I'm prepping five scores at once right now. Four of them are for San Diego Opera. I start work there in December but I want to have my scores ready to work by the time I walk into prep there. The fifth is this "Merry Widow" I'm doing in Dallas come next week. Prepping consists of adding tabs so I can flip to specific scenes easily, marking in any cuts we are doing, and highlighting each character's vocal line in a different color so I can quickly tell who should be singing what line on any given page. It's a lot of tedious busy work but completely necessary for me to do my job later on.
Incidentally I've been watching a lot of "Law and Order SVU" while madly highlighting and tabbing...
John took me on a Hornblower Dinner Cruise tonight through the San Diego Bay. It was a terrific evening and we both deserved it so much after a whole week of not feeling so hot. We didn't really date much before attaching each other at the hip so it's nice to go out on a bona fide date every once in a while. We dressed up, drank champagne, stood along the railing letting the wind hit us in the face and ate cheesecake. The only thing we didn't do is dance. John doesn't dance. I may have to see about fixing that...
Monday I have to pack for another five weeks away.
I don't wanna. (stamps foot impetuously).

No matter where in the world you go, theaters are all the same. For an artist on the road, this universal truth is sometimes the only sense of continuity you get...the tune, the lights dimming, the feel of the seat against your back. This is a blog about the performing arts...but it is also about finding home and community in a wayfaring life.

I've always played a little game in my head as to what rolex replica uk car corresponds to which watch - like those matching games you'd play in the newspaper. So match the car with the watch... Here are a few of my matches: Panerai and BMW, Lange and Maybach, Patek and Mercedes, Jaeger and Lexus, IWC and Audi, and the rolex replica uk quintessential American luxury car: Cadillac and Rolex. The luxury car and rolex replica sale watch for the masses. I was brought up in the 1960's and 1970's, and I remember so vividly the anticipation of the new car design lineups each replica watches sale September when the car companies released the next year's models. What shape would the car be?…how would replica watches the taillights look? Would the grill be redesigned? What colors would be available? What horsepower would the engines have? It was a veritable replica watches uk cornucopia of new head spinning stuff.
