'Morning!
Absolutely gorgeous morning out there. We're scheduling a fire drill in a few hours. Let's see who, if anyone, returns inside.
Morning peeps! "The Temple" is going to be the death of me! Between "Roll on up...." and "See my eyes..." All I can say is, F you Tim Rice! They want us off book by Thursday. We don't even have the right books yet. It seems the Musical director's score and the books from R&H that we have are different. Our lyrics are even off. WTF? I apologize in advance for any mumbling you may hear during this number.
Morning Adults!
I still want to fangirl all over Boobs.
Happy Hump Day!
Much to do today - but all is good here.

Actually, I think it would be fun to watch a video of the rehearsals!
Moony, it would be kind of funny to hear all the mumbles. It sounds like we all have marbles in our mouth. The asst. director keeps yelling "diction!" Well I think that's what she's saying.

Love it BB!!!!
Back from the partial white trash funeral. It is like there are two families - the educated and hicks.
Siblings fought over the most stupid issue - I am the Executor and apparently told my drunk brother to shut up three times during the family meeting. Old rifts are not going away and a few new chasms! But, overall very nice tribute! Exhausted!
Brd - I sympathize and identify. My mom's sister's family is basically a Jewish version of the Beverly Hillbillies, without the money.
Welcome back. Big old hugs to you.

Y, I literally thought of you twice as I was passing I380 near Iowa City!

Welcome back, Brd!
A good number of my husband's family is quite....rural. This includes his brother-in-law who just died. If they hadn't cremated him, I'm sure they would have buried him with his guns and empty beer cans. It's always a an interesting cultural exchange experience when we go back to visit his family.
Welcome Home brd. Your family situation sounds like mine. Sad to say that I'm the quiet one of the bunch.
So if brd "apparently" told off his drunk brother three times, does that mean brd was drunk, too?
From the sounds of it, I probably would've needed to be!

BGW - not "really" - I was well aware of the telling him to sit down, I just did not realize I said "shut up"!

Hi, all!
Spring in New York must be gorgeous by now. Woozy locals or not.
Moony, sorry the reply has been several days late. We have encountered a bit of broadband trouble. Anyway, you asked about my Hawks. They are seven weeks into a season that promises to be quite successful. We are (note the we) are on top of the standings following several wins with huge margins. Last week they played in torrential rain, wind, hail and thunder and you would have thought it a dry, sunny afternoon, the win was massive! So, I am a happy little Hawthorn fan.

Hap! Wow - they are off to a blazing start! I smell the aroma of a championship in the future!
And how are YOU doing?
Taking a break from spreadsheets in the office.
How happy to find a couple of night owls here, too!
Happy end of Hump Day Adults.
Addy- thinking good thoughts for you and yours.
I'll be glad when 11:30 is here. A head honcho is here until then, and everyone's in a panic. Of course, I'm stuck with greeting him, getting him settled, etc. Breakfast buffet for his 8:00 is due to be delivered at 7:30. Fingers crossed all goes well!

Morning peeps!
Honcho: A person in charge of some group or of some function, usually a male person. A Japanese word, often mistakenly thought to be of Spanish origin.
Well then, seems I used the correct word!

You did. I'm always curious how these words come about. We learned today that it's not of Spanish origin like I thought.
Hi.
I. Need. Coffee.
That is all.
(miss you all)
Morning Adults - lots to do to get it all "done" before Monday.
Happy Day before the weekend.
We have an official Jeans day today and Jeans Friday, so I am a happy YWIW.
It's raining here in NYC, so I'm more casual than usual in the office on a Thursday.
I'm just glued to my desk, so it doesn't really matter... today had to be about comfort. Nice when we can do that!
I'm so bummed that rain is predicted for next week. It's the annual Broadcast Network Upfront extravaganza, and we spend the entire week running from one event, meal, meeting, dinner, meet and greet, presentation... to the next. All over the city. No time in the office to get real work done (and yet it waits for nothing). As much fun as it is to see some of the programming announcements, it's exhausting with clients in tow every minute of the day. Rain just makes it miserable.
But, other than that...
Boobs, I just read back and hope you're having fun with the rehearsals.
I'm sorry I'm so behind on everyone else's news. Sending happy thoughts your way.
