A Visit from Steven

[drscott]

Friday I neatened up the house and shopped for the evening dinner party featuring special guest Steven Levine (unzeugmatic) and local special guest Lou Ceci, as well as regulars John and Mark. Steven arrived early (coming straight from work in Mountain View) and regaled us with a Morris dancing demo before the rest of the guests arrived. As usual I didn't get to partake of the pre-dinner repartee much, but dinner was fun -- we heard stories of how Steven was taken to dinner by Garrison Keillor, and discovered Steven and John had a good mutual friend whose first husband switched sexes [must be a really wrenching experience for everyone involved!] There was much discussion (most of it over my musical head) about shape note singing. While I was busy with food prep I got to overhear lots of interesting chatter about *me*, always my favorite topic. I didn't try anything new for dinner, but it turned out well.

Nice to see a picture of Steven with ya'll! I enjoyed meeting him when he came to "Evita" in Newark during the holidays! Hugs to you!

We all of us live everywhere, I think.

I still feel all special and giggly that we got to meet you backstage and go out for a bit as a group. I'm just a Stagedoor Johnny at heart.
