A little shopping, dear...
...at the Canal Place...
I decided to take a walk through the mall on the way home... It's a rather nice mall at the foot of Canal Street with lots of pricey shops like Poverty Barn and Williams Balogna... (hehe), and of course the kaaay-ween of over-priced retail, Saks Fifth Avenue.
I passed on the Jean Paul Gaultier $595 Charm Shirt... and went out the door and found this exhibit near by....the Audrey Hepburn exhibit.
I didn't have time to stop, and they were charging like 10 bucks, and no pictures! So, I hung around the front for a lil' while, shut off the flash and took this pic.
O.K., that was kind of cheap... I think I'll go back and actually pay the admission...
OMG! BatBoy, The Musical!
It's at The Southern Rep Theater and it looks wonderful, it's had very good reviews, everyone seems to be in loooove with the batboy....
...no wonder, eh?
a bite on the hand might be sooo continental, but...
All the rest...
...good week at work, all six days...
...my friend from college ! Kate, was here over the weekend with her entire family! It's been years (oh, actually decades!) since I've seen Kate's entire family in the same place including her mother; they were all here for her Mom's 80th birthday. They all flew here for a surprise birthday party for their Mom and I was lucky enough to be included. They stayed at a wonderful Bed and Breakfast about six blocks from my house, which is owned by a lovely gay couple (that knew Margaret, of course). All ten of them stayed there, and there was room for a few more... it would be the perfect place for a get-together for all of us.... lots of bedrooms, a kitchen, a dining room, and a large second floor outdoor area with a hot tub and garden below. And close to the Quarter.
...my Dad is happy enough, I guess...
...I got turned onto new music by Bry, of ChaosInAustin. Her name is Jacinta and you can hear more of her HERE. I think she's really amazing... and as Bry says, "she's gonna be a stah!"
...and Ford, dear, it would be so right to send me a sarong...
...I am trying to move the journal, (and a lot of the site) to Moveable Type, but it's proving to be a bit of a twisty task. If things get wierd, let me know bye-mail....
...ah, and the message board...well, I think I stated my case again. We've gone over ten thousand posts, (did you think I didn't notice?), and it's gone this far because of a sense of integrity, a sense that you actually knew the characters on the board. In fact, many of us have met, or at least talked on the phone, and some of us have become friends. That's what makes this board work. The other stuff is destructive.
I won't let the bad stuff destroy this community.
I promise.
