Well, you've read the notes, the notes had no answers to the orange chicken dilemma, and now it is time for you to post until the orang cows come home.

And the word of the day is: SUBSTANTIVE!

Found an hour-long documentary about The Fantasticks from when it closed in 2002 or 2003.

Great interviews with Tom Jones and Harvey Schmidt, Rita Gardner, Jerry Orbach.

To me, it was special seeing George Lee Andrews, who was the first El Gallo I ever saw.

I could not get to sleep last night. Instead of lying there in frustration, I read until my eyes ciykd no longer focus. I then spent the night, dozing and sleeping poorly next to Thatch who tolerated my restlessness with more grace than I would exhibit. By the time Annabelle joined us around 4:00, my legs were aching and I could not get comfortable. After kitty cleanup, I have a long nap.

I plan on an easy day. My only major errand is to scrounge around the closet in search of a carton of miscellaneous large envelopes where I hope to find one large enough to send one of the A&T galleys to Modern Cat magazine in Vancouver.

It's time to give my wrist a rest. Nice haircut, DR George!

Notes deconstructed. Parsed.

Nice haircut DR GEORGE.

I have to visit Great Clips in the near future myself.

Congrats to MR BK on all the writing - and finding the MW book! I hope some DR can buy it!

Pizza was good last night....company was good.....and then The Pacers lost the basketball game....they missed at least four three throws in the final minute or so....that would have won them the game.

Good morning, friends.

I don't know about these things, but it seems like the whole process was really quick.

singdaw · « **Reply #20 on:** June 14, 2025, 06:23:51 AM »

From inception to submission.

Got to sleep in a little later than usual on this gray and sorta-rainy Saturday morning. Even the cat slept in, and didn't arise until he sensed that I had arisen. He is now fed, and I've had one slice of toast and one cup of coffee. I shall need much more, though. I think it's a morning for some damned eggs. Some damned Trader Joe's $1.99 per dozen eggs, to be specific.

And yet another gray day here. It was raining earlier.

We are going to be changing our call center software in the coming months to Amazon Connect. Should be interesting.

singdaw · « **Reply #25 on:** June 14, 2025, 06:32:43 AM »

It will involve moving away from physical phone consoles to soft phones and soft tokens, whatever that may man.

Is Amazon not out of favor any more? (due to politics, that is)

I had great experiences with Amazon for the books I self-published throughout the 2010s, but I've felt unsure about whether it's "OK" to use Amazon for my new book.

My extra sleep was not restful, unfortunately, being rife with stupid irritating dreams.

The big one concerned music and was clearly based on the Evita programming tweaking and altering I was doing yesterday. It took completely different forms in the dream, of course, I guess you could say surreal ones, and was repetitious and profoundly annoying. I can sort of remember it but I shan't attempt to put it into words.

I'll finish that work today, and will be supremely glad that this step in the preparation is over. It's just the finessing - one might even say futzing - of little things I'd never annoy the programmers with, but which I nevertheless can't leave the way they are. When done, I'll play the show with much greater ease and enjoyment, and it'll be better for it.

TOD

Three, because I'm picky:

+1.25 for playing music and being able to read every detail sharply, while not being strong enough to throw distant stuff out of whack, such as watching a conductor or soloist who needn't be in sharp focus.

+2.00 for desktop computer distance and anything else on my desk that needs to be read.

+2.50 for sitting in a chair and reading a book or the iPad or even small print on the phone.

It's definitely annoying to keep track of three, but in a pinch, any of them can be grabbed and used for whatever the momentary need is.

610 Guests on a Saturday morning, even with the thousands of bots a thing of the past - so these must be 610 real people viewing HHW, right?
