Our day always seems so dull when I sit down to write at night, which has been a bit less regular than it has been. We had dance with Karen Doll, and I mentioned that we went to see a drag show and it featured Judy Garland, and she was thrilled. She said that whenever she goes to that show, she gets pulled up on stage as Judy’s Stand-in. Visually it must be pretty hysterical, as the Karen is about half the size of “Judy”. After the class she said that David was doing much better since the last time she saw him. The last class we took was before we left for Paris. I have to remind myself how far we have come since the stroke.
We had an earthquake today. That was pretty exciting. We were waiting for Blade and when the ground shook, he said they still make him scared. When we first arrived, Blade told David how great he looked in the car and how great his tan was. Then Blade said how good he thought my haircut was (oh, yes, David and I got haircuts – maybe more exciting than the earthquake), David complained about the attention Blade was showing me. Toward the end of the session, Blade told David he was doing well. David wanted him to give him an estimate for how long it was going to be for him to get back to normal. Blade, dodged the question, beautifully (and wisely!) I don’t know what we would do without Blade.
When we got home from Blade, got a call from Pamela (& David) who are visiting nearby, and we want to get together tomorrow evening. I thought it would be a problem to find a reservation on New Year’s Eve, and granted, most of the restaurants are full, I got us a reservation on the early side at Wang’s in the Desert.
The weather is glorious!
