Had a great conversation with Carol (the daughter of my first cousin, but only six years younger than I) that calmed me down a bit. We spoke about the new sub system, and she informed me that one of the schools that called me was very good. Unfortunately, I had turned them down a few minutes earlier, but...hey. atleast I know---we talked for about half an hour, something about the conversation was very reassuring, also her mother is in New York, undergoing some therapy for her health problems, so perhaps I will get to see all of them (Stan, Kayla and the two girls, Molly and Jessie) fairly soon. Be nice not to wait until Thanksgiving. Carol told me she is dating a woman, apparently they spent most of the summer together, she seems happy---all to the good. Then Jamie called confirming Friends on Friday, ninth graders, I really enjoyed working with them last year, three classes, things are beginning to shape up there...too tired to go out, instead, gorged myself on Bagel Chips, probably shouldn't have, then around 10:00 P.M. fell asleep, awoke close to 5:00 A.M., body totally relaxed, cleansed, almost...feeling much more secure---ironically no calls from DOE this morning, not what I had expected, but went to Old Navy, bought a belt so that I could replace the one Trevor gave me on Monday, and brought myself here.
Interesting review by Michael Finegold on the two plays at BAM, glad I have not seen them, though I suppose it would be interesting to hear Lear again, however what he gets at---no through line in the production, no real coherence, that seems very easy for me. Will I ever get to do either of those two plays---is that necessary---can I really bring an honesty to them that will come accross---Sea Gull, really see Nina, the same way I did forty years ago...well whatever...anyway, back to the real world, possibly some NYMF in my future, we'll see...
