I'm up, I'm up - eight hours of sleep - had to. Was up at noon after six, but I knew that wasn't going to work - so, no visit to the theater today unless I decide to eat around there, which I might.

I just formally gave my regrets for not attending my high school 55th reunion in May.

I never ended up attending any of them. I do somewhat regret that, but only in looking back to the earlier years when it might have been great fun. Nowadays I'm fine just having contact with a few people and keeping in touch with the group as a whole on Facebook and on their private website.

Well, back to work.

Silly me for having never played in any production of Chicago, because these licks are indeed, um, interesting.
Yep, back to work.  :)

Oh my god.

Sometimes one of these just hits you like a brick, it seems so unexpected and improbable. Or impossible.
Or something.

Interesting, too, in that a quick glance at Google shows him being remembered right off the bat for Kiss of the Spider Woman. And Broadcast News, certainly. That's probably the one I'd probably put first. Maybe. He certainly had some hugely notable ones.

Wow, what a story.  Two women, both born and raised in Kyiv, fled to the Polish border to unite with their sons in Israel.  While boarding a plan they noticed their last name called out twice.  Talking they discovered they were half sisters and never knew about each other.

I was asked to make cupcakes and coffee for an 82nd birthday at church today. So that's what I was doing this morning.

I made sugar-free cupcakes, which hardly anyone took.

I made gluten-free cupcakes, some of which were taken; the rest were packaged up and sent home with the Birthday Boy for his grandson, who needs gluten-free stuff.

I made some chocolate and some white cupcakes, some of which had raspberry jam inside.

I made stiff buttercream frosting and piped big beautiful piles of frosting on top.

Lots of cupcakes.

The Birthday Boy's 80th birthday was the last in-person service we had when the pandemic shut everything down.

Doing a lot of computer work and listening to A Broadway Love Story. What an amazing album! I had kind of forgotten.
