Of course I shall communicate here.  I shall communicate that perhaps some ice cream will perk up this disgusting day and that includes all the irritating, insane drivers who have almost caused accidents today.  They are out in force.  Is Mercury in Mars or Uranus or Pluto or something?

Page four?  Really?

Surviving Hell vibes for MR BK.

[Jrand74]

Vibes for the niece of DR TCB.....

[Jrand74]

Tonight for the first time in many moons....I have nothing that has to be done....I don't see anything that I need to watch on the teevee, so I am going to listen to some more 45 RPM phonograph records....

I'm reminded by these last few posts of the title of this Hill Street Blues episode, Moons Over Uranus

Well, this is already the day from hell.

~~~Hell-Be-Done Vibes for BK!!~~~

[George]

Well after six hours, we have a cast.  Paul is played by someone who is definitely NOT Robert Redford or even a RR Type....but he is a solid dependable guy....and our telephone man is the head of the local Chamber of Commerce....so that should sell some tickets....

And so the show goes on....

I will try to get a "cast photo" to post at tomorrow night's read thru...the rehearsal schedule is finished....although SISTER ACT work may cause some of it to be revised.  My assistant has said that she can handle run throughs of scenes if they have already been blocked.  I have been waiting five years for her to decide she can do that!

Good news on finally casting the role, Jrand!

BK, I have a sweatshirt that says, “There’s nothing wrong with me that a little ice cream won’t fix.”

[Jane]

Well, this is already the day from hell.

Sorry.

[Jane]

MEGA VIBES to BK and ELMORE and anyone else needing them!

DITTO!

Took today off to attend a noon book discussion in at the public library in Hamilton.  The book was The Paris Wife, one of my favorites, and Cynthia did a good job reviewing it for us.

It is the only book I have read by this author.  It did not make me interested in reading more of her books.  Did you like it?

[Jane]

George, sorry about your game.  Have fun playing it again.

Thanks, Jane.  It is fun, and it takes a long time to play, so this is just a little blip in the whole scheme of things.

Those games do last a long time-lol

[Jane]

Congrats to DR Jrand on finding an actor to play Paul.

[Jane]

I was finally able to read the notes, see the photos, and watch the videos.  They were worth the wait.

[Jane]

Vibes there is a New York gathering to see Kay Cole.

[Jane]

As much as I miss living in Ashland there are days I am glad we are here instead, especially in the winter and in the summer during fire season.  I am still on the roster for my hiking group and and just received the following email.

Much as I hate to give in to the elements, it just isn't right to encourage a bunch of "older" adults to slog up and down trails in air that has been deemed "Unhealthy."

Yes, DR Jane, I did like it.  She has a new novel that’s based on the life of Hemingway’s third wife Martha Gelhorn.  That one interests me, too.

More videos coming in tomorrow's notes.

I want one.  The only ice cream I have here is low-cal rocky road and there's something I'm not liking about it.  I may go out and find something else later.

Listening to George Shearing.  Tonight's viewing is the new Criterion Blu and Ray of A Matter of Life and Death.

There’s some Graeter’s Salted Caramel Chocolate Chip our freezer.  It’s calling my name...

I suppose if I liked these people I would have enjoyed reading about them

Well, there is that...

I’m attracted to the time period and the locale, so liking the people isn’t a requirement for me.

Well, speaking of ice cream, I had some Schwan's Chocolate Malt Push-Ems® at home.  Today, we had a summer potluck at work and I forgot to bring something!  I rushed home and got the Chocolate Malt Push-Ems® and some Hippeas (Jane, the power pepper version!) and brought those for the potluck.  The Hippeas actually went fairly quickly, but there are still some Push-Ems® left.  I'm going to have one of those now since I didn't have one earlier.

[John G.]

If not, this is the day from hell.

I'll second, third and fourth that.

I was going to suggest you cast a Paula and do a lesbian newlywed version of Barefoot.

Interesting thing about the "Color Purple" musical the first time I saw it was that at intermission, the feel was so hopeless, and I asked if anyone had seen the movie because if it ends up this hopeless, that was just the wrong day for this experience, so tell me does it end uplifting for as sad as it feels now.  (It was very well done, almost too much so, but act 1 curtain came down on uncompromising despair.)

The book was a punch in the gut several times over before a sense of peace comes over the characters at the end. I loathed the movie. Spielberg at his prettiest. His scenes were so gorgeous that you expect all scenes of domestic abuse to be artistic. It did not make for anything believable.
