Well, I finally got the e-mail about the first two A Christmas Story rehearsals this week.  Nobody is rehearsing tonight (Monday).  The Old Man and the female ensemble are called at 7 pm on Tuesday, and the male adult ensemble, Mother, Ralphie and Randy are called at 8 pm.  I'm not called on Wednesday.

Both Annabelle and Thatch are behaving strangely this morning.  Annabelle may be coming down with a cold - I hope not! - and Thatch preferred to play with one of his ball games rather than eat.  Annabelle ate his breakfast.  This has me puzzled since he usually eats everything within reach.

I am also worried that I am turning into my mother.  Last night I completely forgot to check their water dishes, so both dishes  were empty this morning.  Between grades 1-12 I cannot tell you how many times we went to school without breakfast (no milk? no cereal? I meant to go to the store last night) or we ran out of light bulbs or toilet paper (I meant to go to the store last night).

T.O.D.

A better question for me would be: "What aren't my favorite films of Orson Welles?"

Great or not so great, Welles' work is fascinating, if not for the finished product itself, then the way he accomplished it with a nothing budget.

If you've yet to read (or listen to) my one-person play, ORSON WELLES, please do.  Edward French is magnificent in the audio edition.

That is sad.  Did you live far from a market?  I would have thought as you got older you and your siblings would have begun shopping, or even keeping some food in your bedrooms for emergencies.

Fun for all this week:

An open, philosophical approach -- rather than a strictly practical approach -- is the way to go during the first half of this week. You are the master of your destiny. Thursday in particular has the potential to be a great or terrible day, depending, in large measure, on you. On Friday, if your energy is flagging, ask your friends to rile you up (they'll be happy to oblige). Saturday's a good day to spend around others as well, although Sunday's a stay-at-home sort of day.

Paula Wayne, who had IMO a gorgeous, smoky voice, has died. She was Sammy Davis Jr.’s love interest in Golden Boy. Part of the obit touched on this being the subject of controversy because of race. This was supposedly the first interracial kiss on a Broadway stage. Yet this was a plot point of Showboat decades before. I guess until Lonette McKee, black or multiracial women never played Julie. Lena never played the part, except in scenes in Till the Clouds Roll By.

I've usually only raced through a show like that when we've had a pick-up rehearsal and we just want to make sure that everyone still knows their lines.


I have never done it before on the first night of being off book.
