What to do... What to do...

I did not watch Jesus Christ Superstar last night. I recorded it because I wanted to see it and keep it. I like the play but I love the music so much. Since it first came out. I remember everyone being scandalized by the very title of the play. Really. We had just moved to NYC where it was only a little scandalous, but our friends in North Carolina wouldn't even say the name out loud. They called it Superstar. I'm looking forward to savoring the recording of it.

It was nice to get back to the pool today. There were two other swimmers - both regulars and both hour swimmers. We had all the lanes covered. It was nice and peaceful.

I have a shirt cut out and ready to sew. But now that I've got it on the brain, that living room cupboard reorg is calling my name... I do have a lunch date so starting the reorg seems like not a good idea since I might not be able to finish. But, maybe I will anyway. Just to get it off my brain.

Also I will be going to Goodwill on Wednesday so I want to do it before then so I can include, hopefully, a bunch of it in the Goodwill bag. So, yeah, I think I'll do that. I just finished the book by the mover so now I can fire up Terry Gross's interview of him. In the book he talks about how truckers love NPR (because it's the same all over the country so you never lose it when the station changes) and how he imagines being interviewed by Terry Gross as nirvana.

My baseball has a day off today so maybe I'll watch JCSS tonight.

When I was little they showed the movie of JCS on TV each Easter so this staging was a real treat. I am eager to see what you think of it. A lot of it I found myself shocked I was enjoying so much. I hope the same for you!

I tried to watch some of it but the ad breaks made it unwatchable. Imagine a Broadway musical and after each number they stopped the play so that someone could come out on stage and try to sell shit to you. A few people on Twitter were moaning that they couldn't watch it because they no longer had TVs. I told them in all seriousness to just torrent it the next day as the ads will have been edited out.

I watched half last night. And you are right. It was doable here only because my setup auto-skips all the commercials. Still jolting to be taken out of the play be even a blip.
