Back from lunch meeting and picking up packages.  I had an omelet and a bagel.

It’s not bad like Vixmom’s work place environment. It’s just a lot of work expected to come from too few people.

And it was suggested today that I go for something called an executive MBA. Time?

Weill is a favorite. Just about anything from Love Life is wonderful, especially:

Mr. Right
Economics
Progress
Susan’s Dream
Here I’ll Stay

The scores for Lady in the Dark, Lost in the Stars, Street Scene, One Touch of Venus, Threepenny Opera and Mahogany (sp?) are all wonderful.

I remember Madeline Kahn singing a wonderful version of Lost in the Stars on SNL from way back in the day.

Looking over Kurt Weill’s oeuvre (but not his hor d’oeuvres), I am shocked, shocked, at what a small percentage of his work I know.

Are there any duds among it? I’m easy. I dearly love Threepenny, Mahagonny, Street Scene to the extent I’m familiar with it, and most every song I’ve heard in various settings.

The weather was crazy today. It was 85F+++.  I loved it!  I just don't understand how it can be so warm in mid-October.  A few days ago it was something like 45F in the morning.

The scores to Happy End, Lost in the Stars, and Seven Deadly SinsLady in the Dark is amazing, a play with three operatic dream sequences.  I may actually prefer the Salvation Army comedy  Happy End to Threepenny Opera.

I'm at that point where I cannot tell if I'm actually sick or it's just these damn allergies.  I am not feeling all that well but would like to think it's just the odd lack of sleep and the allergies.

I go through this at least once every summer. I’m always amazed at how these allergy attacks are so indistinguishable from colds.
