Well, you've read the notes, the notes had traffic, and now it is time for you to post until the trafficked cows come home.

I love The Boy Friend by Sandy Wilson.  I played Lord Brockhurst back in 1990...30 years ago!  I was all of 24 years old.  I'm finally old enough to effectively play the role. ;)

The producer and the director kept saying that no one would be upset if someone had to quit.  I could see the look on several faces that they wanted to speak up, but were afraid to be first.

I had hoped to be confined to home today, but I must return to a Spectrum store and exchange the new remote I got yesterday for another one.  The new one changes channels but neither the volume control nor on-off switch works.

Thanks MR BK, but I am not in rehearsals right now.....don't know when or IF I will be this year.....it just seems difficult.

I still don't know how DR TCB and his cohorts can be expected to continue.....

According to the guidelines here in Indiana - there are specific cleaning instructions.....NOTHING to be passed out (i.e. programs), and no sales of food items.....

And how do you follow the tracing guidelines if someone gets sick after attending a performance?

Well, the problem wasn't the remote.  It needed to be programmed.  A nice young lady at Spectrum just talked me through it and all is good.  We still have the insurance clearance to get through because it's currently impossible to get a live customer service rep on the 800 Emblem Health line.

The sun is entering Gemini today, so restlessness is to be expected.  We will have more plans than we are able to put into effect in the current circumstances.

Make up your mind about things - you can always change it later.  There's nothing wrong with being flexible.

We had just finished that when the Wells Fargo Wagon FedEx driver delivered our new KitchenAid mixer.  Look on Facebook for the picture of it on our kitchen counter.  It' looks like it was made for that space!

I've been listening to tracks since I got up - have not stopped.  We're just missing one gal for the bigger group number, but that's sounding really quite good now, and the same gal for the trio - hopefully we'll have her stuff in the next couple of hours.  Then Richard will get it all together around five and I think we'll try to mix this stuff tonight so it can go to Hartley for marrying audio to video.  In theory, it should all work perfectly.

DR Ginny your Kitchen Aid mixer looks very attractive on your counter.  I may of only used mine a few times after I broke my shoulder finding a newer hand mixer easier to work.  We had been talking about using it again to knead bread dough & then I sent Bryan my yeast.
Title: Re: THE RETURN OF TRAFFIC
Post by: Jane on May 20, 2020, 03:13:19 PM
Ginny does yours tilt back or raise straight up.  I missed the old tilt back style with my Kitchen Aid.

Speaking of bread.  This morning Bryan text me photos of a couple of beautiful loaves of bread he made with the expired yeast I sent him.  With the first packet he made an onion rye & a sesame semolina.

Is anyone using Instacart for deliveries?

Bruce did you see the article Linda Sternhill put up on FB?  Apparently Instacart, on top of their regular fees, increases the in store costs.


This is also about a few other delivery services.  https://www.mashed.com/196927/the-truth-about-grocery-delivery-services/

DR Jane, ours tilts and, if we'd figured out how to do that while we were unpacking it, we wouldn't have had to chop up the styrofoam to get to the bowl.
Title: Re: THE RETURN OF TRAFFIC
Post by: Jane on May 20, 2020, 05:34:00 PM
Mine might not because it was also for making bread.  Or after all these years people want the tilt style.  It is a tight fit to scrape the bowl when raising it straight up instead of tilting it back off of the bowl.

DR Ginny your mixer is much prettier than my boring white one :)

Well, mine's white too, but the pearlessence makes a huge difference.  I wanted blue, but it was too turquoise for our kitchen.  After I'd ordered the white pearl I saw sugar pearl, which is silver, and that would have looked nice here, too.

The work is finally done for the day - non-stop until twenty minutes ago, mostly spent on the mix, lining everything up, and then doing the final mix, which is hard over the phone.  But we'd get it close then I heard it on my speakers and finessed from there and then I approved the final mix on both songs - I think they came out really well, and now they'll hopefully synch up with the video.

After we each got our meals (Margo had gotten there and ordered before I did), we went to her house and sat on the porch and ate and chatted and enjoyed the afternoon.

I think that is a great way to socialize while keeping a proper distance.

At least a few times a week we see our friends while out walking and stop to visit.  We saw them this morning.

Yesterday while walking in one of the new neighborhoods we have discovered we stopped to talk to a gentleman we have said hello to in passing.  To our surprise is 91 years old.  He sure looks good.

The chicken sandwich is usually really good, but because I had to take the time to go from the restaurant to Margo's place (really less than five minutes away), the crispy onion straws were not as crunchy as they usually are. ::)

I remember those being very good as well as the Whiskey River BBQ sauce.

Sometimes we even see them in the building and chat but mostly we see them as we pass on the walking path.

Relaxing.  I'm actually exhausted from this day and I just had another frozen pizza thing.

Oh, that reminds me!  Margo coincidentally also got the Whisky River BBQ Chicken, and they were kinda skimpy with the BBQ sauce on BOTH of ours. :P

I suggested that if we get something like that again to get the sauce on the side.  That way, we'll know we got enough. ;)

Good idea or ask for extra on the side.  Then you might have leftover sauce for at home.

Ginny does yours tilt back or raise straight up.  I missed the old tilt back style with my Kitchen Aid.

DR Jane, ours tilts and, if we'd figured out how to do that while we were unpacking it, we wouldn't have had to chop up the styrofoam to get to the bowl.


Whew!  I had to slow down and read that again.

I don't like all BBQ sauces, but this one is pretty good.

I didn’t get an email today saying I was fired from MURDER, so I guess I wasn’t too awful at last night’s rehearsal.

It’s funny, I like chili on burgers and dogs, but not BBQ sauce of any kind.

Seattle has now cancelled all Seafair events this summer.  No parades, no fireworks, no hydroplanes, and no Blue Angels.

That's too bad.  You'd think that they'd be able to do something.
