Well, you've read the notes, the notes were happy to report it's Easter, and now it is time for you to post until the Easter cows come home.

And the word of the day is: BUCOLIC!

I was just about to post this about Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker last night, but the day got locked:

I actually bought the 4K Ultra HD version of it because it was the same price as the regular 2-disc Blu-ray, but this was available with free (and two-day) shipping from Amazon itself. None of the regular Blu-ray copies were sold by Amazon itself, only market sellers with no free (or two-day) shipping. What's that all about??

A Very

To Everyone!!

Today, I'm going to my sister's to ~~help~~ put together a wooden thing for her daughter's chickens to play on. I'm not exactly sure what it's called...a gym or the chicken equivalent of a short but wide cat tree. Whatever it is, it'll take a while. It'll be kind of easy, but not quick.

And now, I'm off to bed to not dream about wooden chicken cat tree gym things.

Have a good day, all!

Good morning, all!

Easter is my least favorite holiday in the Christian calendar, I've never understood any of the mythology behind it beyond the incorporation of pagan spring rituals. I at least understand the mythology behind Christmas and Saturnalia.

I guess that's something.

End of rant. It will be a quiet day. I will take care of the libretto footnotes and then watch LA Now and Then.

I do miss my Mother's Easter dinner. When she wasn't crazy, she was a good cook.

Last night I had two dreams I remember. In the first one I was had to move the old Toyland office to another office on the same floor. Matthew Brookshire, the office manager of the Packard Humanities Institute project, was the office manager and we were having a hard time getting phone service. Then, the head of the foundation that did the Dublin recordings showed up to shoot promotional video. The person supervising the video was my grad school roommate who died several years ago.

The second dream was about my friend Rob Berman who told me that he had decided not to conduct my recording of Rodgers & Hart's Too Many Girls. We had a discussion about Kurt Weill's orchestration, although how we got to that from Richard Rodgers is beyond me now!

And I slept rather well last night.

DR Jeanne, I'm glad the gas leak didn't affect you.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #14 on:** April 12, 2020, 04:17:28 AM »

DR Ginny, tell Richard I hope his mass broadcast goes well.

DR TCB, I'm sorry you've been unhealthy the past days. I'm sending you healthy vibes!

Thank you, DR Elmore! He refers me to his “director,” because I help him with the set-up and visuals.

Another day stuck in the house.

Happy Easter!

Mass Broadcasting Vibes for Fr. RICHARD & DR GINNY!

I didn't have to refresh to get today's notes!

I took a Tylenol to help with the lower back pain I was having this morning....not BAD pain.....

Jrand74 · « **Reply #21 on:** April 12, 2020, 05:46:38 AM »

Pat the baby on the back if it has BUCOLIC.

I have also noticed the title syllables/title music phenomenon. Mr. Max Steiner does it a lot, too.

Gone With The Wind........gone with the wind......

Sunday.....windows are open and Conrad Birdie Barnum is singing to his friends outside.

Happy Easter, all.

I just finished writing another 2 pages of my new play.

Druxy · « **Reply #26 on:** April 12, 2020, 06:33:46 AM »

My wife and I just made an agreement.

She'll make me a new batch of cookies, IF...

I move her sewing machine for her.

I think that's fair.

Sleeping for two solid days helped me feel better, but it made it impossible to go to sleep last night.

TCB · « **Reply #28 on:** April 12, 2020, 06:41:09 AM »

It was just as well, because I believe the insulin may have made Nick a bit constipated. He was up and down all night.

TCB · « **Reply #29 on:** April 12, 2020, 06:45:08 AM »

BK, Easter and Passover overlap about 75 to 80% of the time. The Last Supper celebrated by Jesus and the Disciples was actually a Seder. They don’t always coincide because of the differences in the two calendars.
