All the Marbles

Posted By on September 30, 2005

So the Box Sox and the Yankees are playing this weekend for all the marbles or at least who has bragging rights since the Wildcard seems to be theirs unless Cleveland wakes up. My prediction for the World Series is Soxs (pick your favorite color Red or White) vs. Braves and the Braves finally take away all the marbles.

Caroline’s favorite new show is “Go Diego Go.” This is a higher energy version of Dora the Explorer sort of a boy version of the show. She saw a magazine with Diego on the cover and asked for it very politely so I got it for her. She has been looking through the magazine a lot. I think today we will try some of the games. She has been alternating between that and her current BabyBug magazine which she will let me read to her when she wants to be read to. She loves to look through books. There are some that she doesn’t want read to her. She just wants to look at them.

One hat as done as I can get it without a fitting. The other will be done as far as I can by rehearsal. The mask is in stall and I will get back to it tomorrow.

Anyone have a good sound effect of a head being chopped off? There are days I miss the YSD’s sound library. I need the sound of the axe falling and the thump. I remember hearing it a long time ago on a Halloween album but I don’t think I own that one anymore.

I have to write a short Theater Bio for the program. I haven’t done one of those in years so I am going to have to find my previous one and update it. I wonder how old it is?

I am grateful for buckram and boning.

    I was searching for a Boots the Monkey costume online and came across your entry about making your child the costume. Where did you get the pattern? My 2 year old wants to be Dora, so we want to dress our 9 month old up as Boots! But we are having no luck! Can you help?

    It’s me again, about the Boots Costume. I don’t know if you get my email address when I post something here, so I thought I would give it to you. It is bretteanderson@yahoo.com. Please email me if you can help! Thank you so much.

    I almost hate to post this, but I have an album of sound effects which has the ‘swing, thump, fall and roll’ you may be looking for. I say ‘hate to’ because I don’t know how to get it to you.
