Well, you've read the notes, you've taken the Oscar bait, and now it is time for you to post until the snubbed cows come home.

[bk]

And the word of the day is: MAGNIFICENT!

[Rodzinski]

Notes nominated. Awarded.

[Rodzinski]

Are you there, God? It’s muse Margaret.

In Carlsbad for the night after a snappy day at Legoland. It makes all the difference to be at a fun park that is not crowded. We walked right on to every ride the kids (or I) wanted to. A well-run place. Pleasant employees. The kids had a blast. I won my daughter a giant panda by accident, so we’ll see how that fits in the luggage tomorrow.

[Rodzinski]

We arrived Monday at the San Diego airport just after the downpour had subsided. Today was sunny and like 62 degrees.

[George]

That's great, Rod!  And congrats on the panda win!  Would it be possible (and if you had the time) to mail it home?

[Rodzinski]

Return to the rains of Ranchipoor back home tomorrow.

[Rodzinski]

Thanks G! Mailing it is an idea I wish I’d thought of this afternoon. We leave too early tomorrow.

[Rodzinski]

He’s not like 5 feet tall, just like 2 feet. And soft. Might be able to scrunch him in a bag.

Totally thought I’d never win one of those rigged games but my ball-throwing skills are just too damn good.

Amazing!

So, Poe Nocturne ended this past weekend and pug (the director) gave everyone an original abstract illustration that she made.  Here's mine!

[Rodzinski]

Nice work, pug!

[George]

When she directed a show at Tacoma Little Theatre in 2022, she had a lot of her work for sale in their lobby.  I bought this piece called, "All Dragons Love Sondheim"...mainly because of the name:

[George]

But before the end of intermission, she actually gave me a second painting, and here it is!

[Rodzinski]

The best fried chicken I ever had, and I have said this consistently for years, was made by Skip Kennon for an HHW gathering many moons ago.

[Rodzinski]

Ooh, I like the 2nd gift even more!

[George]

Ooh, I like the 2nd gift even more!

That was is titled, "Some days are Monochrome and Some are Peter Max."

[Rodzinski]

I did not visit BK’s ex wife in Carlsbad, but we had a great meal there downtown on Monday night at a place called Campfire.

[George]

Why??  I don't know (this is in reference to the name of the second pug painting I posted, not Rod's comment).

[Rodzinski]

Ooh, I like the 2nd gift even more!

That was is titled, "Some days are Monochrome and Some are Peter Max."

Lol. pug’s got the titles down!

[George]

What's funny is that she signed the Sondheim painting as "p. Bujeaud," and the Peter Max painting as "C. Bujeaud" (her real name is Charlene).  I asked her about that and I don't think she had a reason.

[Rodzinski]

She just calls em like she sees em!

[Rodzinski]

There was a Lego replica of the Coronado Hotel in mini-Lego World at Legoland.

[Rodzinski]

Thanks for everyone’s travel vibes, I’ll use them also for the trip home tomorrow.

Definitely!

In December 2021 (I only know because of the cancelled stamp), pug sent out hand painted Christmas cards, and this was mine:

[George]

But the very first one I ever got from her was also a closing night thank you gift for being in a show (but I forget which one ):

[George]

As you can tell, most (but not all) of her work is quite abstract, but I really like them.
