NOTES WITH PHOTOS

Bruce Kimmel Photograph bk's notes

Well, dear readers, it is late so I must write these here notes in a hurry but also because I want to write four more pages before bed, so, as Jackie Gleason used to say, Away We Go! That was also the original title of Oklahoma! Yesterday is a bit of a blur due to five hours of sleep – AGAIN – don’t know why other than there’s a lot o’ stuff in the old cranium at the moment. I can’t even remember when I finally gave up and got out of bed, but it was before ten. I answered e-mails, then futzed and finessed a LOT, then ordered orange chicken and ate that when it arrived, wrote a few new pages, then took a break and instantly dozed off. I took a shower, wrote another page, had to do a few other things that needed doing, took another break and instantly dozed off, had a KFC extra crispy breast for a snack – pretty good, actually – wrote another two new pages, ended a chapter and began a new chapter. And then it was time to write some damn notes. The site and new server seem to like each other, and all issues have been fixed, although he’s checking on the avatar situation a few folks are still having. I’m sure that will get fixed today. That’s really about it, I’m afraid – I said it would basically be a writing week and so far, it has been. I really need to get further, though – by bedtime I should have just passed page 170, and I’d certainly like to get to 180 today so I can get to 190 tomorrow and send Muse Margaret the second batch of pages. We shall see.

Today, I’ll try to be up by ten, I’ll futz and finesse, write new pages, eat, write more pages, take a few breaks as I go, write, have a snack, and maybe at some point watch, listen, and relax.

Tomorrow will be more of the same, with a very needed haircut at noon-thirty. Friday, I have an early morning doctor appointment, then I’ll write, and then we resume performances of The Altruist, although I’m not sure I’ll attend the Friday night show. It depends where I am in the book.

Speaking of our show, I thought I’d share some photographs. Here they come.

Aren’t those fun? All taken by Doug Engalla.

Well, dear readers, I must take the day, I must do the things I do, I must, for example, try to be up by ten, futz and finesse, write new pages, eat, write more pages, take a few breaks as I go, write, have a snack, then perhaps I’ll be able to watch, listen, and relax. Today’s topic of discussion: It’s Ask BK day, the day in which you get to ask me or any dear reader any old question you like and we get to give any old answer we like. So, let’s have loads of lovely questions and loads of lovely answers and loads of lovely postings, shall we, whilst I hit the road to dreamland, happy to have posted notes with photos.
