Back to work - 29 more days of school - but are jammed packed with events, shows, etc.  They will move along quickly, I am very sure.


It sounds like fun.

John Singleton is being taken off life support. He’s only 51.  Sad.

Not much younger than Luke Perry.  One thinks of strokes happening to older people but I know too many people my age with children who have had strokes, very scary.

I am reading the story behind this headline "‘Brady Bunch’ star slams anti-vaxxers for using measles episode to promote their claims".

I can't think of a more ridiculous argument not to vaccinate.

With our last move we gave away most of our collected books and stopped buying new ones.

Jo Loesser and I made two memorable trips together in 1997, the first was to Logan, Utah, in July to help the Utah Festival Opera with a wonderful production of Greenwillow.  I was in charge of all the musical revisions, and I had been in Utah from the week before July 4 through July 5, supervising things.  After the July 4 orchestra rehearsal, I flew back to Manhattan and Jo flew to Salt Lake City.  Two days later, she called me and said, I need you here tomorrow!  And around 5:30am, I boarded a flight back to Salt Lake City, where I spent two weeks on the production - she wanted me to rescore "Coulda Been A Ring," which I did - and palling around that part of Utah with Jo as a most entertaining chauffeur.

In November, I realized I had absolutely no work lined up to get me through the New Year, so I applied for a Christmas job at Barnes & Noble.  I dropped off the application around 6:00pm, and the next morning I got a call about an interview.  I went in, spoke to the first floor manager, and was hired.  When I got home, there was a phone call from Jo.  She needed to book my ticket for London.  I had been working on some of the cut material from The Most Happy Fella for a new recording, and Jo decided she needed me there as the editor.  My memories of that trip - besides the wonderful company, musicians, and dinners - was Christmas shopping and antique hunting with Jo in early December.  She was so much fun.

Very nice memories, Larry.

Over the years I have let go, or lost in the move, my little collection.  I have only a few postcards from my childhood collection.

At one time I had a fairly large collection of rocks, and I could tell you where they all came from.  With each move Keith would say they were too heavy, get rid of them.  Into a bad they would go shoved into the bottom of a box ;D

Keith still thinks I have too many rocks though I did give up a lot of them with the last move.  I have a few nice once outside to use as door stops.  The rest are in my office scattered around, in my desk drawer, or in the office closet along with some of my extra dolls.

Yes, I have a doll collection.  Most of them were gifts from Keith.  Even though he thinks I have too many rocks, and am a hoarder, if took a pretty rock off of the beach at one of the little islands in Greenland for me.

When we walk beaches Keith also waits while I stop and pick up rocks on the way.  I have gotten better about leaving them behind.

Oh, forgot to mention that I'm up - six hours of sleep - or did I mention it?  This is what happens, folks.  Back from picking up three important envelopes and a couple of packages.  A good day so far, save for the snotty teller at the bank, someone I haven't had before.  All the others are great.  Then Subway for the meal o' the day so that I can do 1000 calories without thinking about it.

Subway sounds good, but I'm making do with whatever's in the house this evening. Just taking it easy, because tomorrow and the next day are the two HELL DAYS of this run thanks to student shows first thing in the morning.

First thing in the morning, people.

I'll be up by six in the a.m., out of here by 6:30, and whatever I grab at the first Dunkin' Donuts will have to get me through the next five hours.

And there was no check from San Francisco again.  I asked about coming by the Warner Music Group to pick up the check that was supposedly cut today amd I'm still waiting for a response.

In addition to my dragons, I inherited my mother's teddy bear collection and her wooden toys.  I also have several hundred books and that's after I got rid of a few hundred.
