We had quite a day Sunday. Went to our film club and saw an excellent
film "My Old Lady" with Kevin Kline, Maggie Smith and Kristin Scott
Thomas. (see the trailer in previous blog)
After that, drove to San Diego to the theater and saw a wonderful updated version of "Kiss Me Kate".
It was great. We had gone to see it previously and one of the cast members was taken sick and they canceled the performance. Thanks to Marge for getting us the tickets- each time.
From a review:
“Kate” is, in its own over-the-top way, a complex piece of work — a
play-within-a-play that pairs Shakespeare with the tropes of
mid-20th-century musical comedy.
Here's some of the memorable songs-
Wonderbar
So in love
Tom, Dick, Or Harry
Why can't you behave?
Always true to you in my fashion
From this moment on
and of course- Kiss me Kate.

Wine with the Mannings
A couple of weeks ago I was having wine with the Mannings...
including Maddy Manning...
who looks surprising like my favorite picture of George.
(Sorry, if I've over-used this picture of George in previous posts !)

Ivan joins George
Remember Handsome George
who made himself at home at my house several months ago?
He went to his new home with Beatrice and Bob
who met him while I was at the vet with him.
George just lost his companion, Black.

He was very lonesome and Beatrice called to
see if I had any new cats that might like
to move in with George.
What about my new foundling Ivan?
Ivan was really bored. He had even started reading the dictionary

He was badly in need of a playmate.
No matter how hard he tried the old cats
wouldn't play with him.

Even Tootie wouldn't play with Ivan.
Finally Chloe would let Ivan sleep a little bit near her....
until she fully woke up and noticed.
I was very attached to Ivan but I knew he wasn't
completely happy. He really wanted to play.
When Beatrice told me that George and Ivan
would live in a big coyote-free area, I decided to do what was best for Ivan.

Ivan's last night in my bed. I'm going to miss him.
I think he's going to be much happier with George.
So far, I've heard they're having a ball.
