Mega vibes to Iris. So sorry to hear about your friend and your cat. Such heartbreak.

Today was a crazy day. I did get my bills paid, but so much still sits on the to-do list. Sigh.

A question for Jrand or anyone else: are we in some sort of weird vortex where everything goes wrong? It certainly seems that way.

But I'd have to walk to the couch.

Can you get a cab?  :)

At yesterday's staging rehearsal, the director mentioned that one scene should be like Young Frankenstein.

I haven't seen it since it came out so I'll have to search for the scene he was referencing tonight.

Along with the videos on lute playing so I don't make a complete hash out of holding my prop in the opening number.

Thanks, Jeanne.  Well, the updates are that they think it's a pinched nerve, which makes sense.  And she has a room and will stay overnight.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

So at the break I mentioned (relative to a topic a couple days ago) that I didn't know Young Frankenstein well, but I thought Blazing Saddles had one of the best theme songs ever.

I'll stay over at her house to watch Henry.  I'll just need to go home for a bit to get my meds and a few other things.

At which point our stage manager (plus a chorister who was listening in) belted out a wonderful, in tune, completely lyric-perfect version of the theme. I only have about half the words memorized myself.

We must be...at least, since the election. ::)

Ouch!  A pinched nerve can be so painful.

How did I manage to get myself in charge of a book discussion for one group this coming Saturday morning and the refreshment committee for another group next Monday afternoon?

Is it a good book?

Founding Gardeners: The Revolutionary Generation, Nature, and the Shaping of the American Nation by Andrea Wulf

It’s more interesting than it sounds, especially since I’ve been to Washington’s Mount Vernon, Jefferson’s Monticello, and Madison’s Montpelier.  My favorite chapter is the one about the creation of Washington, DC, and the White House.

And on pages 115-116 there’s a truly frightening discussion of the Founders’ skepticism about the sustainability of the Republic.

I would be afraid to discuss anything that could be political right now.  It was fine when our group were all on the same page.  I am sure a few of the newer members are on that other page, the one we don't like.

Yes, DR Jane, I’m going to keep the discussion focused on the botany and gardening and tourism.  I’ve only shared pages 115-116 with Richard.

Oh my, that isn't much sharing ;D

Naturally when we rehearsed that scene (A fosco cielo, a notte bruna) is when I got called up to the costume shop.
