Walked in the pouring rain, which lasted all the livelong day. Nevertheless, I went to the thrift store in Manahawkin in search of lace gloves to wear in "Hedda," but no luck. I did buy a black hat I thought might be more appropriate for my "Rina's death" scene than the three others I have--we'll see. I'm still looking for white gloves that might serve to cover my wedding ring--my character, Aunt Julia, is a spinster--but no luck. Then it occurred to me that maybe I could get a large, showy ring to wear above it and hide it. Maybe.
Skyped Ellen and had a nice chat. Her new car is great, although very electronically equipped, so you have all kinds of bells and whistles to learn how to operate.
Speaking of "how to operate," I wanted to see again the CD I bought some time ago, of the 1963 version of Hedda, with Ingrid Bergman in the starring role. Annoyingly, I couldn't get the recorder to show it on the screen, although I think it was actually running. Also, as I was pushing this button and that, I accidentally added the text used by the hard of hearing, and now I can't turn it off! Good thing I don't watch much TV anyway.
Aside from making a salad and a few other domestic chores, I didn't do a lot else but spend time on the computer. Sent Ellen V. a revised bio for the program, not being happy with the first one. Printed out one of the many photos of the adorable Sweetie-Pie in Tokyo and framed it. It shows sweet baby with his right hand in the air, as if he's pontificating on some ponderous topic--so cute!
