AARRGGHH!! I fell asleep again last night!

George · « **Reply #3 on:** November 11, 2021, 01:49:37 AM »

Obviously, I don't get enough sleep, but still, why couldn't I stay awake?? Anyway, I'm up now.

And both CDs have been ordered! I'm listening to the samples and I can't wait to hear the entire CDs!

I slept okay, not as well as the night before. I was up too many times. Annabelle stayed with me all night, and surprisingly, Stella stayed with me for quite some time.

Today is Veteran's Day.

Most state agencies are closed today.

But not us. Oh yes, we're open for business as usual.

I'm loving Gwen Cooper's Love Saves the Day (still don't like the title), and I don't recall reading a novel ever before with such a continued and palpable sense of loss and grief. The essential okit si far is this: three years earlier Sarah, an older single woman dealing with a strained relationship with her daughter Laura, finds on the Lower East Side a 5-week old kitten she banes Prudence, who narrates the book. After three years of a loving relationship, Sarah doesn't return home after work and Prudence spends several days waiting for Sarah to come home and feed her. For a couple of days a friend of Sarah's comes in to feed her, and shortly thereafter Laura and her husband show up, empty the apartment, fill a van with selected items belonging to Sarah, and take the van and Prudence (it was in the will) from the Lower East Side to their highrise Upper West Side apartment, where Prudence refuses to leave the room filled with cartons of Sarah's things where she plans to wait for Sarah to come and fetch her.

Yesterday, I accomplished very little. Most of my day was preoccupied with thoughts about the 4:00 Zoom meeting, which lasted 40 minutes. Things were clarified and other bits of business that were muddy became muddier. While there is much I like about the project, so much remains difficult and more complex than I would like.

Today I am going to work for a while on Kern's Oh, Boy!, which I've putr on holdf for the past couple of months, and I do need to finish up.

Yesterday, I got an email about a Christmas arrangement for men's chorus that I wrote in 1991. I hadn't seen the thing in 30 years, so I asked them to send me the copy my publisher had sent them, and I asked the New York City Gay Men's Chorus to send me a scan of the original, if they had a photocopy in their archive.

It turns out my publisher botched the cut and paste job they've been selling for the past 20 years and no one's ever questioned it. So. I emails to write to various and sundry parties about this.

I cannot believe the bullshit this ass of a judge and the defense for cleaned up Kyle Rittenhouse are making of the justice system.

I love those two CDs, especially the song There’s a Great Day Coming Manana

The zoom thing went over two hours last night. Interesting stuff, but the audio went bad for about the last half hour.

Laura · « **Reply #21 on:** November 11, 2021, 05:39:31 AM »

Feeling back to normal today.

Sounds like all of us who just got boosters have made it through the side effects ok.

I've now taken care of all email business, and I'm happy it's finished. I will now take garbage to the basement and then head to my work table.

Well, we open two weeks from tomorrow night, on Black Friday. We had our first complete run-through with costumes and props last night, and it went surprisingly well. There's still much to be done, of course, but that will happen.

It's weird, because for the first time since I've been involved with the show, now on its fourth run, three of the cast (of six) are new. Which means that this year, we're having to actually do some "work".

So, after tonight, a welcome three day weekend, then there will be no rest for the wicked until the day before Thanksgiving. We'll have those two days off, then open "cold" on Friday.
