And now, I'm off to bed to dream about the tacos and burritos that I shall consume, and the Phase 10 playing that will happen at my parents' today.

Have a good day, all!

I was in bed by 8:30, I was so tired.  I was then awake at 10:30, 12:30, 2:30. and 5:30! At 2:30 I took Tizanidine to get back to sleep.  I only remember bits of my last dream:  a bowl of fruit, new office in old building, ghosts, friends from various times of my life.

There are many little programs I use that I like:

Audacity for playing with audio files.
ACDSee Photo editing
Pocosmos to make slides
Clip Grab to get the audio from YouTube videos

They each have their bad points, but then so I do I,.

In the last 48 hours, I approved the audio editions of both ROY SCHEIDER AND THE BIGGER BOAT and GARY COOPER AT HIGH NOON.

Now, with MISS AUDREY HEPBURN and JASON ROBARDS AT THE OLD PLACE, I have 4 audios in the quality control check que at ACX.  With the pandemic, it's taking ACX close to 2 months to even check these audios, and if they find a problem, after you correct it, you go back to the end of the line

 :( :(

Three more audios in production.

Just watched an odd documentary on Jessie Matthews on the Tube of You. She had a very sad life, and very little was used in the documentary. But they had the most remarkable footage of her singing You'll Never Know in a hospital where she was being treated for cancer shortly before her death. I don't think she was a person who really knew how to live outside of the limelight.

At the end, however, we were supposed to usher people out row by row so that they didn't bottleneck anywhere. There was supposed to have been an announcement to that effect. But of course, there wasn't.

In the beginning, it was a little chaotic, but when people got the idea, they behaved without question.

Back in the before time people would have spoken up if they were disturbed by another’s behavior but these days no one wants to get into a shouting or pushing match

I see one person not using a mask, so I won’t wear one.  So, then someone new sees two people not wearing masks.

After everyone in the line stopped talking and stared at him at once, including the staff he finally got it and somewhat shamefacedly went back to stand on his mark in the floor

Have a good day, all!

Well, the tacos were very good and I won the first game of Phase 10! :D

They have always had the store set up in a one way system...instead of the traditional aisles it’s like a meandering path from the front door to the cashiers

And that's a wrap on Day One.

Five interviews done - 12:15 to 2:45.

Unfortunately because of a technical glitch, we will have to redo the first two.

Oh well.....it's a learning experience for all of us.

That's too bad about the glitch, but good luck with the do-overs!

What is your favorite chamber music piece?

The chamber opera, The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Mistook_His_Wife_for_a_Hat_(opera)), by Michael Nyman and  Christopher Rawlence, based on the Oliver Sacks book.

The live stream of the concert is online.

But go about 30 minutes or so into the file to start hearing the music.
