To continue my parking story from last night...I told David about having to pay for parking even with the parking ticket, and he said to send him the info and he'll look into it.  Hopefully, I can get a refund.

They just dimmed the lights, but here's where we're sitting:

Enjoy the Frozen.

Thanks, Jane!  I did! ;D

About 4:00 this morning Annabelle crawled into bed for warmth and slept in the curve of my knees.  I got very nostalgic for the first months of 2017 when she slept every night with me.  That little kitten had the ability to take up 90% of the bed.  Once Thatch and she became friends and she was acting as his surrogate mother, she left me to sleep with him.

I had several strange dreams last night but I only remember bits of the last, something about being on a large boat with a crew of college students, including Craig Shoemaker, a really good friend from the Miami University Theatre Dept.  Craig and his wife came to visit in 2014 and spent a week in Manhattan seeing shows and things.  At the time he had had two knee replacements and was quite proud of his be agility.  I keep meaning to get to Dallas to visit them.

Kitty cleanup is finished.  My wonderful neighbor Ann, who had the brunch last Sunday, carried up the 40 lbs of kitty litter last night and it was waiting outside my door this morning.  I am very grateful for that.  She and her partner Jen were scheduled to go to Italy for vacation the last weeks of March and now they're not sure what to do.

It was how it was done when I first began using overdrive. Then I had the option to either automatically borrow the books or receive a reminder and immediately requested they automatically borrow.

I do my best to delay books at home and while I am traveling if I have too many to read.  Too often while I think I have delayed the book it comes in sooner than I expected.  Yes, I will try to delay books for a longer time period if I am traveling.

The interior of the book is finished, photos look great and it's finalized, although I'll give it a quick once-over when I get home this evening.

I definitely overdid dinner tonight.  We went to Beaches and Keith said he was going to order the salmon burger, which means bread, fries, and coleslaw.  I couldn't resist and ordered it with coleslaw INSTEAD of fries.  Keith changed my order to a few fries and then ordered the lower calorie salad for his dinner.  Of course mine came with a full order of fries along with the extra coleslaw.  Keith didn't help me at all with the coleslaw and ate very few fries.  >:( ;D

The bartender, who was not actually bartending when we ordered our drinks, made Keith's Manhattan for him and gave me a very generous serving of Glenlevit.  She delivered our drinks & chatted a bit.  We had no clue, however, she was very exciting to share the number of days she has gone without alcohol.  She has been attending AA and, understandably, very proud of herself.

Some moron on Facebook posts a headline that reads: Disneyland closing because of Coronavirus.  Feeding hysteria, is the idea, of course, since the headline doesn't mention that it's TOKYO Disneyland not here, and this asscrack shared it to make people think it was here.  I called him out on it and I'm about to have one less Facebook friend.  I really cannot stand the stupidity about this thing, it's beyond belief.  Someone else I know actually posted that they'd stocked up on food and dry goods and supplies.  Why?  What the HELL is wrong with everyone?  It's a virus, the flu.  You get the flu, most get better as most have with this thing.  You get the flu and if you're elderly with a failing immune system you die.  And that is what the majority of deaths are attributed to.  No one wants to know facts, they just believe whatever crap comes across their feed.  I'm truly beginning to think that we are at the end of a normal society.

Stocking up on supplies, including food, is a good idea virus or not.  I am not as good about it here as I have been in the past.  That means canned & boxed food, not fresh food. 

This person should not have explained it was the Tokyo Disneyland from the beginning.  I find it difficult anyone following the news would have believed it was in the States.

Back from our show.  So good to have our leading lady back and I must say she was at her best, which is considerable.  Peyton was a bit weird in act one, but she did a great act two.  Sound levels were completely off and way too low, so in addition to corrupting our lighting file (thankfully fixed before tonight) someone also clearly screwed with the sound board.  I'm hopping mad about it and trying to rile Doug up to take a much tougher stance because clearly his strongly-worded e-mail about all this had no effect whatsoever.  I can't babysit the show, the stage manager can't hear the sound levels properly from the booth, and Doug may or may not know something is amiss, although he knew the sound was way low.  I had the SM raise the volume for act two, so that was better, but the sound designer, for the second time, now has to come in and see what they messed up and put it back the way it was.

At the mail place, this absolute moron was sending 100 surgical masks to friends in NY and bragging about how he cleaned out all the stores near him.  I mean, those mask are not going to protect anyone and the hysteria that Facebook is drumming up, fueled by the media, is causing a lot of unnecessary panic and causing people like this guy to behave like idiots.

I saw Dionne at Harrah’s in Reno back in 1972 or 73.  She was wonderful, but I was really shocked about all of her joking about her marijuana smoking.  It wasn’t talked about much back then, unless you were Chechen & Chong.
