I may end up doing some inside painting tomorrow. Oh, not at my house (though a few rooms could certainly use it). My friend Jeff who has moved back to town closed on his new condo on Thursday and is now in the process of painting rooms that need it. Since he's off work tomorrow, he said he'd probably call and ask for a helping hand. So, I'm going to be a part-time painter and a part time mover as far as he's concerned over the next month.

Good Evening!

Well... I got over to the local hangout around 10:30.  The kitchen closed at 10:00 apparently.  And the only way to get a drink was to order at the bar apparently.  I keep saying "apparently" since none of the three waitresses bothered to stop by my table while I was sitting there.  -And there were other people from my show in the place too - of course, they had already supped and drank - or were still drinking.  So...  After about 15 minutes of just sitting there, I walked out and headed next door to the Mexican carry-out play and got a chicken and cheese quesadillas.  Very good!  And the tortillas a pressed and grilled to order.  Very fresh.  *It turns out this place is an off-shoot of some mini-chain in NYC.  They're even Zagat rated!

So, at least I got some food.  I guess I'll drink tomorrow night.  Although, now I want some ice cream.  And since the pool hall on the corner is still open and has a Hershey's Ice Cream case up front...  Hmm... We'll see...

But that's my "dinner" report for tonight.

Ah, well...

Just dropping in for a mo so that I am not bitch-slapped.  Have had a hellacious last couple of weeks of nonstop gigs (not that I'm complaining about work, mind you).

Re:  Bacharach.  Show is over for now.  But stay tuned for further developments.  Pics were taken, but not by me, so if I end up with any, I'll post them here.

Re:  A-flate.  I think D-flate is a better key, especially if it's an Air.  (Sorry).

Oh and Jose:  I could tell you stories about Have a Nice Day (I've worked with its "creator" many times).  Yes, I could tell many, many stories.   ;)

DR JOEY - the version of ONE TIN SOLDIER by Coven is the only one I know, although now you have a lead on another one thanks to DR TOMovOZ.

Ok - DR JMK - just checking since I didn't get to see it in person.  Indiana, you know.

DRJOSE - I can imagine how exciting it is to hear one's music played and sung!  What a thrill it must be.  I have only had a few "nothing" songs I wrote sung in a tiny show - but it was fun to hear the tracks and work with the singers....

I never did get back to BENT, so I guess I'll pick up with it tomorrow if I have any time at home instead of helping my friend paint. I've done the play myself, but I don't think I've ever seen the film version all the way to the end. Should be interesting to see if there are any changes.

I went out for a nice drive.  Every time I return to haineshisway.com there is no one in the jernt but li'l ol' me.

I keep watching movies but none of them are completely grabbing me, and my mind keeps wandering.

And, of course, I'm now hungry, not having eaten since the hot dogs.  But, I'm on a mission, so if I eat anything, it will be some more fruit.

I've just returned from a visit to OzDerek. A long Drive!! I will not say he looks well but at least his spirits seem to be fine. (Maybe an "Innocents" reference). Derek is hoping to go back to work for at least a few hours tomorrow. He says a big hello and thanks for all those ongoing vibes.

OOh Wack a doo Wack a day DR Ron. I don't think Gilbert O'Sullivan was alone that much.

And of course your Gilbert reference is in keeping with today's topic.  He did a duet with Peggy Lee.

"Can't Think Straight" is the O'Sullivan/Lee duet. (For those who need to know such things).

Something for DR Rodzinski to check on when he arrives back in NYC tomorrow.

I had to learn how to play "One Tin Soldier" when I first was taking piano lessons in the seventh grade.  I never did like the song. :P (nothing personal to those who do).  Anyway, I'm back from the Seattle Storm women's basketball game.  The Seattle Storm won!!  It was a very good game.  And that ends my discussion of sports for the month. ;)

I've never really liked the song myself DR George. I could never understand why my younger brother liked it so much.
Does the Seattle Storm have an Australian player still?

Two...they still have Lauren Jackson and they used to have Tully Bevilaqua but now they have another bleach blonde Australian woman named Suzy Batkovic.

Tomorrow (at 9:00 in the gosh darned morning), my sister, her boyfriend, my niece and I will be travelling to one of the beaches of Washington State.  I have no idea which one.  My parents took their RV to some place on the coast (they're both retired, you know) and we're going to visit for the day.  We have to be back tomorrow night because we all (except for my niece) have to work on Tuesday.  So, BK I am announcing that I will be most errant and truant all day tomorrow.  Warm up the bitch-slapping machine. ;D
