It's such a treat to have days comfortably above freezing. We still get dips into cold at night, and soaking chill rain is now a thing once again. Yes, we get tastes of all the seasonal treats here in New York! It's no wonder we're such a cheery lot. But yes, yes, it is starting to feel like this long winter is losing its grip at last. Winter was long indeed. Looking at you, Punxsutawney Phil. Looking at you.

Our production of Romeo & Juliet lurches up to its feet in the theater. It's Learn-My-Lines o'clock over here, I have to get the script out of my hands and start making the stagework make sense. We're sliding toward opening night before we even know it: time is funny that way. We open in just over a week.

This is a new key, and should work like new. If you have trouble with it, please let me know.
