It's better than scoodle cookies.

Funny quote, Vixmom and Laura!

[George]

And now, I'm off to see a play called, Or,.  Yes, the comma is part of the title.  I want to see it because it's set in the same time as the show that I'm working on (Shakespeare's time) and they share a character, Nell Gwynn, who was a real person.  It'll be really interesting to see how this show handles the time and the character.  I don't know how historically accurate either show is (and I have no idea what she was really like), but it'll be fun to see this.

Be back later.

Happy Birthday to DR Druxy!

Thank you, Jeanne.

Happy Birthday DR Druxy!

Thank you, Jennifer!

He was also getting very personal... I finally laughingly said he had to buy me dinner first and the folks finally decided to move him into a different room

I would have protested the removal.  I probably would have also gone into puppy training mode

It's very hard to explain legal documents to people with a dogs head the size of Minneapolis in your privates

Dang. I couldn't let that quote go by.

Woo hoo!  I achieved Laura quote status!

Back -- from my 18-hour (and counting) day!

[ChasSmith]

Something I didn't get around to saying this morning is that I was so happy to hear that DD Ben was home and recuperating.

[John G.]

I am getting excited about the New Yorkers!!!

Me, too.

[John G.]

Today was my dance instructor's birthday, so another of her students, Ping, and I took Joy out for a Chinese feast. Excellent meal.

[John G.]

But by the time I got home, I was dead tired -- and I had to make macaroni and cheese for work tomorrow.

[John G.]

So, I have a dish of Krab Green Chile Mac and Cheese in the oven.

[ChasSmith]

I did not get to spend as much time with our DR ChasSmith as I would have liked, so I hope he had a good time.  I basically gave him a pile of music and threw him to his own devices.  Moving about today was more of an effort than other days, and I ad lots of people to meet and cozy up to.

Some good thigs happened about other projects, so who knows?

Not to worry, I was fine, and loved every minute of it.  It was a great day of wonderful music, and I even got to enjoy walking to the market and back with harpist Susan, a lovely person and wonderful musician.

[John G.]

And I need to get to bed.

[John G.]

Listening to Act II of Most Happy Fella tonight. What incredible music.

[ChasSmith]

Said harpist Susan Jolles and DR Elmore's adopted son's brother Jeremy Clayton are playing in the Jake Gyllenhaal Sunday in the Park With George which opened this evening, and I vow not to let that one slip through my fingers.

[ChasSmith]

I pulled out of my NYC parking garage at five in the p.m., suffered one rush hour traffic indignity after another, and got to my own rehearsal of La Cage aux Folles in beautiful downtown Monroe, Connecticut at 7:45 p.m., stopping only for a burger and iced coffee along the way.

And I am beginning to fade.

[ChasSmith]

So some other good soul will have to get us to page fifty-three.

It looked very good in the photos on fb.  I just imagined tofu instead of whatever.

No.  I saw the mother giraffe looking over the reporter's head.  Was the baby born?

Finished with my viewing and shall now take a hot shower.

Good evening!

[TCB]

I am so happy that THE NEW YORKERS rehearsal was a success!

[TCB]

Congratulations, Elmore (and Josh).

Great photo, Druxy!  Mr. Mines was certainly a handsome and talented artist.

Well, Or, was a fun show.  It has a totally different take on the character of Nell, who is bisexual, as is the lead character, Aphra Behn.  Here's a brief synopsis that I found online:

Aphra Behn is England's first female professional playwright...and a spy. She's just quit the espionage business to write her first play, and she's on deadline when her former lover blazes in with enemies on his heels. To complicate things, the city's hottest actress, Nell Gwynne, is getting awfully friendly, and, for that matter, so is the king—as in Charles II. Set in Restoration England, this playful farce is a rush of mad-cap antics, gender bending, and rollicking intrigue.

It has some very farcical moments that I think weren't explored in this production as much as they could've been.  The lead actress is a good actress, but she didn't get as frenetic as I think the script would allow (or expect) her to get.  The two other actors were quite exuberant in their performances.  Overall, a good show and a fun night.

Each day the empty space in my head feels better.
