They were pry mates.

Ha!

When they say "Life is just one damn thing after another," that is a gross understatement.

The damn things overlap.

Hope you and your family had a good day, DR John G.

Celebrate by listening to a barbershop quartet sing a song about franks n' beans.

Hand me down that can o’ beans!

We had a fine day. It was a but exhausting.

I got to Mom’s room before 10 am, when we had a call scheduled with my sister in Germany. My sisters here showed up and we went with Mom to lunch where she was given a tiara and sash declaring her Birthday Queen (no jealousy, Singdaw!). We later had two cakes, some chocolate ice cream and other treats. She eventually went off to play bingo.

I met up with some college friends for pizza, which was fun.

I will try really hard.

Tomorrow we will call my uncle in Germany. And the cycle starts over again.

Sounds low-key but lovely.

Did your mother grow up speaking German?

I spent the past two days revising that damned first chapter of Annabelle & Thatch. The publisher hated the last draft, DR John G hated about ten different drafts of it, and I finally figured out the Big Problem: too many gripes, too much autobiography. If it isn't right yet, it's very close. The final version is six pages; the draft I submitted in January was 11 pages.

Bravo. It wasn’t storytelling, at least not with the deftness of the rest of the book.

Two Tempest photos. First Ariel:

Now Caliban. That is a snail-like shell on his back.

Birthday pictures tomorrow.

No. And she lapses into it on occasion

Good night, all.

Ariel seems pretty....undraped.....

Jrand74 · « **Reply #200 on:** July 13, 2024, 08:26:12 PM »

I guess I'll have to go find out what happened to....that dumbass.....

But I second DR singdaw's wish to be sure.

Our Saturday night audience was good for the most part. Our LL - who is throwing out a lot of brilliant ad libs has decided that we need smarter audiences.

singdaw · « **Reply #202 on:** July 13, 2024, 08:28:57 PM »

If only the audience would come early and participate in her workshop before the show, perhaps they'd "get" her better.

singdaw · « **Reply #203 on:** July 13, 2024, 08:30:27 PM »

Good night, friends.

Well I have read it - and I won't say what I really wish because the FBI would come to my house.

Simmons died the day after his birthday.

I hope he was able to enjoy his birthday.
