Illness

The Matinee continues to be on hiatus as I treat a medical condition. Many thanks to Verne Windham for picking 'encore' episodes to air. As soon as I can I will produce more episodes.

What have I got? It seems to be a brain/spinal-fluid leak, causing a constant headache whenever I'm in an upright position. Spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH) is more common than you might think, but seems to be under-diagnosed. I'm grateful to my friend and former vocal coach, Scarlett, for letting me know about her experience with it, I think that sent my doctors down the right path in treating this.

Tony Awards on Sunday!

One of my favorite television showcases comes on this Sunday night. The Tony Awards, the celebration of Broadway's current season, focuses on musical theater because it's so much easier to perform a song than it is to pull a scene from a play out of context. And that's another story, but since my passion is musical theater songs, I'm in heaven. The website for the Tonys is quite thorough, with clips from the musicals and interviews with nominees. I still need to find time to go through all the stuff at tonyawards.com.

And no, I don't have any favorites or clues on who will win. Between pre-season prep for Spokane Children's Theatre, prep for this show, and my daughter's 6th birthday (oh yeah, our 11th wedding anniversary too) I haven't had a chance to hardly look at the nominees. I'll be even more surprised than you on Sunday. Here in Spokane, the Tony Awards are on channel 2 (KREM-TV) starting at 8 p.m.
