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

I was gone all day, yesterday.  Sorry about that.  Work interfered with my HHW reading.  I hate it when that happens.

Since I knew the drill (excuse the expression), I silently counted along with the nurse up to the one hundred laser blasts.

There was a little discomfort this evening, but nothing to worry about.

From yesterday's Topic of the Day:  What are your favorite historical novels?

Benjamin Kritzer
Go Set a Watchman
Les Misérables

The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie: A Flavia de Luce Novel
To Kill a Mockingbird

And deserving of a special mention:
William Shakespeare's Star Wars: Verily, A New Hope (it's a play, but it is set a long time ago... ;) )

Also from yesterday:  I had heard that Miguel Ferrer had died, but not Roberta Peters. :(

The first time I had heard "Una Voce Poco Fa" was her video:

I love this version!

This will be a strange day since I will be avoiding anything to do with the inauguration of this orange buffoon.

I have my weekend work: I brought home three scores from City Center for fixes and changes.  There's no major rewriting but things I'm unhappy with and want to repair:
a. Go Into Your Dance needs half of the last chorus rescored - about 16 bars - to fit better with the dance arrangement
b. The Great Indoors needs some work on the verse; my orchestration is too polite at the moment.
c. I need to correct some sloppiness in my score for I Happen to Like New York.
