Back from a really fun rehearsal - leading man was with us and will be great - he's feeling his way but his instincts are great. We blocked him into all of act one, then I began on act two and by our finish time I'd blocked all of act two save for the final three pages - so we'll get to act three on Monday night.
The strangest thing happened this morning. The sun was out and it was another beautiful day, when I heard a loud rumble. Thunder?? A few minutes later it started to rain. RAIN!! The forecast called for zero percent chance of rain. It only lasted about ten minutes, but as dry as it is here every bit is welcome.
I was surprised to find Keith had already changed most of the clocks. I only had to take care of the one on my end table and my travel clock. .
Turning back our clocks is really breaking the law in Washington. Last March, the Legislature passed the law keeping us on Daylight Savings Time year round.
But we have to wait to get a waiver from Congress before we can put it into play.
The new plaque by the Seurat mentions Sunday in the Park with George.
That is, until I got to the ledge. Hundreds of people ahead of me walked out and had their picture taken. What’s the big deal? I am freaked out by glass floors and this one is 1,353 feet above the ground.

Signed Mrs. LincolnWell, I'll confess that there was one moment early in the show that I thought Maggie was really funny, and that's when I posted my post.I only saw the last twenty five minutes, but I enjoyed what I saw.
