That was a pretty cool interview with Lin Manuel and Jimmy Fallon. :)

I do have HBO Max, so I'll definitely watch it more than once.

I just ordered the soundtrack.  It'll be released on Friday, so I probably won't get it until Monday.

I had lots of dreams I do not remember now, but I slept well until 4:00 when Stella became a pest. She wasn't begging for food, which is new, but she couldn't decide if she wanted to lie down and sleep with me or jump up and chase Thatch about. Her constant comings and goings were really irritating.

Last night we watched The Hidden Heart,  documentary about Benjamin Britten and Peter Pears. I enjoyed the talking heads of Britten's associates, but the video clips from performances of Peter Grimes, War Requiem, and Death in Venice were not of Pears but later performces with other singers. I was most disappointed.

My friend Charlie Harmon, who worked for Bernstein, told me the basics of this story years ago, but this is definitive!

Wednesday morning greetings!  Fr. Richard is "attending" a national clergy meeting via Zoom today, tomorrow, and half of Friday.  I'm keeping him fed and working on a huge scrapbooking project.

I know you've all been waiting for an update on our li'l heat wave. And I shall not disappoint.

Today's the last whole day of it. Tomorrow the high should only reach the mid-80s, with a cooling off tomorrow evening. Then for the next ten days or so, we're going to be in very comfortable temperatures.

Thanks, DR Jane!  And the best gift is that I just verified that I have, indeed, been excused from jury duty next week and the next.  That means I can exhale and we can proceed with our plans to be there for the big celebration over Father's Day weekend.  Color me relieved.

That has to be one of the best stories ever. Thank you. Reading it and watching the accompanying video quite literally improved my morning.
