Yeah, I would be reluctant to introduce Thatch to hallway walks just yet!

Vixmom, what a great parking deal!  I was going to take the train, but now I’m thinking it over.  Decisions, decisions.

I used the ICON parking app. Found a $18 deal for that time period and then used the discount code BALL 10 for an additional 10% discount

The facility is quik park 390 garage LLC. Entrance is 62 east 54th

I fixed the date of that Kritzerland show - it was actually our sixth show in February of 2011.  Here's what I wrote about our future star in the notes after the show:   Seventeen-year-old Ben Platt did a great job – very self-assured and a beautiful voice, but then he comes from very good stock – his father produced Wicked.

Quote from: elmore3003 link=topic=533b0.msg1179950#msg1179950 date=1520082257
I must leave here around 10:15, giving myself plenty of time to wend my way to the East Village.  At noon I am seeing The Great Cat Massacre at the Kraine theatre on East Fourth Streets at noon.  It's directed by the daughter of a conductor friend of mine and DR Ginny's.  If I'd realized it was all the way downtown, I'd have turned it down, but I like Ella and want to see her work. I'll take the crosstown bus to Lexington Ave, then take the subway to Astor Place, and then walk much further than I would like.


Have a wonderful  time!  It's sunny and dry here today, I hope you have the same

We watched  ROMAN J. ISRAEL, ESQ. last night.

Denzel Washington was excellent, but the film itself (i.e. the screenplay) had a lot of problems.

He was.

It seemed a bit long and had issues, yet I liked the message.  I was expecting it to be sad.  Overall it was better than my expectations.

Had a solid sleep, but I do believe a truck ran over me at some point in the middle of the night.

I hate when that happens.  Feel better.

Maybe walk him around in his carrier?  I don’t know what those carriers are like.

Where Annabelle did not take to the collar he might accept one with a leash.

A leash could be a nice idea - for peace of mind, and with Thatch, especially - but you MUST put a harness on the cat and attach the leash to the harness.  It can't go onto their necks, as with dogs.  A cat collar is only for ID (and style, for those exceptionally vain cats).  Very very important.

I was all full of great ideas for my first two girls back in 1990/91 -- I got the harnesses was determined to be able to walk them outside.  I think one of them accepted the harness okay, and the other wouldn't, don't remember now.  But even with the harness and leash, you still have to get them to accept being walked around.

(There were other brilliant ideas, too, such as:  toilet training.  Yes, toilet training.  I actually got about halfway there with them, but that's a tough one and I finally abandoned it.  It's not as totally insane as it sounds (google it), but man, it's a long road to success.)

My upload of that a few years ago seems to be a popular one on the Cinema Treasures site.

I should try to do a better scan of it now.  It's a 35mm slide.

Saturday morning greetings!  Easing into the day and gearing up for Michigan's semi-final tournament game against Michigan State at 2pm on CBS.  After an early dinner here at home, Richard and I are going to Oxford for ice cream and a lecture.

I couldn't find my Schmidt and Jones CDs, so I'm listening to the latest few I never put away: Roadside and the Japanese tour of The Fantasticks, which has Schmidt at the piano.

I've only listened to the Japanese tour CD once so far, a year ago.  I was amazed at how well he plays it.  He takes a few liberties (which I believe would be his right) :) but it's a real lesson from the composer on how one should be having FUN playing the show.

Vixmom:  I've decided to stick with the train tomorrow.  I'm in the mood to leave the driving to them, and it's always such a great opportunity to get in some uninterrupted reading.  I'll take the subway up to the York and see you there.

PS.  I just put the tickets in my wallet.  :D
