Well, you've read the notes, the notes were easy and listened, and now it is time for you to post until the easy listening cows come home.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

So-so night of sleep. I remember no dreams, only a lot of leg pains and restlessness.

DR ChasSmith, yes, the North Carolina School of the Arts under the John Mauceri reign of terror prodced that wonderful Oklahoma! restoration. The production's Curly, Kyle Guglielmo, played one of the Collegians on my recording of Roberta. He's now married with children and living in Canada, I believe. We emailed a couple of months ago. He's one of the best.

The ballet meeting went well. Doug and I have to deliver our full score and orchestra parts to North Carolina by Dec. 1, 2026. My initial request was for 14 players: string quintet (5), woodwind quartet (4), trumpet, trombone, horn (3), harp, and percussion.

If the ballet performances - ours is one item on the program - are tied in with the school's orchestra concert, then we could increase the number of strings from five to 21 (6 Violin 1, 4 Violin 2, 4 Viola, 4 Celli, 3 Basses), giving us a total of 30 musicians.

Today, I must speak to the dreadful homecare folk and see if we can resolve this mess. I also want to cook Italian sausages with onions and pepper, and I need to look over the orchestra scores from my new student Ben for our session tomorrow.

Sort of  about the TOD:

Billy Joel said (to Bill Maher in this interview) that he wishes he could write just one song that he feels is as good as "Wichita Lineman"

Today, I must speak to the dreadful homecare folk and see if we can resolve this mess. I also want to cook Italian sausages with onions and pepper, and I need to look over the orchestra scores from my new student Ben for our session tomorrow.

Speaking of homecare, I was in the kitchen cleaning up the cats' breakfast dishes when my right knee gave out and I suddenly fell to my right. I ended up lying on top of a collapsing rolling cart holding the coffee supplies and wedged between the sink and the door that closes off my pullman kitchen. To My right arm was useless since it was wedged in the sink. While all this was going on, I was trying to find either some way to either stop the slide down or to clear space so I would not be injured if I fell into the small space between my walker and my cane that was hanging off the stove. I succeeded and landed on my knees on the floor. I then had to crawl to the living area where I could raise myself back up to a standing position. Then, I very shakily changed clothes since I was soaking wet.

Some days I really hate my existence.

While all this was going on, Annabelle kept screaming, and I was afraid she'd been injured in the mess. She wasn't, and I now think she was panicking because of my screams for help.

Apparently bronze-cut pasta (extruded through bronze die-cut plates) is superior because the pasta has a micro ragged edge that sauce clings to better.
