I must now nap, and then this evening a bunch of friends and I are going to some kind of pumpkin blaze thing in Sleepy Hollow.

Thank goodness I included NO Blu-rays in this batch. Perhaps eBay for those. Or maybe I'll list here and folks can have a go at them.

Got an absolutely amazing box set of the entirety of Dave Brubeck's studio albums from Columbia - the ONLY disappointment is the non-inclusion of Points on Jazz, his ballet - it's not technically a Brubeck album but it could have easily been included as an extra CD for completists and for people who have been longing for it since the advent of CD. Maybe I'll see about licensing it for Kritzerland. One lovely thing is the Bernstein plays Brubeck plays Bernstein album - I'd recently for six bucks bought a CD of it on Amazon - a bootleg as it turned out, a vinyl transfer from bootleggers who don't even know enough to get a stereo album to rip-off - so it was in horrid mono. It's a GREAT stereo recording and sounds amazing in this box set. I'm putting everything into iTunes right now.

Continued weather vibes for our Northwest contingents.

Thank you.

I had a very nice walk this morning. While my rain jacket and the clothing around my neck is wet my quick dry pants were dry by the time I returned home.

The wind has picked up a little but it is nothing out of the ordinary.

Not much is happening here - and that is a good thing. I got an automated call from my Medicare Part D Prescription Provider telling me all about the changes for 2017 - not many of them apply to me.

I had to listen to the whole thing and say YES OR NO at the appropriate time.

That is very annoying

According to some nut job pundit, we were supposed to have the worst "mega-storm" in history - today. Last I looked, the sun was out (and is) and it's quite a pretty day out.

The worst storm in history might go down the I-5 corridor but I have not read it will reach you. What storm is this?

I'm off for another walk.

Well, last night's opening night went really well! Thanks for all the vibes and good wishes! We had about 17 people, plus three of the directors, and the house manager, for a total of 20 people. They all really enjoyed it! Everyone in the cast did very well, and there was only one technical glitch...another late cue by the sound and light board operators.

George · « **Reply #69 on:** October 15, 2016, 02:23:57 PM »

After the show, the cast and crew and directors stuck around and had an opening night party. People brought food and drinks and we all played Cards Against Humanity! If you offend easily, don't even look it up. It can get pretty raunchy and VERY funny...if you like that sort of thing, which I do!

Today, I fixed some typos that were still in the program, then I have to print more programs, especially since I now have an updated second edition of the program. The guy who printed the programs for yesterday, actually only printed enough for yesterday, so that's good. We don't have an entire run's worth of incorrect programs. One of the most glaring typo was that the last name of one of the actors was misspelled in both the cast list and her bio! Now, it's all correct.

George · « **Reply #71 on:** October 15, 2016, 02:27:41 PM »

So, I'm off to print programs, then I'm meeting my friend Margo to eat and visit, since we haven't seen each other in a while. I don't know if anything is happening tonight after the show, but we'll see. And who knows what will happen, weather-wise. $:-\$ Tomorrow is our one and only matinee, then we're done until Friday...no Thursday performance.

Be back later!

Then we had another trip on the steam train back to the station

vixmom · « **Reply #89 on:** October 15, 2016, 04:10:58 PM »

On the train the conductor mentioned a sandwich/ice cream shop in a old house built in 1789.
