Rodzinski, have any children been invited over that couldn't go because they didn't have a passport?

Rodzinski, you have four 2s in your posing total!  That's a millstone to preserve!

Fun :)

For Joan Collins' birthday, recalling a somewhat suggestive 2013 story about Joan Collins and what had been in Shirley Jones' memoir.

I had thought about going out for my second Shingrix shot today, but I'm too wiped out to get something that could also wipe me out, so maybe tomorrow. Yes, actually, tomorrow sounds like just the ticket. If they give shots on Saturday. I get mine at Walgreens and will check on that.

Good idea to wait until you are feeling better and more energetic.

Yes. Or sometimes they don’t have it handy. If I bring kids over, their parents need to provide me their passports or Nexus IDs in advance.

One of my son’s friends lives with their backyard right on the border. We haven’t done this, but the kids could look at each other across the border but not cross over to play.

I took an easy walk this morning with my binoculars. So I'd go slow.

Oh she’s quite clear on that. And I have her old LPs where her nurses training buddies have scrawled innuendo in pen on Johnny’s photos.

Last night was back to movie class after taking last week off for a concert. We saw Straight Time from 1978 starring Dustin Hoffman. The score is by David Shire though I can't recall much of it outside of the opening and closing credits.

I hope that last comment refers to the score and not the movie.

Ha ha - yes indeed. I have no problem recalling the movie!

Ushering for the Philharmonic tonight. They’re doing Mahler’s second symphony. Should be fun.

Fun, you say? Hell, the Second is one laugh after another!  :D

I enjoy it. When they were still the San Antonio Symphony, I heard them play it twice. They local Meistersingers group also do well with the piece.

I was to play the organ in that once, but the huge rented Allen (very pipe organ-like) refused to power up at the time of the performance. Some kind of total power supply failure in the instrument itself. But playing it was a magnificent feeling - and sound! - at the previous day's rehearsal.

And now tonight is opening night for Otello. This is such a fun chorus part to sing, and our principals are wonderful.

That's too bad that you didn't get to play the performance,  ChasSmith.

A week from tonight I'll be seeing another Diana Canova-directed production of Moon Over Buffalo. She did that a year or so ago at a very very tiny theeder. This one has cabaret seating, which usually guarantees a happy audience. I've done a couple of things there. Her leading lady (do people still say leading lady?) is the same one as before, and that's a very good thing, and the rest of this cast looks to be most excellent.

I would have missed the video if you hadn't mentioned it.  If the play on its own did not make a strong statement, cancelling the performance should do it.  I hope so.
