The alarm rang at 5:00. I turned it off and cuddled with Annabelle. Then I decided to get up. I about passed out when I looked at the clock and it was 6:30! So, I am really behind schedule this morning. I will return later.

Wednesday afternoon greetings!  When I was last here on Sunday I was in the throes of prepping a veggie tray for Monday’s Current Events Club meeting.  Made the dill dip on Sunday and chopped all the veggies Monday morning before picking up my 94-year-old neighbor and her tray of brownies.  We helped hostess Barb set up the tea table, greet, the guests, and clean up a bit afterwards.  After seeing my neighbor to her home I came to mine and napped for a couple of hours.

I mostly watch them like a hawk. Today was only a half day. Junior high. It was really only two periods, but I had students who tried to break every rule in the book. One kid had his cellphone out, which is against state law. There were 5 or 6 curse words. Refusal to do the school work assigned. The usual. Oh, yeah, and a few belches.

Just finished The Wasp Trap, a thriller/mystery that could have been better, but still had some thrills.

The gay version of The Fantasticks that Tom Jones supposedly completed before his death is headed to Broadway. Matt and Lewis, instead of Luisa. And mothers instead of fathers.

I was wondering if (hoping that) something was going to happen with it.

Here’s a clip of John Cullum I hadn’t seen before from Shenandoah.

Very cool, and the choreography looks like it could've actually been danced in the time that the show is actually set...not gymnastics performed by much-too-muscular young men. ::)

For my money, Cullum has one of the finest voices in musical history.
