Well, you've read the notes, the notes were like elevator music, and now it is time for you to post until the Clebanoff cows come home.

And the word of the day is: COMPOSURE!

Topic of the Day: growing up, I never really listened to Easy Listening music. I know my parents had some, but it wasn't what I was interested in. As an adult, I've heard quite a bit and have enjoyed what I've heard, but I don't remember which specific recordings I've enjoyed.

Just had the expected computer crash. This time, we went longer than usual without the crash, so that was good. I can always tell exactly when it's going to happen. If I'm listening to music and click on something else the music cuts out then continues - and a minute later we're crashed. Everything's back up and running now.

A few days ago, a theater friend who is working at Lakewood Playhouse messaged me, asking if I would be interested in stage managing any of their shows. I explained that I had very little experience stage managing, but would be more interested in running their light or sound board, especially since I've never worked with them before.

She said that they do need board operators, but would I like to meet and discuss? I said okay, so we're going to meet today at the Starbucks in front of the Tumwater Fred Meyer. I think they must be kind of desperate if they're asking me!

She did tell me that they pay! I haven't been paid for any kind of tech before, so that's something to consider, but if I'm inexperienced, I don't feel comfortable getting paid...but if I accept the job, I'll accept the money.

We're going to discuss...but I'm certainly leaning towards it. Also, I have several stage manager friends who can advise me, AND Erin said that they have people who can help, too.

I am dressed and moving about, the cats and I have had our breakfast, and I want to go back to bed for another hour. Instead I must finish preparing the five Fed Ex for pickup today. I expected Mario to help me, but he cannot make it today. Since I am anxious to get these cartons out of the apartment, I'll manage.

I keep getting emails from "Amazon," claiming that my Amazon Prime membership payment has failed. Since I keep daily tabs on my online bank account and Amazon charges, I delete the emails.

I'm on No. 34 now, and I hope I can finish it today.

I loved Percy Faith’s albums of show music, especially Do I Hear a Waltz?, Kismet and Subways Are for Sleeping.

Frank DeVol was wonderful too. I also enjoyed his playing a twisted version of himself on Fernwood 2Night/America 2Night.
