George, do you know Christine Choate in ROCKY? She is also in my show.

Thursday evening greetings from HOME! Our trip from Bowling Green, KY, should have taken 5 hours at the most, but actually took 7 hours and 45 minutes. There had been a huge accident on I-71 in Gallatin County that involved 3 semis and a hazmat spill. We got caught in a 15-mile back-up and it took us more than 2 hours to get through it. We sailed into Cincinnati and then got hung up in rainy rush hour traffic.

I don't know her. I recognize her picture from Facebook, but I haven't gotten to know any of the performers that I didn't already know.

Good evening!

I'm pretty sure I won't be able to keep awake to watch Barbra on James Corden's show. That's was DVRs are for!

George · « **Reply #97 on:** November 01, 2018, 06:04:37 PM »

Well, I'm off to the theater. I don't know what the crowd will be like for the second night, but I'm sure they'll enjoy it.

Be back later.

I missed Halloween last night. We had a family emergency with the baby.

My husband was babysitting so the parents could grocery shop. The baby started to cry. So I had to rush over because grandpa was panicking. Because the baby cried.

I understand the emergency. The baby cried.

HELL, yeah. Answer me, 9-1-1. Or the National Guard, at least. I mean, what are you supposed to do?

Had a really surprisingly good Kritzerland rehearsal and I'm breathing much easier about the show. Our new gal is still just learning her stuff, but I know her well enough to know she'll be prepared by Saturday. She only has two solos so it's not that much.

Thank goodness!

Glad to hear the emergency was something that could be easily resolved by a loving Grandma

Thank you, DRs George and Jane - we’re glad to be home!

Wow. Not nice. And out in the middle of nowhere, there's no way to just go around it.

Hello, everyone.

I spent almost two hours this afternoon trying to register for my medical group's website. They are big on privacy, which I understand, but they just aren't as organized as they should be. All four people I spoke to were helpful, fortunately.

I then received a call from the car dealer. There's been a recall on the car for months. As far as I'm concerned there is no good time to have one's car serviced. About a week ago I had a window where it would be convenient and called to schedule it. A very rude woman told me that they didn't have the parts and didn't know when they would. Today it was a different rude woman who insisted I tell her when I could bring the car in. Do people think that we all just sit around with nothing to do? I get that impression many times. Like most people, I have appointments on my calendar, many of which are scheduled well in advance. I don't take the car there for service because I've had so many bad experiences with dealerships. Believe me, they aren't encouraging me to change my position.

By then I was not in the best mood. It had been a perfectly nice day until then.

Sigh.

If I was, say, the artistic director of a theater company and I came to see a show at another theater. If I was really impressed with the props, or the costumes, or the lighting design; and I wanted to see about using that person at my theater. I might be able to catch the name in the middle of a curtain speech, but it would certainly be a lot easier if I could just open the program after the show, and find the name of the person.

Very good point.

Watching the rest of this bad German-Turkish drug movie, Head-On. The German isn't helping and not just because they mumble, but also because they are speaking it with a bad Turkish dialect. Now they're speaking in English, 15 minutes before the movie ends and I don't know what accent is being used, but even that is irritating. Glad I only paid $2 for this movie.

It sounds like BK is finding ways to deal with the A CAROL CHRISTMAS casting issues.

Vibes that all goes well.

I finished BODYGUARD. It concluded nicely. Highly recommended Available on Netflix streaming.

Back from a run-through - got through it all and I was blindsided because no one told me that one of our cast members who missed Tuesday was also missing tonight. We covered him and the other missing person and managed to run without stops. The show energy still isn't where it needs to be but it's getting there - I gave some general notes, worked a few things, and gave two new bits of business that should be funny. And I thought we had everyone tomorrow night but alas one person is missing, but it's not a significant role although she's involved in a lot of scene changes so we'll have to figure out that stuff before we run.

Tesshi, my set designer, had been there for many hours painting the set and it looks great.
