George, what is the next show you are working on?

I auditioned for Hairspray, and was told at the audition, "of course, you're cast," but I don't know if they'll decide which role I'll get just from the song and dance audition, or if there will be callbacks to figure that out.  Hopefully, I'll hear something soon.

I hope you do, and you are pleased with the news.

Breakfast at the hotel was nice.  We then walked around.  Since the wind made it chilly I purchased a scarf to keep me warm.  I had planned to buy one of the multi colorful, reasonably priced, cashmere scarves.  Instead I ended up with a solid, not too bright, modal.  Modal is a very soft fabric that feels good.  I expect there will be photos of me wearing it.

We stopped for a mid day snack of puzza and drinks.  The view was lovely, however,  the food not so much.  I had 3 sips too many after the fist sip of the local white wine.  The pizza tasted good enough except it was swimming n olive oil.  We should have checked Trip Advisor before eating there.  After eating we found where we should have eaten, and then we found dead the place to have dinner.  We will enjoy the view of the ocean and hope we don't fall asleep.

IK slet poorly last night; I have no idea why, buy I did.  I also had strange dreams, but all I remember now is something in a record store store with Columbia Masterworks classical albums and Mark Horowitz of the Library of Congress wanting a recording of Janacek's Glagolitic Mass.

Good news that DR TCB is back to The Book and DR vixmom is healthy!  I have to get back to mine,  I've begun cleaning up and seriously editing the first chapters, and I need to continue that before I continue with Part Two..

While walking around I saw people with cones or cups of gelato with an additional little cone for scooping the gelato.  Lucky us I spotted the shop they came from..  The stracciatella (chocolate chip) was  your far the best ever.  The flavorful gelato not only had a wonderful texture it had a superb chocolate poured over it that hardened into eXtra chunks of chocolate.  This might have been the best ever.

I found Italy in early June a little nippier than I generally like, Jane. We had nights in the 40s. Made the cherries sweeter.

I brought the jacket I took to Texas.  Fortunately I didn't need to bring the winter clothes as well.

Yes, I had the gelato of my dreams over there, sometimes three times a day. Nothing like a second or third breakfast. My favorite was the pistachio with a more natural, almost brown color.

I can finally connect to my tablet  DR Jennifer I just saw your latest review and added the book to my "to read" list.

Which book? I'm guessing it was one of the psychological thrillers?  I found you by Lisa Jewell? If that is the book then I actually read it last week but the publisher only wanted the review up yesterday.

I'm not sure if you saw my other post. But the book I read recently was actually I See You by Clare Mackintosh. I read I Let You Go last year.

I missed your post.  Should I also read "I See You"?  I don't have wifi right now to look it up easily.

I actually liked I See You more than I Let You Go.  But if you like Clare Mackintosh and her very British writing then you should definitely try I See You.  I actually read another really good suspense thriller a couple of weeks ago (that  I like more than these two). It is The Perfect Stranger by Megan Miranda.

I had a nice talk with Joshie, who was my voice of reason today.  All appears good at the moment and I'm waiting on a phone call about today;s brouhaha.

Wednesday morning greetings!  Nothing on the calendar today, but I have to shop a bit, cook a bit, and start getting our house ready for my book group to meet here tomorrow evening.  Oh, yeah, and finish reading the book we're discussing - HIDDEN FIGURES.  At least I've seen the movie...

I was having some trouble walking and standing for long periods of time.....so I passed the director ship of The Show Whose Name I Shall Not Mention on to someone else.

I hated to do that, but I think it was for the best.  More tests at the hospital on Friday.

I am not sure if I am leaving the Board of Directors or not, they have asked me stay.....we shall see.  I might LIKE not having to drive 70 miles a day during the summer and just enjoying myself.
