One of the good things about having to come down to San Jose this week was that it gave me the opportunity to see one of the final performances of Emojiland, which runs through Sunday ( Read more... )

During the introduction to Thanks for Playing the Game Show Show there was a promotion for another show called Ric Iverson is Alive and Well and Living in Milpitas. Ric was the actor who portrayed "Tripp MacMurray," the game show announcer. He and I had spoken a few times and got along well. (He remembers me as "Microphone Guy" because of my loan ( Read more... )

Yesterday was my semi-annual diabetes check-in. Things are about where they have been. Maybe slightly improved due to adding a new medication to the mix. Nothing else has gone wrong. Losing weight would help. I wonder if the large numbers of steps I'm logging this week is helping. Also on the docket yesterday was the second and final dose of a ( Read more... )

Today I got the Rolling Stone ready to roll down to the Bay Area for a week of work, medical appointments (all routine), and probably a show -- 3Below Theatre's production of Nine: The Musical. I'd go next Thursday when some of the other BASFA members are going, but with a 4 AM alarm on working days, Friday is really the only night I can manage it ( Read more... )

After work yesterday, I parked the RV in my usual overnight parking spot, walked over to the light rail station, and caught a train heading for downtown. I had a ticket for the 7:30 PM show at 3Below Theatre of Disenchanted, a musical about Disney Princesses - but one that does warn people that it's probably not a great idea to bring small children ( Read more... )

Yesterday evening, after a busy afternoon traveling up and down the Peninsula by both VTA light rail and Caltrain heavy rail (about which more later), I went to downtown San Jose to see the 3Below Theatre production of A Spoonful of Sherman.

For the first time in months (and several weeks after having to scrub a trip due to snow), I'm taking the Rolling Stone down to the Bay Area and working from the offices down there. I have a couple of medical appointments during the week, BASFA has their outing to the San Jose Giants next Saturday, and I also hope to get to see A Spoonful of ( Read more... )

I had a fantastic time attending Who's Holiday last night at 3Below Theatre. This is a one-woman show starring Shannon Guggenheim as no-longer-so-young Cindy Lou Who, delivered (mostly) in rhyming couplets a la Doctor Seuss.

( Terrible Photo Night )

I'm off to San José to see Who's Holiday tonight, with a bunch of my fannish friends. This is an out-tonight, back-tomorrow trip, and I'll apparently be racing ahead of another storm tomorrow, but I should have time to stop and deliver a Christmas present to my sister in Sacramento ( Read more... )

The reason I am in San Jose today was to see a play.
