Monday's dress/tech rehearsal went pretty well. They got through Act 1 and about a third of Act 2. That's kind of par for the course for a show with a fair amount of moving parts.

Last night's? Well, it was like nothing was able to happen. Things were hardly moving at all, and they just barely got through the REST of Act 2. And tonight's the final dress. Their one *complete* run-through will commence when the clock strikes four. Pray for the baby.

Both last night and tonight's Into the Woods rehearsals went quite well.

Since our music director is still out, we mainly worked on the group numbers, and the little scenes that are only a page or two long.

Tonight, we choreographed the end of act one, then staged a whole bunch of the little scenes.

Hopefully, the music director will be well enough to return and work the music more thoroughly.

There are probably many more vibes due, so here's to health and wealth and giddy happiness vibes for everyone.

I just paid the big ugly quarterly property tax bill, so just imagine how giddy *I* am.

Ugg...I just paid my semi-annual property tax bill.  It keeps going up and up! :P

Not entirely sold on Jonathan Groff. He seems to want to upstage his backup dancers. I could probably enjoy a cast album.

And to compare, here's the real Bobby Darin performing live:

Damn! Damn! Damn! Second package with tracking number supposedly delivered to this address was not.

I called the 10024 Planetarium USPSD Station and to a completely apathetic woman qho clearly didn't give a damn when I told her I suspoected they had a dyslexic delivery person or a postal worker who was a thief. She told me to call the USPS 800 number.

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! :o

I love this song! I cannot wait for the cast album.

I don't usually get hit-fest concert cast albums, but I might get this one.  We'll see.

Survival vibes for DR CHAS SMITH and his fingers.

Fingers will be fine. It's my back that will be killing me...from sitting all those hours on a keyboard bench on a floor that's on a slight angle, just enough that I can feel the "pull".

ChasSmith, just get a level and some shims for your bench legs.  Easy-peasy! ;)

Haven’t done laundry in two weeks.

Wow.

That's not unusual for me. ::)

Every couple of months I order the 5-pound bag of walnuts from Costco.com (they only have the 3-pound bag with larger pieces in my Costco "warehouse").  I was set to order them again and noticed that the price went up from $16.99 in February to $27.49 today!

Oh, my goodness!  That's definitely a hike in price!

I did a search and the price of walnuts is likely to increase more.  The demand has gone up while the supply has dropped.

"The 2024-2025 walnut crop is 11% lower than the USDA forecast in September, partly due to record-high temperatures and La Niña weather patterns. This has created a shortage, driving prices up."

Darn!  I haven't made them in a while, but I LOVE walnuts in chocolate chip cookies. :D

My cold turned out to be a cold, which seemingly has not become a sinus infection.

Whew!
