That's a great picture! And it's a nice theater, too!

Thanks, DR George! It IS a nice space and extremely underutilized.

Wednesday morning greetings! Another slow morning here. I have to shop for Mom and us today before Richard and I go to Miami University in Hamilton to hear David McCullough speak in the Colligan Lecture Series. This is the series in which DR Elmore was last October's speaker.

This should be interesting.

It better be fabulous, because I just came from a very depressing visit with Mom.

Back from a bacon and cheese omelet and a bagel, and then picking up one package.

That comes later DR ELMORE.

Tonight on TCM at 8 p.m. is The Young Philadelphians with Paul Newman and Barbara Rush and Robert Vaughn.

I like this movie and From The Terrace among the young Paul Newman movies.....

I didn't know they make them that large

Very. The father just said this isn't the first from one of these clowns. I know there have been a number of arrests in various states, mostly clowns around elementary schools.

Then it is good you are going out for a good distraction tonight.

I have a bit of a chuckle over the very scary creepy clown incident. This group of girls are 11, 12 years old. Those that used their phones called home, not 999 for the police. First instinct at that age is call your parent-lol

Of course had they called 999 the clown might have been caught.

Jane · « **Reply #76 on:** October 12, 2016, 05:10:11 PM »

I need to get out for a 3rd walk while the weather is still nice.

Jane · « **Reply #77 on:** October 12, 2016, 05:10:19 PM »

It will be a short one.

One of my Barbra friends from Poland is a translator of English-speaking movies and TV shows. I remember she mentioned that she was stumped when "Pez dispenser" came up in one of the shows.

999? Where do you live? England??

And now, it's time to head to the theater. Tonight is the last night without an audience. Tomorrow is our final rehearsal/$5 preview. You'd think that for $5 more people would want to come, but for some reason, we don't get a lot of people. But, we'll see.

Be back later.

I just opened facebook and it had an announcement for me.....

"Good evening, Jane!
Rain is in the forecast tomorrow for Vancouver. Stay dry!"

Nothing about a storm

Time to jog. Installing Sierra on the Macbook Air - VERY slow going - I assume all that will go much quicker on the big boy iMac - but I want to make sure I like it before installing on this computer.

I loved The Red Balloon. What a sweet, wonderful movie. And I enjoyed the soundtrack even more knowing the context. Just sweet.
