E-mail from Mum

Verbatim text from my loving Mama, who has no idea how funny she is

Did you go see Black Panther yesterday? I’ll go in a few weeks. Tomorrow I want to see Phantom Thread. Tonight see your Papa in concert. Now, making signs for church

Where we'll be tonight

Hi Loves,

I had wanted to go see this in person after seeing a filmed production in NY on KPBS and hearing that the SD Symphony would do the program (sans Elfman & Burton but you don’t get everything in life). Wanda graciously got us comps. I’m planning on wearing my tiny skeleton hand hat and I’ve told your papa that he should wear his hatchet as the program info invites you to come in costume.

Channeling my dad

Hola Mijas!

My father would always call me twice a year to remind me it was the time change. So here I am being my pops. Set your clocks back and enjoy the reclaimed hour of time in sleep or wakefulness - whichever way you take it.

Fwd: Coming soon… an extremely upsetting new show from Netflix

This is looking fun. Also want to see three movies this weekend - Hidden Figures, Moonlight, and A Monster Calls. Can I do it? Better go rest my greatness on my vast quantity of pillows.

Pat the Bunny

Hi my Bunny,

You may certainly get the regular PTB for Oliver! It was my interpretation that I expressed to your pops (and said so) that I thought they were wanting to build a picture book library but even if this is so there are ALWAYS room for board books, especially those of a superb nature and especially when personally beloved. A note expressing your joy of this book would be cherished.

Do you need there address?

Huggies, Mama

Jessica's New Job

Hola mi mijas!

Gen may have already caught this but anyway - Jessica has been offered and has accepted a full time job with the San Jose city library system (she would have opted for the county system but this will do). She’ll find out shortly what branch she will be assigned to. She’ll be leaving her teaching job second half of April. I bet she’s pretty stoked!

Besos, Mama

Back Home

Hello My Lovelies,

Just letting you know we are back at home. Thank you both for my lovely Mother’s Day messages on Sunday - that made my day!

Claire, thank you for the card and flowers and Second Mother note from your crew mates. Thanks for making sure that sand was left in the garden and leaving the house so tidy. Papa appreciates the beer. Hope you all had a wonderfully relaxing and temp moderate and non-desert weekend.

Love, The Mama

Theatre for yo Papa's birthday

Hi Honey,

I am planning on getting tix at the Old Globe on Friday, 6/16 to see The Old Man and the Old Moon (link below). We’d do a picnic dinner in the park that I can mostly prepare ahead of time and then leave work a little early, and picnic ahead of curtain at 8 pm. I need to know if you can confirm that you can get here by Friday afternoon. Please let me ASAP.

Yo Ma

P.S. This is not a surprise; it is Papa approved.

My darling child

Having been gifted with yet another eloquent, gracious, poetic, loving missive from you charms me, humbles me, delights me, honors me far beyond anything deserved. I am so very fortunate to have you placed in my care for the time needed for you to soar on your own. I will continue to be your safety net although I see you flying ever wider  and higher and may it be so.

Dear Ellen & Phil,

We are firm on this point, whenever you come it will not impede our holiday and, yes, you should plan on staying here.

Are you eating cheesecake and reading the Book of Ruth?

Yellow Fin Tuna Warning

B/C I know you’re planning on going out for Sushi on Thursday. Jim says there is an outbreak of hepatitis from YF Tuna from local restaurants using contaminated fish from the Philippians. He’s not touching any for now.

Ignore your father

He didn’t give my a chance to get up and look before texting you about your flight. Like about one minute of time was all I needed.

The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater by Andrew Eccles

A look at acclaimed photographer Andrew Eccles’ impressive body of work with The Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater; one of the most powerful dance companies in the world. 

His classically composed, technically flawless style showcases the majesty of the human body in all its glory, capturing the dancers in performance, behind-the-scenes, and in stunning portraits.
