Well, you've read the notes, the notes were neither afternoon nor morning notes, and now it is time for you to post until the afternoon and morning cows come home - the evening cows are seeing the tour of Les MOOz.

The thirty-one-year-old idiot who wrote Hunters is the WORST.  It's his first produced show.  And he thinks it's okay to set this story about Nazis in the US and hunters who find them as a drama/thriller, and then suddenly become Tarantino and make with the comedy bits that are rather like the idiot who directed the movie about Cheyney - Adam McKay.  Well, guess what - I think they call it jumping the shark and it happened in the first five minutes of episode two.  But you know this twit has not an original thought in his head so all he can do is imitate.  And the music - oh, dear Lord.  I'll be interested to see how much of this silliness I can take.

I dodged a bullet this morning.  Yesterday I booked another vet appointment for Annabelle, whose nose was clogged and who spent the entire morning trying to sneeze or to expel whatever was clogging her head.  She wouldn't eatas well.  I booked the appointment while thinking, how am I going to pay for this?

This morning, she's perfectly fine, romping with Stella and Thatch, and she ate her breakfast.  I will cancel the appointment.

I slept rather well, given my current parameters.  I was up at least four times, one of them to stand and stretch my aching leg muscles.  I also had no anxiety attacks, which makes me happy.

I had what you might call an "un"-Jerry Herman evening last night. I wanted to watch something I hadn't seen either at all, or in many years, and I chose the Warner Archive Blu-ray of Auntie Name which had been sitting in a watch pile probably since I got it.

It was glorious, and I was shocked to find that I must not have seen it since I was a kid or maybe just past college age. Certain things seemed familiar, but not "that" familiar, and the amazing thing is that I found myself expecting a song at all the obvious moments. But how beautifully it works as its own pre-Mame self. The look of the film is drop dead gorgeous, and there are some hilarious bits in it. I will NOT let decades go by before my next viewing of it.

Today I'm blowing off another Willy Wonka rehearsal in favor of enjoying the chance to get a few more things done at home. (These early orchestra rehearsals, which the kids desperately need, are strictly voluntary for me.)

But tonight I'm returning to the Bedford Playhouse for my first time in -- I hate to think it, but -- at least two months? Tonight's Tuesday classic is Psycho which I shall enjoy for my approximately one-millionth time. It'll be a nice evening. The guy who runs the classic series always has much to contribute, and it always includes wonderful tidbits I didn't know. He does his research. And as always, it will be rewarding to see Robert Harris if he's there.

Exactly, DR Jrand69. That entire scene is incredible.

The tossing of the drink? Classic. And it caught me so totally by surprise, that alone could have restored one's faith in movies.

Well I am late to the party.....very late.....   Yesterday there was a movie on TCM titled THAT MAN FROM RIO.  I guess I must have always gotten it confused with Our Man in Havana or whatever that's called.....which I couldn't get into.

ANYWAY.....I watched TMFR.....it is a glorious movie filmed on location in France and Brazil.  Funny and exciting.....and even though I liked Jean Paul Belmondo a lot in BREATHLESS, here he is photographed in color and is very handsome.

His heroine is the lovely Francoise Dorleac.....

Some of the scenes were shot in the newly built Brasilia.....anyway...I loved it and I hope it's ON DEMAND so I can watch it again....

Highly recommended by the likes of me.

I am not normally accident prone but yesterday I was vacuuming. I was using the extension to vacuum the stairs. Just as i was going to reach up to hold the vaccum to make sure that it didn't fall it fell right on my shoulder and whacked me super hard. :(

OMG it hurt. The long handle hit me. I iced it. Took a hot shower. It's not great. But it's much better than I would have thought. It mostly just doesn't feel great to sleep.

I'm trying out a new tax accountant. I met with him for the first time yesterday. He's a retired high school math teacher who's been doing taxes for a while now. He's good at explaining things and doesn't mind doing so. So different from the accountant I had who begrudged me any explanation! He's also close by and not overly busy. I'm pleased so far.

My previous guy was really horrible about returning phone calls and emails. Just really rude in many ways. He was on Ocean Ave and Wilshire in Santa Monica, on the 18th floor, with a fabulous view of the ocean. I couldn't help thinking that his high rent was being passed on to all his clients. Ugh!

Maybe if you buy enough from Lowe's they'll give you the Keurig free. (Do they sell Keurigs?)

Now I'm watching the rest of episode two of Hunters- truly one of the worst pieces of crap I've ever seen and how Amazon could have green lit this crap is anyone's guess.  Filled with anachronisms, puerile dialogue, and the obligatory vomit and lesbianism.

I am pleased you found a new tax accountant you prefer. 

My previous guy was really horrible about returning phone calls and emails. Just really rude in many ways. He was on Ocean Ave and Wilshire in Santa Monica, on the 18th floor, with a fabulous view of the ocean. I couldn't help thinking that his high rent was being passed on to all his clients. Ugh! Good riddance!

I do my own taxes. :)

It has three color modes:  a warm light setting, warm–white light setting and a white light setting.
Title: Re: THE AFTERNOON REHEARSAL THAT WAS A MORNING REHEARSAL

It also has 10 brightness dimming levels.

There were other lamps that had these features but I chose this one based on the price, the ratings, and the shape.

I hope that either the warm light setting or warm–white light setting replicates the look of an incandescent bulb.

I've gotten CFL and LED bulbs that are just too bright and don't have any warmth to their colors.

One of the reasons I didn't log on for so long tonight was that I just happened to turn on my TV and I saw that on PBS was an episode of AMERICAN MASTERS.

They featured a fascinating documentary on Miles Davis, the jazz trumpet player.

My dad loves Miles Davis, so I set my DVR to record it so that I could make DVD of it for him.

But instead of just setting up the DVR and leaving, I just stated to watch it and really got into it.

A Question for BK (because it's officially Wednesday):  will this book have all of your lyrics?
Title: Re: THE AFTERNOON REHEARSAL THAT WAS A MORNING REHEARSAL
Post by: George on February 26, 2020, 01:08:24 AM
I think I remember you saying that it won't, but (to me) the subtitle "A Lifetime of Lyrics" implies that all of the lyrics that you've written during your lifetime will be included.

Hold onto your hats, gang, Hurricane jan is back in town.  Utah was beautiful, sunny days but  from low 50's to low 60's. Hit museums and art galleries.  We even toured Brigham Young's winter house in St. George.

Nope, not even close.  Even on the shows, only a few have every lyric - if something was short or inconsequential or if I didn't feel it would read well, I didn't use it.  And there are a huge number of songs that aren't included.  Nothing from Outside the Box because I didn't want too much parody and I have a few What Ifs.  I waffled on a few things, but in the end just went with what felt right and at 530-something pages, it's plenty :)
