BB - I worked with the Chicago Medieval Players decades ago and we would perform anywhere -most notable - Playboy Mansion and Rockefeller Chapel at University of Chicago.

Right now - four of the Brd family are working within blocks and Mrs Brd and I will have lunch at the girl's place of employment!

Other then a delayed train - not so Crappy Monday indeed!

C16's grades were not bad for four honors courses and both grandparents dying at the end of the semester!

'Morning, all!
Had dinner last night with two long-time friends. We get together 4 or 5 times a year to catch up ion life, kids, aging parents, etc. Last night one of the friends told us that she and her husband had split. In fact, they've been divorced for over a year! She never said anything to us over the years. Talk about being a private person! My other friend was shocked, but I wasn't surprised by the split, just the silence throughout the past 3 years. I spent most of the night ruminating about the nature of love, marriage and growing older. I need to do my ruminating during daylight hours.

Moony,that's weird. A friend told me that him and his wife got divorced too. She has a drinking and prescription drug problem. He tried to help her, but she refuses to admit she has a problem. After too many calls that she was in a car accident (luckily no one else was hurt. Mainly she wound up in a ditch). he gave her the option of either seeking professional help or a divorce. Well I guess we know what she chose. The only ones that know they're divorced are his mother and me. He doesn't want me to tell our mutual friends because he's afraid they'd act weird towards her when she's around. He still takes her on vacations when he goes with our friends. I'm trying to get him to understand that he's still being an enabler by doing this. He needs her to make it on her own without any help from him. He'll eventually learn. I just need to be a friend and listen right now.

Cashed in a couple broadway.com g.c. I kept forgetting I had! And I still have a little bit of a balance on one of them.

Addy - so will I - I saw all of the performances, save 1 (which was not open), and my favorite was Kelli, followed by Idina and Jessie, then Sutton. I think because Idina's show got such mixed reviews (and maybe the fact that the role is so contemporary) she is an after thought this year. I liked Jessie, but Kelli blew me away.

I wish there was a video of Bridges - it really is something that PBS could have aired.

Does seem like a PBS thing! The Light in the Piazza video is stunning to me! One of my favorite scores and shows!

Who did win the Drama Desk award? Yes I've been out of the loop lately.

The Tony Awards are on at the exact time as the Miss USA Pageant. I don't know what I am going do; unless Hugh Jackman dons a bikina and an evening gown.

Boobs,

If you want to move the show to Michigan, you can do whatever you want in my church/home. It's 150 years old and the upstairs still looks like a functioning church with a pipe organ, choir loft, bell tower, and stained glass windows.



I have been dealing with some family issues and haven't been around much. My father is going senile, my step mother has turned into a total beeyatch, my sister moved back from Hawaii with her son, after her breast cancer and was living with them to get back on her feet. My dad couldn't take a three year old in the house and literally kicked them out last week. My other sister called me yesterday for some help with something and when I called back, the police were there, her husband had walked out and her special needs child was being hauled off by the cops.

This is going to make for a great Fathers Day.....
