I had a long dream last night about working at Barnes & Noble.  I did like working there very much, but since the manager I worked for retuired, the store has run downhill.

I need to step out and pick up the prescriptions Dr Keenan prescribed last week fior my nasal issue.  This is not the $278.00 prescription so I can afford them, hopefully.

After that, it's a day of housecleaning that I haven't done in the past two days.

We are back from patrol.  Annabelle's nose is clear but she's very lethargic.

In line with one of this week's Topics of the Day:

Don’t you have enough rules in your life? Are you ready to break free from all the restrictions that have been placed on you lately? Even if you like to stick to the rules, today’s square between intense Mars in fiery Leo and innovative Uranus in conservative Taurus is all about making changes.
 
Your goal today: Find an area of your life that could use some shaking up and then go for it! In a constructive way. Having a breakthrough might mean going through some personal stress, but the result is worth it.

Thursday morning afternoon greetings!  I've been enjoying a slow morning, puttering and getting some paperwork organized.

Well, it’s back to The (Horrible) Wizard of Oz for me this evening, and for the weekend.

I went through the score last night, following along while listening to the music and effects track of the movie. It’s nice how faithfully they preserved much of the film’s incidental music, some of which is quite complex and challenging, and it’s equally amazing how they departed so radically from the relatively easy stuff like the scoring of a song like “Over the Rainbow”. One wonders what the decision making process was when this was getting adapted for the stage.

Is this the version with Andrew Lloyd Webber-Tim Rice additions?

I thought he said it was the Royal Shakespeare Company version, which is from around 1995, I think.  Tams=Witmark handles it.  Larry Wilcox was the orchestrator.

Do you happen to know who penned the manuscript PC score?

It's exceedingly complex, and it's incredible to think that human hands could have accomplished such a thing of beauty at that level of detail.

I remembered why I didn't go on the Bruce Kimmel type commercial - it wasn't a hiatus - I'd done a commercial for a competing product and so they couldn't use me.

ChasSmith, that's why that video was infuriating to me - every time they'd approach a marquee there'd be a splice or a cut - save for Earthquake.

And that, probably only because of its value as an iconic site.
