  But this year there were conflicts so it got squeezed into the three evenings. 

Audition Spanx, as it were.

A fine thought to start page two.

Kids are a big feature there. River City will no doubt be teeming with them, and I expect Gomez and Morticia’s house will be crawling with ancestors.

I would have been here earlier, but I wentdown the rabbit hole to watch the Buster Keaton short that DR JohnG posted.

I hope it was a pleasant rabbit hole.

I slept well last night. Getting the decongestant out of my system helped.

"Hail to the Princess Aurora!"

The very first Disney animated feature I saw in a theater was "Sleeping Beauty".  Of course, when all the re-releases of the classics happened in the early 1960s, I saw each in a theater.  But, "Sleeping Beauty" was my first.

And why, you must be asking, is Ron belaboring this?

Because, the word of the day is "aurora", of course.  And I have zero "borealis" tales to share.

I have a follow-up visit with my allergist this afternoon.  I do hope they find I am much improved.  Not cured, no, but faring much better.

An enterprising couple attended a Sondheim-themed costume party.

One went as a merry-go-round; the other went as King Lear.

I did go lie down for an hour. Stella climbed onto my bed and sat on my chest. That girl weighs a ton! I just finished kitty cleanup, but I'm moving quite slowly today. I've very tired and listless.

Reading the semi-caustic NY Times review of the revival of Camelot.

I did not realize that Alan Jay Lerner married 8 times.

Jesse Green writes that when he wrote "Love her, love her, love her," he may have perhaps been outside his wheelhouse.
