Back from a fun lunch meeting.

[bk]

I've been pondering why I've been feeling the opening of the show is awkward - house goes out, pre-set goes out, then the actors who are onstage at the lights up take their places, which takes about seven to ten seconds, while we just sit there.  Then the lights bump up and the track begins.  I just haven't liked it and felt it awkward.  This morning the solution came to me - should have probably been obvious but sometimes these things take a while to figure out - I immediately called Richard, our orchestrator/MD and told him to create me an eight-bar "overture" consisting of the first two musical lines of the opening number - a nice, big statement of that tune - that will cover people getting onstage and it goes directly into the opening vamp that was previously our start.

By the time I got home from lunch, Richard had sent me the track, it was perfect, and it will go in tonight.

The plumbers arrived around 8:45 and just finished.  Everything looks great and appears to work fine.  For now.

Excellent.

Joshie and I finished the preliminary work on I Married an Angel yesterday, so I am unemployed for a while.  I am waiting for a miracle.

DITTO!

DR TCB, I expect your play to be wonderful because you are in it and you will make it so.  Don't let your frustrations hold you back.

Ditto and Ditto!!  I'm looking forward to seeing it!

I agree and am sorry we won't be able to go up for this one.

[Jane]

Maybe everybody is out starting their Thanksgiving grocery shopping?

This year, I've been requested to make a cheesecake for Thanksgiving dessert.  Years ago, I used to make cheesecakes all the time, but it's been quite awhile, so my mom wants one this year.  No problem.  I just need to find my specific chocolate turtle cheesecake recipe that used to use.  It's delish!

It sounds good.

Congrats on finding the solution.

We have a beautiful red sun right now.

Hello, everyone.

[Jeanne]

Like DR George, I went to the dentist today for a hygiene visit. Last year at this time my gums looked nasty and I was having discomfort in my jaw. That resulted in a lot of dental work last winter. Today's visit was much more positive. No sign of last year's problems, thankfully.

[Jeanne]

Happy Birthday to DR Ginny's DH Richard!

Glad to hear it. Vibes it stays this way.

[Jeanne]

I saw that documentary on Kubrick's assistant. Highly enjoyable.

What was it called? I'd like to see it.

DR George, you surprise me. I don't recall you mentioning cooking at all. I had the impression you were a non-cook. Do you prepare other dishes too or is this the only dish you choose to make?

[Jeanne]

Vibes of good health and prosperity to all.

TTFN.

What a relief!

I shall shortly be on my way to the theater.

It has been awhile since Mark Bakalor has posted so I doubt he will see my condolences on the loss of not only his parents home but the home of his in-laws.  Strange that the families watched the home burning on the news.

But will it go on the album?

That’s horrible.

Oh, no!
