I have a few more things to do, then I can watch something.

Page four - at long last.

It was a long time coming.

I'm still full from the sandwiches.

Are you?

I am.

I was listening to this new release today, and thinking how much Rebecca Luker sounds like Barbara Cook in certain registers.

Timbre, as vocal pedagogues say.

Mom has died. I was on the phone, talking to her. I told her when she was ready, she could go. She went immediately after.

I'm so sorry, John G. Sending condolences to you and your family.

A colleague went to the MN State Fair today. I told her that I hoped she ate all the things.

singdaw · « **Reply #100 on:** August 23, 2024, 03:06:10 PM »

Our State Fair is the second-largest in the country by attendance, only smaller that Texas's. But they run much longer than our 12 days.

I don't go anymore. I find that as I age, I am more shy of large crowds.

singdaw · « **Reply #102 on:** August 23, 2024, 03:07:09 PM »

Just not my thing.

singdaw · « **Reply #103 on:** August 23, 2024, 03:07:35 PM »

I am not attending live classical concerts or theater as much as I used to, either.

singdaw · « **Reply #104 on:** August 23, 2024, 03:08:02 PM »

COVID kind of put an end to all that, and I'm not sure that I'll ever go back.

singdaw · « **Reply #105 on:** August 23, 2024, 03:08:25 PM »

To pre-COVID levels, at any rate.

singdaw · « **Reply #106 on:** August 23, 2024, 03:08:44 PM »

I see the new COVID vaccine for this Fall has been approved by the FDA.

I'm sorry to hear about your Mother, DR JohnG. Sending my condolences.

Here's a shirt for you, DR George, if you ever get tired of Hawaiian.

singdaw · « **Reply #109 on:** August 23, 2024, 03:15:47 PM »

DR John G., I am so glad that you were able to go out for your mother's last birthday celebration, not that long ago.

Why say in one post what you can stretch out to five posts?

Exactly!

Gratuitous Post #111!!!

From George:

Yes, two. I'm #13 on on 2 copies from my library (13 week wait), and #10 on 6 copies at Pierce County (4 week wait).

I thought I had to pick one library or the other, or the book was automatically held in the shortest queue.

Are you using Libby? I'm not. I went to each library's OverDrive page and added my holds there.

I'm using Libby as I thought I had to use it to put books on hold.

I don't know about that, but the OverDrive sites are still around...so far.

Friday was kind of a my day already, just not quite what I hoped for, but still a fine my day.

Speaking of "My Day" -

Skip's song "Today Is My Day" (the opening number from our musical "Viva Max!")

Thank you, all.

Were you able to get a flight, John G?

singdaw · « **Reply #116 on:** August 23, 2024, 04:43:41 PM »

Five?

singdaw · « **Reply #117 on:** August 23, 2024, 04:43:51 PM »

We can do five.

singdaw · « **Reply #118 on:** August 23, 2024, 04:43:58 PM »

Sakes alive.

singdaw · « **Reply #119 on:** August 23, 2024, 04:44:05 PM »
