Well, you've read the notes, the notes were both high and mighty, and now it is time for you to post until the high and mighty cows come home.

Now playing - the first real piece of more modern music from Munch, in mono - the greatest performance of Honegger's Symphony No. 5. And in much better sound than a CD I already had of it - all the shrillness is gone and it sounds fantastic.

So, last month, I found and purchased on eBay the cassette release of The Secret Garden with Barbara Cook, Judy Kaye, John Cullum, George Rose and Max Showalter. Yesterday, I was finally able to give the cassette to my sister's boyfriend and he made WAV files of the cassette and just sent them to me! I'll listen to them at work today and see how good it all sounds, then tonight after work, I'll be able to break up the files into the individual songs...and I'll finally have the three songs that weren't released on the LP or CD!

And now, I'm off to bed.

Have a good day, all!

I think my foot injury is actually ankle tendonitis and it's killing me. Getting about is quite painful, and it's my own damned fault, which makes it more irritating.

I did sleep rather well. I had one peculiar dream which seemed to be partly TV soap opera and partly reality, although I cannot make sense now of any of it. I do remember that the head of the last foundation I worked for and for whom I recorded five albums was in it.

I cannot remember for the life of me if I'm seeing my visiting nurse or physical therapist today. There will be a food delivery at some point.

The Lysice has done wonders for Annabelle the past few days, I've heard no sneezing or wheezing, and she's so happy she's been chirping like a big fat gray bird. When she's content, she purrs but when she's really happy or thrilled, she chirps, so I'm a happy Daddy with a sore leg this morning.

I have no idea what's on today's agenda, so I'll tidy up and work on my orchestration until whatever fresh hell shows up. I do need to walk to the post box this morning and mail my ballot for the NY Primary.

Kitty cleanup is finished, I've tidied the bathroom, and made the bed. I think I will lie down with the cats for a bit, and then get to work.

Preparing these interviews is keeping me from SIMPLY.

We have another four scheduled for tomorrow and then another four or more on Friday.

I have to get the questions ready (send them to the victims, although my follow up questions are ad libbed) and transfer them to cards and collect photographs of everybody to tip in during interviews.....

I hope people like them.....and learn some new things.....even though I look like.....well....what I look like.

Jrand74 · « **Reply #22 on:** June 15, 2020, 05:43:37 AM »

For those doing these computer things...I.E. MR BK - do you wear makeup of any kind.

My face seems to be about four different colors of pink and red, but I don't want to end up looking like this.

My visiting physical therapist will be here shortly. I hope she can give me some exercises for this ankle.

DR Elmore, I'm so sorry you've joined the ankle tendonitis club! Hope the PT can help...

I think Milena did help me out today. She gave me four or five exercises.

This is good news! I see one of the dissenters is that pig Kavanaugh.

Any kind of tendonitis (or anything remotely similar) is bad enough, but I should think having it in the ankle has got to be the worst. Like, you know, we have to walk on those things!

Annabelle and Stella behaved pretty well while the therapist was here, and Thatch found a new hideaway in the closet. Annabelle is particularly frisky.
