Gee, I hope that George is okay.

I'm fine.  My mom asked me to order a Jitterbug Smart2 Smartphone, and it arrived on Tuesday.  I was trying to set it up last nighf, but there were some problems, so it took longer than I expected.  I finally got through most of the set-up, but something else went wrong and I'll need to call during their open hours, which are 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., central time. :P

Well, even though I got the error message during the set-up, the new phone works!  I made a call to the phone and it rang!  Whew!  I'll still call later today, though.  I'll need to find out what that's about.

My alarm did not ring this morning at 6:30.  Or I slept through it.  Little Thatch became so frustrated that he woke me by leaping onto the bed, onto me, and then up to the shelf above me, chattering furiously all the way.  Then he jumped down and sat in the window, pissing and moaning to the pigeons on the fire escape.  I thought it seemed awfully bright outside, so I checked the clockL 7:30! No wonder he was fit to be tied.

Last night my colleague Jason sent me the new How To Succeed . . . orchestra parts, so I need to check them out for page turns and other problems over the next couple of days.

We've made our patrol.  Frisky Miss Annabelle had a great time: her tail bristled and she purred at a high decibel.  I was going to take her with me to get yesterday's mail but she preferred to dash about the third floor.  As soon as she ran to the apartment door, I let her inside and went down for the mail.

Thatch has decided that he likes receiving affection, so he's currently climbing all over me for pets and back rubs.  He really loves leaning in for neck scratches, and then he runs away.  Don't get too close!

Annabelle is turning into a lap cat.  Every night at 8:00, she crawls into my lap and lies there while we watch whatever we watch.  Then she climbs to the top of the book cases to her aerie or to the cat tree for her nightly snooze.  As soon as I start getting ready for bed, Thatch jumps onto the bed and picks his sleeping location, although by two or three in the morning he will be curled up next to me.  Around three, when the apartment temperature has really cooled down, Annabelle will jump ointo bed so she can bury herself under the blankets with me for warmth.  It's a happily crowded sleeping arrangement.

I had a strange dream last night that was partly a TV thriller and partly real.  It's vague now, but I was part of a team on Skull Island, which was a shelf of rock that Druids or some early group had hollowed into the shape of a skull, with its eye sockets looking out of the water.  The interior of this skull's dome had some power for collecting evil natures of humanity, and it was something like a museum-mall: one area was Nazi, one was Salem witch trials, etc.

The team part of this dream dealt with a young boy and a bomb.  Inside this museum-mall was a pit, one side of which was dinosaurs relics and the other side was early weapons and instruments of torture.  I had climbed down to the bottom and could not get out.  The team had to rescue me and help me climb out.  Then we were all assembling in the Salem area and I could see the ghost of a hanged woman.  That's when I woke.

T.O.D.

I don't really go to concerts, but years ago, I did see Neil Diamond at The Forum in Los Angeles.

I'm glad it's DR Elmore having the wild dreams this week, and not me.

Mine from during the night is gone, but I fell back asleep for an extra hour this morning, something that almost always results in some kind of weird dream. In this one it seemed to be a tech rehearsal of God only knows what kind of show, and we were on the last page in which the show (or maybe just the act) ends in a very quiet moment with the soprano and a taped musical effect. I was at the keyboard which was set up in the house seats, and I was fumbling with the device that would fade the music, over which I would play the dramatic (but quiet) closing E major chord. It had worked well the first time, but this time I was just fumbling it.
