Well, you've read the notes, the notes and the Anita Kerr Singers told it like it is, and now it is time for you to post until the Anita Kerr Kows come home.

And the word of the day is: QUIXOTIC!

In the last week, my niece has had me record two Hallmark movies and put them on Blu-rays for her.

These movies are so generic and bland. What's the appeal??

Yesterday, I went to my parents' house and helped my mom get her laundry room ready for the second washer and dryer set to be delivered. The first set couldn't be installed because they were too big by just a couple of inches to fit where they need to go. This set fit perfectly, so they could stay. Unfortunately, the washer is kind of loud and it's pretty much in the middle of their house, so you can't really get away from it. We'll see if it's really annoying when she starts using it on a regular basis.

As is standard at this time in the world, I have no specific plans for the day. I should start doing more laundry and cleaning, so I guess that's the plan. We'll see.

Actually, the plan is to watch Doug's play, In My Mind's Eye. That's the plan!

But first, I'm off to bed.

Have a good day, all!

Yes, watch, tell us your thoughts. Ask questions.

Listening to a splendid symphony by Heikki Suolahti - he passed away in 1936 having just turned sixteen. I gather this was written when he was fourteen or fifteen.

Good morning, all!

Very restless sleep last night, with strange dreams. The only one I remember now has to do with finishing a project and clearing out. My friend Jim Martin, conductor of several shows between 1973 and 1979, was in it. He was the conductor of a score I had written, and the performance was over. I remember bits of the dream: a scotch tape dispenser that was stuck and thrown against a wall to unstick, looking over the score with the conductor, and packing cartons. I think by the end opf the dream much of my mother's family was in it.

Everyone ate this morning. That bodes good.

City Vet remains open, I assume. Dr. Mohr is one of about eight vets who work there. I see her and Dr. Romero the most often.

I plan to finish watching Sanditon today. I may move on to my friend Sam Irvin's new blu-ray of Frankenstein: the True Story. Sam almost hired me in 1980 or 1981 to score a thriller he had directed but turned me down when I told him I had no sound studio experience. That led me to work for Ben Bagley, who was at the time the only record producer I knew at the time, as a music copyist and later orchestrator, so I could get inside a recording studio.

Those who are Skip's Facebook friends know that he was attacked outside the West Bank Cafe, where he was picking up food and had money in his hand inside the vestibule on the way in to the restaurant.

(They of course only do take out or delivery like all retsuarnats who have been open.)

From now on, since they also deliver, we'll do that, as we did yesterday. But he seemed Ok enough to walk Liam yesterday, though others are doing the more lengthy walks for now.

It was fascinating to see the clear guidance we've been getting lately that it's very specifically almost always when our hand has the virus i and we then touch our face that gives us the virus, which seems to say don't worry about what's on your hand unless you then touch your face.

I keep thinking "?Don't touch the face" from "Please hello" but I guess that's not that familiar a reference. to non-theater lovers.

I have not yet seen very guidance on putting contact lenses in, but I assume that means at least wash your hands REALLY REALLY well before putting the lenses in - I'm assuming that means put in one lens, then wish your hands again before putting the other lens. in.

Anita Kerr used to be my publicity client.

Nice lady.

Tomorrow (Monday), if all goes as planned, I should get the proofs of 2 of the 4 books that I am re-publishing via Amazon. The other 2 proofs are due on Wednesday.

(My previous publisher is ceasing business.)

I hate proof-reading, but it has to be done.

And, it keeps me busy during this difficult time.

I also have 2 performers doing audio editions of my one-person plays.

Allows me to wear my director hat again.

Druxy · « **Reply #20 on:** March 29, 2020, 05:49:35 AM »

I also have another one-person play that I will start writing soon.

If you pick the right subject, these plays do sell well (particularly with drama students), and you even get an occasional production.

I got a FB message from Dr. Mohr. She and family are sequestered in Connecticut. I sent her an Annabelle update.

Horrible story about Skip, Fred. Vibes to you both.

I had a terrible night of sleep. Don’t know what caused it. But a James Bond novel on audio, Moonraker, put me to sleep in minutes.

John G. · « **Reply #25 on:** March 29, 2020, 06:21:16 AM »

It’s Sunday. I’m able to live stream services. I can hear a number of people in the background. I guess some don’t get it.

Even if the church is practicing social distancing.

I think my grandmother used to use QUIXOTIC when she made her moonshine.
