On the positive side, when I finished up the litter and went for my second cup of coffee, I found Annabelle lying on the kitchen rug with Stella curled up on top of her.

Well two leisure suits have been purchased for my own self.....they are "costumes" so they are not real clothes - but I think they will suffice for my time onstage.....

I am wondering why someone would want to spend all that money to present it in a 75 seat theater. Is it an equity union equation that is done in a theater that small?

Finished yesterday a major rewrite on the Allan Carr project. Following the director's suggestion, I dropped a conceit that would have some of the audience members sitting on the stage and becoming part of the play. I also changed the silent character of Allan's assistant to a hustler since Allan had a proclivity for hiring them. I think it has made the story better

It is also been interesting that the producer is hearing from people who have worked or knew Allan and what to share their stories about him. Some of them are very interesting but they won't make it into the play.

Did a quick look around these parts, and now I'm back to the real world. 

Until later...

You're welcome, John.  I'm going to watch it today while I'm working.  I now have two screens and can use one pretty much as a TV and still get work done. ;)

I am home. 

First, the good news:
The jerk 'landlord tried to stick me with a $123 "dispossessed charge" - whatever that is - and I refused to sign anything until it was removed from my account.  The bitch attorney sent a flunkey so I missed a chance to say thank you and fuck you to her, much as I wanted to.

I went to the 92nd Y rehearsal, and I think the show will be good, if anyone's interested in coming.  Ana Gasteyer made me cry singing "I Don't Want To Live On the Moon" from Sesame Street.

And the bad news:
When I got home, in today's mail I got aNotice of Case Status from the Civil Court, which puzzles me.  I scheduled this hearing a week ago.  When was this postcard from the Housing Court mailed?  I can see no postmark, but this case should have been in the computer sincew 11:00am last Thursday morning.  So, is this more aggravation from my shitty landlord?

DR elmore, to confirm.....  The charge was removed and you won your case, no eviction according to the court?

As far as I know, I've won the case and the charge was removed.  I called the housing court and a very nice clerk told me the case was in the computer but the verdict had not yet been added to the computer.  I think it's over, but I'm still convinced my landlord and his bitch attorney Elizabeth L:entini are harassing me.

Everything’s probably fine, but what an aggravating hassle. Just get good confirmation of that verdict.

Is your landlord an individual or small business, or a large one with many buildings? Either, of course, can be good or bad.
