I'm listening to Terry Gross' interview of Sondheim from yesterday, and they just mentioned that "Epiphany" from Sweeney Todd is being sung in the latest Sondheim review by...
...Tom Wopat.
Okay!
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Okay!
Massage is less than an hour away. I hope loosening up some of my muscles will make this headache go away.
I need to get brave enough to cook beets.Don't really know why I have haven't, other than an unconscious fear of the mess. Plus, I don't think CJ likes them so cooking for just me feels funky. I should actually ask him. Or even just cook them and see if he eats any.
Lightning Cat vs. The Iceland Volcano
Ben Grelle made this awesome image of Lightning Cat doing battle with the Eyjafjallajökull Volcano in Iceland.
I didn't know roasting beets was so easy. Awesome!
I saw Wopat in the Annie Get Your Gun revival with the AWESOME Bernadette Peters several years ago. He was good. Not "good for a TV dude" good, but actually good.
Yeah, but I have an easier time envisioning him in Annie Get Your Gun than in Sweeney. Perhaps it's just a failure of my imagination. Or the fact that he's forever going to be one of the Duke boys.
1. Roasting beets is pretty easy.
2. Trader Joe's sells roasted and peeled beets in a vacuum packed thingie.
Mmmm, beets.
They taste like dirt!
You sure know how to sell stuff.
I should do a TJ's run after work today. Maybe, just maybe.
Beets are the one vegetable that really turn my stomach. I think because I only ever had nasty canned ones as a kid. Thanks, Mom.
Maybe I should try fresh ones. Or not.
Nasty canned beets do not taste like nommy fresh ones.
