And yes, Jane.  I did see those responses before I purchased a new trimmer.  I haven't purchased anything, yet.

Today, I'm going with my sister and her boyfriend to the Mpowerment's Annual Red Ribbon Gala & Silent Auction:

Mpowerment Washington holds a gala every year - a social event that raises funds to provide HIV/AIDS awareness outreach and education to Thurston, Mason, Lewis and other counties across Washington State.

DR George, you asked about sending the booklet for me and Josh to sign.  Of course.  I'm flattered that you asked me.

I'm sitting here in my boxer shorts, trying to decide if I wear shorts or long pants today.  I prefer shorts if I'm not going out, since long pants are torture to get my legs into tangled fabric casings, but if it gets chilly in the apartment, shorts will then be a problem.

Speaking of the cats, one of them vomited on the kitchen rug, and I stepped in it on my way from the bathroom.  I had to change socks. Oy!

I went back to bed after feeding them for two more hours.  I slept little, but I had no urge to get out of bed.

It’s hard to believe that, after hundreds of years, cats’ maids are still not unionized.

Yes DR FJL I do believe they changed Beetlejuice lyrics for the Tony Awards.....

I wonder if the chickens can see the lights from their Co-Op at DR GEORGE's sister's house.

So, here I sit, waiting for the snow to get here.

I have one last song to proofread, and a few from the past week to look over. That will get done this morning.

I’m very grateful that I don’t have to lug equipment for this show. Just my better keyboard bench and stand light, and a few cables. I can use their keyboard and everything else. Come to think of it, that is probably going to be the case at the next jernt for the show following this one.

Today is World AIDS Day.  On the New York City Gay Men's Chorus and Alumni Facebook page, my friend Jim Vivyan posted a 20-minute video of photos of the 200+ members who have died.  Too many of them were friends during my tenure as staff arranger between 1981 and 1998, and I would swear that between 1984 and 1995, the Chorus sang for a memorial service for a dead member or friend or supporter of the Chorus. 

The photos got to Michael MacDonald, the dear man who hanged my window blinds for me, and I lost it.  His partner, Neil Bickford, had already died, and I remember Michael telling me, I'll be gone soon.  Neil was a huge opera queen and he adored Renata Scotto.  She called him shortly before he died.

My dear friend Bill Tynes gave me a career, and I orchestrated for his company, The New Amsterdam Theatre Company, until his death in January 1986.  JUBILEE was his gift to me, and there have been so many times since January 1986 that I've wanted to call him and dish about recordings and revivals.  I think he would have fallen completely in love with John McGlinn's complete Show Boat recording.

DR TCB,  I knew there was a slight possibiluty of snow.  We might have gotten some but I don't see evidence of any.  Maybe Keith did when he got up.
