It's perfect Fish Fry weather.....I always like to drive to the theater in the summer and go through the small towns when the local firefighters are having their Fish Fry Dinners.....sometimes I stop.

My local WalMart had FatBurger Patties on sale...so I bought a box...and they are in fact very good....and thin enough that they cook quickly.  I think I will buy some more.  Of course they were on sale.....and they won't be next time....so we shall see....

As is par for the course, I am sleeping a lot today.

As I reported last week, I am getting ready to perform a wedding for my brother Kent - his 4th - who was divorced last month.  Today my brother Dane came by and announced that he and his wife Kathy are being divorced....so there you are....some great totals for in laws:

Mike - one wife
Paula - one husband
Myrna - three husbands
Dane - two wives (probably a third in the wings)
Kent - soon to be four wives
David - one wife
Molly - two husbands

And I ain't even had one!  Seven brothers and sisters and 14 in-laws.

Maybe it's one of those averages where you toss out the top and bottom numbers?

Back from Sami's, then picking up one small package, having a Subway spicy Eyetalian sandwich, and catching up here.  Wrote the blurb for Monday's announcement but have seen no packaging.  Later tonight I'll take the libretto for scanning to Kinko's and get that done - it will be available as a non-downloadable link on the Kritzerland site, for those who like to follow along, although you really can understand everything.

A lot of times, I like to read the lyrics while listening to musicals and opera recordings.  It helps reinforce the story and keeps me from losing track...usually. ;)

Friday afternoon greetings!  We have relocated to Grand Blanc, MI, and are settling into a hotel around the corner from my sister's.  She'll pick us up in about half an hour for the Friday fish fry at their golf course.

I was never in Grand Blanc.  I skied at Mt Holly which isn't too far from there.

Our hotel is on Holly Road.  On the way back from dinner I asked my sister if there was still a lot of skiing in Holly.  She said, "When there's enough snow."  Apparently winters here aren't like they used to be.

34,000 steps=14 miles.  It was a beautiful day for walking, ending with a lovely sunset.

Back from (what else?) a show.  It got the job done.

Got one tomorrow evening, then we're off till next Friday when Messrs. Jones and Shaheen grace us with their presence.

My only temptation to go back to Hamilton, which I'd only do if it were free and I was sitting in a similar seat, would be to hear the audience reaction at the top and during the pre-show - just to hear if it was exactly the same as last night's.  It sounded so canned to me.

I share this curiosity.  Very very much so.

These mentions of summer fish fries have me salivating, and I've never been to one in my life.

Last book sale o' the season tomorrow.

Sadly, very sadly, I missed two of my favorite ones this year.  Totally failed to research them and get them on my calendar.  But I shall enjoy tomorrow's, as it is only a couple of back road miles from my house, and I brought home a good supply of coffee and doughnuts to help get my arse in gear beforehand.

Have a relaxing and enjoyable trip to Alexandria and back, DR vixmom.

And enjoy the show!  I certainly wish I could.  Looking forward to a full report.
