Back from errands.  This morning I need to finish "Curse Those Pirates!" and proceed to another number.

Last night was performance night at the national AACT convention in Minnesota.  It should have been us.

You was robbed! >:(

It sounded like it.  >:(

Yesterday was also a lovely one for us.  I went for my first swim of the season.  I won't go over the long holiday weekend as I expect the pool will be busy.  Yesterday morning I had it to myself :)

Sandra was telling me the retelling of the henweigh joke. I was laughing so hard. It is way funnier than the joke.

Up again - I don't know, maybe four or a bit more hours of sleep.  I'll try to catch up when I get home.

My fitbit tells me I slept 5 hours and 11 minutes last night. A good night's sleep.

Saturday morning greetings!  Fr. Richard is the substitute priest at Dayton's Christ Our Hope this weekend, so he has to do a 5pm service today and a morning service tomorrow.  My plan is to go with him tomorrow, unless my stomach feels then like it did this morning  :P

TOD:

I saw a production of Stepping Out at the Berkshire Theater Festival that Marge Champion directed. I had an extra ticket, which the box office gave to Ron Rifkin. Helen Hayes was there, as was Marge and a couple of others I met because I was sitting on the aisle next to Rifkin.

Back from poached eggs on toast and some fruit.  Did my banking (huge line), did some errands and whatnot, and I'm home until I leave for dinner.

You know I've told my Robert Weede Most Happy Fella story many times here and elsewhere - you want to see why it was the greatest performance I've ever seen and remains so to this day?  Watch.  Love.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icFtTVaJsPk

Our first review is out: http://www.stagescenela.com/2017/07/dial-m-for-murder/

It's a WOW.  I disagree with his only caveat, as I like that actor's performance - he's right about the age difference, though, but I had to use a company member and he was the only choice - but his performance is wonderful and, as the critic writes, weird, which is what I like about it.  I really do think the caveat is the age, though, if I'm reading that part right.

It sounds like a good tap dance number.
