Well, you've read the notes, the notes had close encounters, and now it is time for you to post until the close encounters of the cows come home.

I spent most of yesterday feeling quite puny and sickly, so I went to bed around 8:30 and this morning I am feeling rather good.

Before he arrives at 10:00, I must take the recyclables to the basement, finish kitty cleanup, make the bed, and write him a check for last week's labor.

Had a weird dream that involved coconut-potato ice cream. Don’t remember any other details.

Another involved Google searches and SEO, or search engine optimization. None of our uses were good. Must have been a work dream.

I received a text from my [probably ex] friend Debby wondering what she did wrong and why she was not cast as The Narrator.

I told her why - for the most part. 

I am now a Dream Crusher, it was the LAST PART she ever wanted to play, and she will never audition for another show.

And that's my Monday so far.

Had a classic former-workplace dream. This one, however, also embraced additional territories such as music and housecleaning and former cast members. I think I still remember quite a bit of it, but the funny thing having to do with music is that while sitting at my desk at work, I found myself playing the piano part in something, and this one song required only counting the rests and hitting a B-flat major chord on the button. The gal sitting next to me was finding that more amusing every time we did it, so I showed her my score and how many notations I'd made all over that page just for playing one chord. As I did so, I was embarrassed to find that most of the notations didn't pertain to the music at all, but were little reminders of things to do at work or elsewhere. Actually, the rest of the dream was no better, embarrassment-wise. Oy!

And organizational vibes for DR Elmore!

I need to do SO MUCH of that kind of thing myself. I'm taking DR Elmore's activity as inspiration and motivation.

DR CHAS SMITH the Dream-O-Matic 6000 says that your dream indicates that - like DR ELMORE - while you sometimes think of your music work as play.....it sometimes becomes work.

You also consider playing the piano a communication activity that can help draw folks to you and initiate conversations....

But there are also just so many hours in the day and your two activities encroach on each other in unexpected and sometimes annoying ways.

The B-flat major chord on the button is a tribute to Ethel Merman....and you would like to play in the pit for GYPSY....which may happen soon.

Hey, JRand, how about a chorus of Dream Crusher to the tune of Dream Weaver?

Imagine, the narrator in Joseph being anyone’s dream role. Wow. How sad is that?
