Pauline Collins has died. I will have to watch some of my favorite Wodehouse Playhouse episodes.

It was exhausting at food pantry today. We had many newcomers. And the line of cars stretched down the block. We had a different check-in process because of handing out turkeys.

In a way it felt like elections again.

Oh my.

Just had one of our ensemble ladies quit. Amusingly, she'd already quit the show that opens next at Group Rep. She said we told her it was "light dancing" but that it's anything but light. Well, please, it could not be lighter - I'm a stager - it's movement - it's walking in rhythm on beats, it's gestures - the only thing we've done so far that you could actually call a dance step is the Charleston. The fact of the matter is the writing was on the wall and I'd already discussed having to lose her because she could not do anything that resembled movement - nothing. She kept telling me she'd "get" it but I sensed not, although I was being very patient.

So, we need a replacement gal now and hopefully we can find one.

Vibes you quickly find a replacement.

She was fabulous in the one-person play on Broadway and in the movie version of SHIRLEY VALENTINE.

Hope the replacement search is an easy one.

When is a cast finalized anymore? People seem comfortable quitting at any time.

Well, I think I have finally reached Jen's limit. I got a check in the mail from New York State as an "Inflation Refund," and I asked Jen if she would deposit it for me when she walked Oscar. When she came by to pick it up, she said, I think it's time you looked into e-Deposit. Since I maybe get 4 checks a year,I think she's getting tired of helping me out.

I think she's trying to help you. E-deposits are faster and more reliable. They're easy to set up, and they'll give you more independence. Also, more and more government agencies are requiring it, for money going in either direction. So it seems best to have it all set up before you have to.

DR George, are you avoiding medications?

No, I just forgot to take them before I went to my mom's house.  Dopey me!

TOD: Costco has some chocolate chocolate-chip muffins that we succumbed to buying in a moment of weakness the other night. I did not expect them to be so very good.

Agreed!  They also have (had?) a streusel-topped muffin that's really good, too!

I want cameras rolling for the moment Hugh Jackman says, “Wow! Where did you get this song from?”

Totally! :D
