TYPING AND TWIDDLING

Well, you've read the notes, the notes were typed, not twiddled, and now it is time for you to post until the twiddling cows come home.

I can't remember if it was when I went to the All-State Choir in high school, or when I was at Western Washington University, but I remember being in choir and singing excerpts from the Duruflé Requiem.  I'm sure I never sang the whole thing.  I thought it was wonderful!

The other requiem that I know and specifically like is Andrew Lloyd Webber's.

I had many strange dreams last night, and now remember little.  In my last dream I was staying at a luxury hotel with a gorgeous swimming pool, I was with friends from the Miami University Theatre Dept., it was a hot summer, and the pool was closed off.  Everyone was grumbling, why the hell is the maintenance work on the pool being done in the middle of a summer heatwave?

I have recyclables to take to the basement this morning, and I must try to make an appointment for my flu shot.  I say "try" because getting a live person on an HMO phone call is worse than trying to get into Fort Knox.

So . . . the Fat Orange Slug's decision to play down the Covid-19 situation and then recommend wacko panaceas has resulted in this disaster. What a monstrous piece of crap.

TOD:

I could shamelessly crib from DR Elmore's sheet (woops, I first typed another word that starts the same way), but I don't know the Dvorak and, shameFULLy, the Weill. That last must be rectified.

It's also been too many years since I've listened to the Britten.

KITTY LOVERS SKIP THIS POST.




I was driving to the WalMart today to get some lettuce and Italian Dressing.....and driving up my sister's street, I saw a beautiful tabby cat that had had an encounter with a car.

I would say it happened last night in the dark.  The kitty was dark with very dark/light stripes.

It's poor little head was facing the wrong way for its body.
