Ouch DR GINNY....ouch!

That's *kind of* what I said, DR JRand...

Oh man, I've been there...so many times through the years...  v

Vibes of physical comfort for DR Ginny!

I think if you took all of mine, mixed my reactions up in a container and poured them out on a piece of paper, the result might be mistaken for some groundbreaking avant garde poetry.

And we're done.  A great audience for a great matinee.  I need to get something to eat, then I'll go home.

Until later.

Ouch DR GINNY....ouch!

I missed that and had to scroll back up.  Yes, OUCH.  Do you have it well protected.  I recall bashing my poor broken toe over & over again.

Ok folks, the power just went off and came back on.  I think things are going to start to get real here.  Talk with you all when it's over.  I'm posting more on FB only because my family see's the posts there.

Sunday afternoon greetings!  On my way to the bathroom at 5:30am, I went a little wide around the foot of our bed and smacked my right little toe on Richard's desk chair.  Paramedic Rob is pretty sure it's broken, as am I.  I did almost the same thing to the same toe about 23 years ago and this feels just like that.

Yikes

I'm off in a little while to usher for the Scottish Opera. Is it OK to say Macbeth backstage if you're singing?

What's the performing group?  Who's singing?

San Antonio Opera staged it. The audience was quite appreciative. Greer Grimsley was Macbeth and Nadja Michael was his good lady. The full San Antonio Symphony performed the score.

The production was set in the 1930s, and Lady Macbeth was costumed like Evita. Thankfully, they didn't carry that too far. There was nothing Juan Peron about Macbeth except his initial reluctance to murder.

I guess that was a bad thing for you.  I still enjoyed it very much in spite of what you thought it would be ;)

I'd never seen the opera before, but I've seen two Shogun Macbeths, plus Kurosawa's movie; one goth punk musical version set in the future; one set during the Spanish Civil War; one that of some indeterminate locale; and two movies that were supposedly of the right period.

Well, Forbidden Zone has just ended. Yawn. Susan Tyrrell, one of the weirdest actresses ever, gives a truly deranged performance, down to her musical numbers. But the rest, including Herve Villachaize as the King of the Sixth Dimension, have little to do.

The one song I liked, Pico and Sepulveda, appears to have been partially written by Jule Styne.

Go know.

I have yet to watch the Kurosawa film but it's sitting here waiting for me and I do look forward to it. 

I had to sit through a goth punk one that someone did at one of the college campuses around here around 2000/2001.  No idea whose it was or if it could possibly be the same one.

Had a very nice Genghis Cohen meal, but their best chef was most certainly not there - and I think I recall that from other Sunday meals.  But we all had fun.
