A good week for theater! On Wednesday, we attended Poe... And All The Others, a new play by Tony Tsendeas, as presented at Reynold's Tavern by the Annapolis Shakespeare Company. Last year's production of Poe was one of the first shows we saw from this company, and it was a good show. This year's production, again featuring Brian Keith MacDonald and Renata Plecha, is simply superb!

A good week: At work, I got several long-term tasks completed. Things went well enough that I took Friday off. To celebrate that banner event, I spent the morning cleaning the main floor of the house, then went out to lunch with a friend from NFR days. It was great to see Sharon, and we had a nice chat while enjoying an excellent meal at Woodmont Grill. From there, she went back to her office, and I headed up the road to the Apple Store in Columbia. I now have a new small tablet, and it's ALSO a phone! The…
