The anxieties and crap continue.  I had a scare with Thatch yesterday that only added to my fiscal anxiety, but he seems to be okay, so I'm grateful for that one bit of good news this week.  Everything else remains in turmoil.  Thank God for Joshie and Encores!

I became a fan of Mary Cleere Haran thanks to the two albums BK released and two others. I also saw her perform live on several occasion and she ended up living about ten minutes from me.

Unfortunately she died tragically in 2011. She was riding her bicycle when she was struck by a car coming out of a driveway. She never regained consciousness and passed away two days later.

I still listen to her four albums. I loved her jazz influenced singing style and her song choices keeping the great American songbook alive.

Here is a video of her singing. No Love No Nothin'

Great story about Richard Rodney Bennett in the notes. Now all I want to do is go home and watch Enchanted April, a favorite.

I have The Devil Is a Woman from Netflix. But Lethal White also came in from the library and I got 30 pages into it last night and didn’t want to stop.

TOD:

CD - Porgy and Bess, Ben Bagley/Harold Arlen, and a Perry Como (yes, Perry Como) album I picked up at the library sale.

BLU - New releases of Creepshow, Trick ‘r Treat, Night of the Demon, and Revenge of the Creature (3D).

Yes, I have finally made a bit of a return to some listening and watching.

Tonight I play the opening of “Addams Family” for one group, and tomorrow night I go to see “Addams Family” by another group in which a couple of friends are involved.

Seriously? Well, yes, providing the weather cooperates on tomorrow’s. Which it might not, since we have an all day rainy nor’easter blowing in for tomorrow.

But I’m rather hoping the show does go on tomorrow, if for no other reason than I will then have played in two Addamses and seen two other Addamses within one region in half a year.

Friday morning greetings!  Richard is in meetings this morning and will be finished about noon.  We’re heading to Vicksburg for a couple of days and will tour the battlefield tomorrow.  His great grandfather fought in the Battle of Vicksburg.

You would rather them come back, because you won't be there?

The last 24 hours have been a nightmare.

AT&T convinced us that we would save $20.00 per month on our bill if they installed new wiring, so we agreed. The job was supposed to take an hour or two. (The technical aspects of what they had to do is above my pay grade, so don't ask.)

The technician was supposed to arrive yesterday between 9-11 AM. AT&T called and told us he would be late. He got here at 1 PM. While he was doing his work, we had no phone, TV or Internet.

At 4 PM, he called in back-up. Still no TV, phone or Internet.

The two techs went home at 9 PM. We had phone service, but no TV or Internet. Missed several shows we wanted to see. :-(

The 2nd technician came back this morning around 9:30. He left about 10 minutes ago.

We now have TV, phone and Internet.

Both of the technicians were nice, capable guys, but the system they have to work with is really crap.
