TOD:  I don't think I've ever owned a Sinatra album, unless the Guys and Dolls movie soundtrack counts. 

But my favorite Sinatra track is his rendition of "I've Got You under My Skin."

It was a night of more dreams of dead family members and weird juxtapositions of time and place.  I went to Middletown Mall to give Jason Graae a Christmas gift in one and only DR Ginny - since she lives in Middletown - could appreciate my drive to get there.  In another, I took a family trip to see relatives along the Ohio River. In aother, I went with friends to a horror film at the Colonial Theatre, only it was in Oxford, Ohio, where the bat Mac and Joe's is.

This is another Joshie day for me so I will head down to City Center around 10:00.  When I first got to Manhattan in the early 80's, I wanted to end up in a relationship and possibly have a child.  Well, things don't always happen as you'd wish, some things aren't in the cards, and I bombed out at romance. 

During the 1990s and early part of the millenium, my goddaughter Charlotte filled those parental ambitions, but she's now an adult and chasing her own dreams.  Joshie has become my new surrogate son, and I'm very grateful for that.

I went on line the past few days to see if I can add to my Walt Disney Treasure series. I want to get the Donald Duck Vol 3 and 4.

I almost plotz. Ebay and Amazon. Depending who was selling them they were asking $400 and more for them. Strange though Vol 1 & 2 were more reasonable  starting around $30 depending on the seller. (I already have 1 & 2)

What is so special about these two that people are asking so much?

TOD:

The only Sinatra album I own outside of soundtracks is his Christmas album. I would rather watch him in On the Town than listen to him. I always seem to prefer someone else's recording: Ella or Bobby Short on Witchcraft, Liza on Theme from New York, New York, Mel Torme or even Jimmy Stewart on I've Got You Under My Skin. They seem to respect the music and the lyrics more.

That said, I like Summer Wind.

It still isn't expected until later today.  Our warnings are mostly that is MAY come down the I-5 corridor.  Some local activities, such as the growers market, have been cancelled.  Flooding in areas, I don't think us, are of concern from the rain.  Of course, power outages if it is very windy.

Got an absolutely amazing box set of the entirety of Dave Brubeck's studio albums from Columbia - the ONLY disappointment is the non-inclusion of Points on Jazz, his ballet - it's not technically a Brubeck album but it could have easily been included as an extra CD for completists and for people who have been longing for it since the advent of CD.  Maybe I'll see about licensing it for Kritzerland.  One lovely thing is the Bernstein plays Brubeck plays Bernstein album - I'd recently for six bucks bought a CD of it on Amazon - a bootleg as it turned out, a vinyl transfer from bootleggers who don't even know enough to get a stereo album to rip-off - so it was in horrid mono.  It's a GREAT stereo recording and sounds amazing in this box set.  I'm putting everything into iTunes right now.

Today, I fixed some typos that were still in the program, then I have to print more programs, especially since I now have an updated second edition of the program.  The guy who printed the programs for yesterday, actually only printed enough for yesterday, so that's good.  We don't have an entire run's worth of incorrect programs.  One of the most glaring typo was that the last name of one of the actors was misspelled in both the cast list and her bio!  Now, it's all correct. :)

Back from a two-and-a-half mile jog - today was difficult for some reason or I might have done three-and-a-half.  Still importing Mr. Brubeck - this stuff is just brilliant - you can see the trajectory from the early albums of standards, as he gets more adventurous and suddenly out of nowhere comes Time Out, one of the greatest albums ever made, a work of sheer unadulterated genius.

First a dream locomotive ride to Haddam where we ate at Gelsons which is on the Essex river right next to the goodspeed opera  house.  When ae,arrived just before 1230 it was,virtually empty and we had a lovely table right at the window with a glorious View

I gather this is not the market called Gelsons.

Four more to import, the final four Columbia studio albums.  Meanwhile, I'm synching my iPod for the car since I've added two thousand songs since I last synched it.  I'm guessing that anything I deleted (an equal number of tracks and playlists) will not be on the iPod anymore, at least I hope that's the case.

Be back later!

Well, I didn't have to print programs.  Another board member got them printed, but he didn't print enough for tonight and tomorrow, so I'll have to get more tomorrow myself.  Not a problem.

That would be swell, Elmore! But it will have to be a quick visit. That day is homecoming at the university and we'll need to get out of there because the place will be packed. (The theater is on the university grounds.)

AARRGGHH!!  Well, tonight we found out the hard way that we have ants again in the theater! :o I didn't think about the traps that I put out a few months ago because no one complained about (or, I guess even noticed) them before.  I threw away the old, filled traps :P and fortunately had several unused traps left over from the last time I bought them.  Hopefully, this will be good enough for tomorrow, but should be helpful for next week.

I meant I could send them to you.  I will try again to post them.

Ahh.  But thinking about it, I actually should be able to post them from my tablet.  You could send them to me and whoever is able to get to them first can post them. :D

Right now, I'm at the Tumwater Subway.  They're open 24 hours...fortunately...because the street where I live has no power!  I didn't want to open my fridge for something cold to drink, and I mostly have frozen foods anyway, so I drove toward the city to see if power was on at other places.  It is!  There was no trouble downtown during the show, but the power is off down my whole street.

I only have 36% power left on my phone battery (I had 38% when I started posting) so I won't post much more, but I'll plug in my phone when I get home anyway, in case the power comes on during the night.  I think my data for my phone still works there, but of course, not wi-fi.  So, I've eaten and am going to refill my diet Coke (BK's favorite!), and read a chapter of my book on my Kindle before I leave and go home to a very dark house.

Well, tonight's storm veered 40 miles off of its projected course and changed from a record-setting storm into an also-ran.

But you should have heard the people interviewed on the news complaining because we didn't have more destruction.

I have power!  It was on when I got home about 40 minutes ago, so it's all good.

And now, to bed!

As for the Topic of the Day:  I've never owned a Sinatra album.  Never been a specific fan, either, but I don't dislike him.
