I felt guilty the old library automatically checked out a book to me for 21 days when it has a long waiting list. I called so the book could be returned, instead my card was renewed

Very strange, Jane.

Oh, look! it's Page Four!

George · « **Reply #92 on:** November 27, 2018, 06:35:25 PM »

And on that note (C-natural), I'm off to rehearsal. Tonight is supposed to be all music, so I'm sure we'll get through anything that we haven't gotten through, yet...hopefully.

Be back later.

Strange they renewed our cards or strange OverDrive is still checking out the books?

Jane · « **Reply #94 on:** November 27, 2018, 06:43:34 PM »

It was nice of person to renew our cards. As for OverDrive I suspect there is a time frame from when the card expires and notification is sent to OverDrive. Of course you probably have better knowledge of this than my simply guessing.

I ushered for the non-Equity bus-and-truck tour of Rock of Ages. What a lousy show and very haphazardly performed. The leads could sing and they looked pretty, but they couldn't act. There was no chemistry. And most of the jokes fell flat.

"I'm not gay, I'm German."

Yawn.

The audience sat largely on their hands, but they left the theater happy. I don't know why. Maybe because it was over.

John G. · « **Reply #97 on:** November 27, 2018, 09:21:58 PM »

I should be off to bed.

I have to go to the dentist in the morning.

Doesn't that line usually get a huge laugh because it's so goofy?

As my dentist's long-ago hygienist would say, "You know the drill."

We watched EIGHT MEN OUT. It is such a sad story.

Back from a really funny performance of the musical revue. Huge laughs throughout and a standing ovation. Some bad lyric flubs in one song, but that happens. But the club was a disaster, just as I knew it would be. Amateurs. Head mics going out, dark lighting for things that should have been bright (I said this to the lighting guy when he'd written the show - he just looked at me and didn't give a crap), and their head mics are the cheapest imaginable and make everything sound bass heavy and makes the lyrics hard to understand. And whatever system is used to communicate orders to the kitchen wasn't working properly. Not going back there.

I should have stopped reading after the first two sentences! Well, anyway, congrats on the show going well despite the other stuff!

Good evening.

TCB · « **Reply #107 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:15:00 PM »

BK, sorry to hear the venue was crap. It sounds like they certainly deserved better.

TCB · « **Reply #108 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:16:56 PM »

Crazy weather today.

I went to the store and got caught in a deluge.

TCB · « **Reply #110 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:19:02 PM »

The rain was so heavy that I didn’t dare try to get out of the car at home.

TCB · « **Reply #111 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:19:35 PM »

So, I thought I would go for a drive.

TCB · « **Reply #112 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:20:02 PM »

Not a great idea.

TCB · « **Reply #113 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:20:38 PM »

I came upon a road that wa totally flooded.

TCB · « **Reply #114 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:21:17 PM »

I turned a corner to try and go around the flooding.

TCB · « **Reply #115 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:22:11 PM »

Naturally, I came across another flooded street.

TCB · « **Reply #116 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:22:49 PM »

Every time I turned a corner, I ran into another flood.

TCB · « **Reply #117 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:23:35 PM »

Finally, the dark clouds parted.

TCB · « **Reply #118 on:** November 27, 2018, 11:23:57 PM »

And the rain stopped.
