Watched A Christmas Story last night on Dinner & A Movie. I don't find that movie quite as funny as everyone else does--for one thing, I'm always way too distracted by Melinda Dillon's horribly anachronistic hair--but there are several laugh out loud moments, like when the Bumpkiss dogs ravage the turkey. But my favorite moment is when the teacher asks "Does anyone know where Flick is?" and the cute little girl coyly points outside.
Finally got my old logon and email back at work and discovered that I've been invited to a farewell party for Bertrand Badre and his family--they're going back to France soon. How delightful--I love going to parties. It's the day after my birthday, for which Mary and I are going to have lunch at the Rainbow Room, a mere two floors above us. The RR sent out an email to all Rock Center employees offering a prix fixe lunch special. Now I can cross something else off my "New York Things I'd Like to Do Eventually" list.
Richard Welton (with whom I was going to perform a scene--he was auditioning for the Actor's Studio but his girlfriend got sick and he had to call it off) called again. He wanted to try again, although this time he wanted do a new scene. Unfortunately my schedule is tighter this time around, and it won't work out. The scene sounded great--it's from a play called Hurly Burly that now I want to read, but it's probably for the better, as I'd really just like to relax for the next few weeks.
Feel pretty rested today.
