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

Just trouble sleeping

Well, my Physician in Spite of Himself rehearsal went well last night. Except...I got there at the call time of 7:00 pm, but since two actors with larger roles than mine weren't there (scheduled conflicts), we worked several random scenes rather than the whole show. Which meant that we didn't get to the one scene that I'm in until 9:45 pm...15 minutes before the end of the rehearsal. Oh, well. It was a fun evening, otherwise.

Also, I stayed after and helped pug (our director) put slides into the sound/projector program for tomorrow and Saturday's WORDS, WORDS, WORDS: Hans Christian Andersen readings. I'm reading "The Goblin and the Grocer" and "The Princess on the Pea." We had no rehearsal or even a read-through for that, at all. We're all just going to be winging it! It'll be fun, though.

BK - that Stokowski is also sold, unless you had more than one copy.

I slept very poorly. My body ached from Gurjeet's pummeling yesterday. Finally, around 5:00, I dragged out the heating pad for my knee and lower thigh. It was a great success.

elmore3003 · « **Reply #15 on:** November 18, 2016, 04:31:24 AM »

I have to go to City Center this morning, so we'll see how that goes with my current round of pains.

ChasSmith · « **Reply #16 on:** November 18, 2016, 05:30:36 AM »

My lower back pain started easing up yesterday evening, and for the most part I slept okay --

EXCEPT for the ABSURD dream in which I was trying to look at and rent or buy this apartment, or maybe it was a little house, in Miami Beach, involving the help of some cops, a lot of driving around the area in circles, and later stuff that makes even less sense than what I've posted so far. I shall stop right here and begin the exorcism process.

TOD:

I was sent a review copy of HANDS OF STONE, a boxing film with Robert DeNiro. Will probably watch this weekend.

Here's my therapist Gurjeet and his staff last Christmas. From the left, Lisa. Gurjeet (standing), Dipika (kneeling), Jen, Bart, Morgan (who got me walking again in 2013-2014), and Denisse. Morgan's husband is an attorney and they have moved to Texas. I miss her.
