Good morning, all!  I slept well, except for a very peculiar paranormal experience somewhere in the middle of the night: I awoke and became aware of rustling, shuffling sounds of some sort, and the apartment seemed filled with people, as if I were in the middle of a crowd at a very quiet party. It rattled me, because my first reaction was, I'm dying and my family's come for me; the same things happened in the days before my mother's and father's deaths. My dad reported that the room was filled with angels, and my mother was talking to her dead family members. So, after determining I wasn't dying, I rolled over and went back to sleep.

How frightening. Glad you were able to go back to sleep.

Hugh Jackman coming back to Broadway in a Jez Butterworth play "THE RIVER" next year. Will premium prices finally go over $500?

To celebrate:  I updated "I Raid My Keogh" to tune of "I Go To Rio" (sung by Jan Horvath)

Very clever. I love the "I raid my Keogh" concept.

The first time I went into a Dean & Deluca store I thought I'd have to take out a second mortgage in order to afford to buy dinner.

Oh my dear Kevin. I am afraid that the language did not go over the children's heads. In fact, I'm pretty sure they could have explained anything you didn't understand.

The children may be able to, but I'm not sure I would!

I'm glad you were reimbursed for the locksmith, Sing. How annoying!

Something has given me a rash. I put some soothing gel on it, but the gel caused my jeans to stick to my skin. Rather funny, I thought. I rinsed off the "soothing" gel and emailed my doctor. I expect it to pass in a few days, but I thought I should update her, anyway.

I called the rental place. It was 10 minutes before their closing time. The representative put me on hold until after they had closed, and then left the office.


I had to call a mobile locksmith myself to extricate myself from that situation. The next day, I gave the rental company a piece of my mind.
They ultimately reimbursed me for the locksmith, at least, which they didn't have to do.

Nice of them to acknowledge the rep forgot about you.

Last night we watched a Vaseline lotion commercial.  The women sprayed, or something, strips of the lotion down her legs and arms then quickly slipped into her snug clothes.  The ad then said it was fast absorbing.  Watching the commercial it looked to us like she was greasing her body to make it easier to slide the clothes on.

Now I get it, the point was to show her clothes wouldn't stick to her ;)

Vibes the rash is gone by tomorrow.

Maybe this will finally get DR MBarnum interested in classical music!       :)

Well, I finally saw The Book of Mormon.  I'm glad I saw it and I'm also glad I didn't pay full price.  It's very funny but unbelievably crude, as I had heard.  The actors, especially the two leads, were great.  It's not a show I'd want to see again.

Hey, Kevin, glad to hear you finally got to see the show. I'm think I'm with you on this one. I saw it through the lottery just after it opened in 2011. While I think it's very funny and was extremely well done I don't need to see it again and I don't think of it in the pantheon of "great musicals"

Ditto from me! I'm amazed it's done as well as it has. I laughed and was happy it moved so quickly, but it's like the talking turd in SOUTH PARK: it's crude and raunchy, but not particularly something I care about nor wish to see again. I also found the musical arrangements better than the music.

I laughed. Twice.

It's been Cocktail Conference all weekend. And I still have a party to go to in a couple of hours. It'll be a long night and a short sleep. I'm sure I'll be in good shape for tomorrow.

Tomorrow my last class of grad school begins.

I'm fairly exhausted, which just makes me long for June to get here.

That complete set of Rohmer sounds wonderful. I know someone once said that watching Rohmer was like watching paint dry (I think it was Gene Hackman's character in Night Moves), but I always found his pace perfect, something to luxuriate in.

I've only seen four or five of his movies. So, I hope the library gets that.

Exciting.  This is also Craig's last semester.

The matinee was completely sold out, our last in the smaller space.  Tomorrow they begin the move to the bigger space.  It was a terrific audience and show.
