Since I can't get to my PEACOCK through my Xfinity Box - I tried to connect through the built in ROKU in my television machine.....and lo and behold.....I can watch it there....

I watched Asteroid City - which I think DR JOHN G mentioned here a few days ago.....I have to watch it again....but it was most entertaining and unusual and self consciously bizarre.

I needed a bathroom break around 4:30, and then I spent the next thirty minutes waiting for the alarm to ring. At 5:10 it did, and I really want to go back to bed. Instead, I must go to City Center to see Joshie this morning. This moring, we start work on our attept to restore the original orchestrations for Once Upon a Mattress. It will be a fun project.

That's really cool about OUaM, Larry!

I just hope that a physical CD is released.  This digital download (like FAR too many) doesn't have a digital booklet.  WTH?? :o

Well, here's a how-de-do: Thirty minutes early; Access-a-Ride has just shown up. I told the driver to wait; I wasn't ready. If I get to City Center before Joshie, then I have to wait outside until he arrives. This is why I detest AAR.

Yikes! ::)

George! Glad you got the goods. I was in fear that the Coffee Crisps would be melted.

The one that I ate was perfect!  So, I'm assuming that the rest will be, too. :)

I’m no Jimmy Fallon fan, but this exposé on him seems like pretty thin gruel. He sounds like a moody, crappy boss. No excuses for that. But there’s really little specific in the piece. “Nobody had anything nice to say” is not great but vague as heck.

I'd seen the headlines, but I didn't read any article about it.

I broke down and bought the Cd for Diana: The Musical. What was I thinking? Was I thinking?

Fun fact:  the conductor/music director is Ian Eisendrath and is from Olympia!

Access-a-Ride to City Center was hell, thanks to an early dimwitted drive, but the ride home was super.

I have my first assignment from Joshie, and I had a great time with him today. He played for me his choral arrangement and orchestration for a 15-minute Christmas piece he had arranged. It was quite delightful, and I really liked his choral writing.

Interesting.  I have digital downloads of James Kibbie playing the Complete Organ Works of J.S. Bach, and that totals 18 hours and 6 minutes.
