Good morning, all.

Like Vixmom, I awoke early and can’t get back to sleep. It’s already too warm.

I ad libbed "Cheese and crackers" when the floor dropped at rehearsals and the director said I can keep it in.

Today is the family reunion.

Of course the cousin who created the Facebook group has gone off the rails.....she wanted everyone to list what food they were bringing and just a few folks commented.

So she then said Okay - everyone bring their own picnic lunch....and we'll have a church service and big prayer before hand.....

I said.....come on, Pam! Although I was thinking something else. I wrote it's a pitch in or what's the point? No reply.

Of course there are many different religious organizations represented in our family - so I guess everyone will get a turn.

And it's raining. So that's perfect.

Oh my, DR Jrand72.

Sounds…..um, fine. What could be better?

Will you be packing a flask?

ChasSmith · « **Reply #38 on:** June 25, 2023, 06:29:21 AM »

Looks like we’re in for a bout of warm-ish humid sometimes-rainy weather. Yuck.

By this evening it should be time to begin running a little A/C.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #40 on:** June 25, 2023, 06:32:03 AM »

(How little IS it?? - I hear you asking.)

ChasSmith · « **Reply #41 on:** June 25, 2023, 06:33:09 AM »

In other news, I had a big running around day yesterday, and I’m beat.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #42 on:** June 25, 2023, 06:36:09 AM »

I have never been to a chiropractor.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #43 on:** June 25, 2023, 06:36:35 AM »

In case anyone was wondering.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #44 on:** June 25, 2023, 06:39:33 AM »

But now you know.

Wasn't that a teevee show... When Families Go Wrong?

If there's not enough food for the potluck, I hear DR vixmom is puttin' on a spread.

Happy Sunday! There's a new Broadway Radio Show...Broadway performer Matthew Scott joins me to chat about his new album The Jesus Year: A Letter From My Dad. It's a fascinating story and a terrific album. Check it out:

Hello, Sunday! It's everyone today!

Wait!

Reverse that!

Hello, everyone! It's Sunday!

I awakened a couple of times during the night. Each time, I very groggily thought it was a weekend day but nothing specific. Didn't matter. I lost no sleep over it. Just dropped back off.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #51 on:** June 25, 2023, 07:02:20 AM »

True DR singdaw.....I wonder what time DR VIXMOM wants us there?

singdaw · « **Reply #52 on:** June 25, 2023, 07:02:59 AM »

This gal really knows how to celebrate Pride!

Nothing of note has happened since my last post of last night.

I am looking forward to today's Zoom chat with my fellow film music lovers. I presume we will discuss film music during the course of our chat. We have all gotten so familiar with one another that we discuss other issues. And we discuss nonsensical things, as well. But mostly sensical things, I guess.

One of our members is a musician (composer/conductor) with the Joffrey Ballet. He used to coordinate music for the Jimmy Awards. The Jimmy Awards are a national celebration of outstanding student achievement in high school musical theatre. They are presented by The Broadway League Foundation and recognize individual artistry in vocal, dance, and acting performance. The winners and nominees are selected from regional competitions across the country and perform on a Broadway stage. The awards are named after the late Broadway producer James M. Nederlander.

He has a love of film music,but enriches our chats with tales of the ballet doings. Composer Thomas Newman wrote a piece for the Joffrey over the last year and this guy worked on it. His name is Michael Moricz.

Thanks for your report on TCB's memorial service, DR George.

Michael's last association with the Jimmys was during the pandemic. It was a weird setup and it challenged Michael into a near frenzy. Everything was done via Zoom, and Michael had to get performances by combining Zoomed material. It worked out, but it was way more work than it should have been. Happily, it did not compete with his Joffrey work because the ballet was on hiatus.

Everyone remembers the pandemic, don't they? It truly changed the world.

The beauty of this day is streaming through my windows as I type. Of course, I am very cool and comfy at my laptop, but it's already 80 degrees outside, and it generally gets much warmer in the afternoon, which is several hours away.

Speaking of things streaming...
