Well, I must get myself ready for today's ushering. Hopefully, I'll be back in time for the Zooming.Until later!
What is this hopefully I'll be back in time malarkey? I based this on everyone's schedule. I do hope you'll all be there because otherwise no peas and porridge.
Did anyone mention that today is Sheldon Harnick's 99th birthday?
Today, long pants and a coat over a lightweight sweat shirt.
Oreo brownie, anyone?

Sadly, no conductor score. Because: no conductor. Because: no band. Because: just a piano (keyboard). The guy played it fine, but I sure would like to have a go at it sometime. I'm speaking from some ignorance here regarding this play, but though I'm a huge proponent of musicals being portrayed (excellently) on duo pianos or even just piano, it seems to me that this particular play would lend itself to perhaps mixing it up a little bit with, say, some harmonium, or organ? Maybe some harp or something? I dunno... I'll have to take out my Caedmon set and listen to the original band.Better yet, get the DVD.

USPS lost a package on April 10, and today I got an email from Amazon saying an order had been delivered to my door today. They kindly enclosed a photo of it sitting in fornt of a door. Only there are two problems with the photo: my door doesn't sit against a wall and there's no floor like that in my building!
I believe there was a brief Stella sighting on the Zoom machine.
