Memo to self: pick them up and put them away! Never leave newly purchased rolls of toilet paper on the floor while Stella lives here.

My morning tasks are over, and I'm gong to lie down on the heating pad.

I'm up, I'm up - maybe four hours of sleep and certainly a terrible night.  I didn't know what was happening, frankly, but I could not fall asleep, I had extreme discomfort and then it turned into a full-blown allergy attack, which was weird because I'd taken a twenty-four hour Claritin-D early in the day that should have still been working.  I took another and eventually I fell asleep.  Not quite sure how I'll get through this day and I'm really irritated that after rehearsal I have to kill four hours and go back to record what in essence is thirty seconds of stuff.

Back from a really good run-through.  Only about four calls for lines.  I gave notes, added a couple of tiny bits of business, and came home.  I have to be back in three hours, but won't be there too long.  I'm gonna sit on the couch like so much fish and hopefully doze off.

After a day of doing little, my legs are starting to feel as though they want to work again.  I have another quiet day today and tomorrow I have physical therapy.  Tuesday is pre-colonoscopy day, so I will be confined to home, and Wednesday morning is the event.  I need to remind Joshie, since he will pick me up aftewr the procedure.

Good news about your legs, Larry!

The Triumph of Love seems a million years ago, but it was a landmine of bickering and betrayals.  It had two tryouts: Baltimore Center Stage (I think) and then the Yale Rep before Broadway.  The composer did not want the orchestrator Margo Lion and the lyricist were pushing on him, and he wanted me.  He contacted me after he felt the "orchestrator," who's quite good with rhythm charts, wasn't working out, but Ms Lion continually rejected me and put me down.  She was quite ugly.  Once I was out of the picture, the original orchestrator quit, and I do not remember who took over.  It wasn't Bruce Coughlin.

Then, when the show went to Yale, the MD, Patrick Brady, called me to work on it, but I was committed to something else, and that was the end of my involvement.  After the Yale production, three actors were dropped by Ms Lion in and replaced by F. Murray Abraham, Betty Buckley, and Kevin Chamberlin.  I know two of them, and they are still bitter about it.

Oh, my! :o

And there was a lot more warfare and betrayal going on as well behind the scenes, one of the reasons there are songs by other writers.

I didn't know that.

Parasite was outrageously good. And the audience loved it.

No.  It was about horrible people and I would rather have not watched them.
