Friday Roundup

That's me with the Faz family at a book signing. I'm still waiting to hear news on the dvd release of the film. I checked out the film website today but couldn't find anything regarding a dvd release date.


Well, the week flew by as expected. It always seems to get very busy this time of year for us making it a challenge to enjoy the holiday season. Pammy and Rey have been working on the ten gingerbread houses that are needed for a fundraiser for the San Antonio Metropolitan Ballet which is coming up in a week.

I'm still working on putting the final touches to the "Hansel and Gretel" set pieces. My son, Jose, and I spent the afternoon roughing up the wood for the cage to give it a well worn look. I'll be working on the oven in the next few days to finish that up too. I've got two weeks left to complete the work so that the pieces can be used in rehearsals at the Jo Long theatre at the Carver.

Doc continues to get his groove with the new show: "Doc Ed: History of a Rock Star". I'm still waiting on the final word regarding my contract for the new year. It looks to be good news but I'm waiting to see it in writing before I become giddy about another year of financial security. Oh, and Sarah at the Aquifer Authority ordered another duck pan (it's magic prop), toy truck with sound effects (part of my tools of the trade) and a new Chadderbox which is a portable, compact, sound system.

One last thing. I saw a documentary this evening that I wanted to let you know about. Here's the link. It was on POV on PBS. http://www.pbs.org/pov/ballad/

Hasta manana.
