I filled up another green barrel with branches and twigs of all sizes. I was too tired to drag it up front, plus I have about two or three inches of space on top, so I can fill it with some weeds tomorrow or something.

A co-worker just forwarded a link to this article:  A Cult-Classic Sondheim Flop Gets An Essential New Recording.

Just thought I'd share, since it's Sondheim's birthday. :)

I also started listening to Nick, the prequel to The Great Gatsby. The first quarter is a little too depressing. He's in the war, he's in Paris, he meets a girl. She aborts his baby. He goes back to the war. But it's cheerier than the Thomas Hardy.

What an ordeal, DR elmore3003.  Glad it is over.  Thank goodness you had Jason there to help you.

That would be cool.  I check eBay every once in a while, and I've never seen them listed...yet.  There's always hope, but I have no idea how much they'd cost.

I'm off, too.  Time to leave work and head out.

Until later.

It was in a nice, old neighborhood. Two Uber drivers recommended it to me as did the Uber drive who drove me there.

So, as always on the B'way Facebook groups, some ninny started a thread about how "dated" The King and I is and how offensive it is, and that Yul Brynner should be cancelled for doing it and the stupidity on view is breathtaking. Many of us tried logically to explain the obvious but that just makes these PC woke morons double down and they ALL revert to calling you a racist. That's always the default when you argue with these cretins. But I take them on because someone needs to (others take them on to) and then when I feel I've made them look inane enough and there's no more to say, I block their sorry ASSES. I just got a lovely PM from Charles Busch who told me thanks for taking them on and doing it so well and that he adores me. I adore him, too, of course, and have ever since a memorable dinner in the late 1990s attended by Julie Wilson, Charles, Jason Graae, Judy Blazer, and a few others. That was a night to remember.

Just finished Dances at a Gathering, which really is wonderful. I'd love to see it with the people for whom it was choreographed, but this company does very well with it. And now, on to The Cellist.

John G and others may be interested to know that THE BROKENWOOD MYSTERIES S7 starts next week. I was just wondering about it yesterday. It's on Acorn TV and possibly Amazon Prime video.

We will definitely keep it in mind, if not this trip next.  Of course we will need to Uber at times, however, we prefer to avoid it right now.

Good for you!  And a dinner with you and Julie Wilson, Charles Busch, Jason Graae AND Judy Blazer??  I can only imagine the dirt that was dished! ;D

Iowa lost and so my watching schedule for the next 10 days just opened up!

No need to follow the NCAA again this year.
