Walk @ Lunch

The destination today was the new walk along the Tower Bridge. A crossover to the West Sac Side, and then back again, though Old Sac along the docks, through the Amtrak station and a crisscross path back to the office. Somewhere around 2.5 miles.

Today's listening were several podcast episodes

To The Rescue

My Walk @ Lunch was short, just 1.73139 mi according to Google Maps. I only had a short time to be out, as I had a 1 PM meeting.

Along the route, on W St., I had the opportunity to help a woman trying to load a used recliner into her SUV. It fit, and I was on my way.

Only Golden Fingers

Here's the latest on Only Golden Finger Could Play So Heavy. On November 12, 2007, Act 3 was read by the Thistle Dew Workshop. From the original work, I move a couple of scenes from Act 2 into Act 3 to lengthen it, and restored the previously cut Todd Rundgren scene, at least for the reading. I read the part of "I" and Cece even read a small part as Rocky's Mother.

A fairly extensive critique session followed, with a lot of good comments. As I've always known, Act 3 is the weakest, and it was pointed out that there really isn't any drama within the Act. Some also pointed out that the character "I" was not despicable enough in Act 2, and perhaps that aspect should be strengthened. I got some very positive comments about the music as well. I turned over a copy of the play to Tom at the playhouse for their library.

As for the music, I may be working with my long-time friend Jeff to do a more professionally produced job on the music. Time will tell on that, but it was his suggestion to get together.

Walk @ Lunch

Another short one today, just over 2 miles.

Birthday Girl

Today is Cece's 51st birthday, so I went after lunch (lunch was my Toastmasters meeting) to pick up a couple of gift cards at Macy's and Bath and Body Works, plus a little something at Hallmark. Normally, I don't walk @ lunch on Thursday because of my noontime meeting, but today had to be an exception. Basically, down to the mall and back, so it was only a little over a mile.

Tonight, we're going to Jalisco's in Roseville for dinner, then on to Thunder Valley for a bit of gaming, and we will be hitting the Starbucks there as well. It wouldn't be Thursday, if we didn't hit Starbucks.
