Funnier than a cup of sand.
God…I really want one of these things. :( I want to drive by the AT&T Store on Dobbin and see the line, but I’m called at rehearsal soon.
Since I can’t get the real thing, I’ve been keeping my Razr in an “iPhone case”, available from the iPhone Countdown site.
Only two hours, 41 minutes, and 58 seconds more! :D
It all worked out. Congrats on a pretty good first show, guys. We can only get better from here! :)
The weather out here is freaking disgusting. It’s been hovering around 90 degrees with humidity of more than 50%.
The pleasantness that I am filled with when I walk outside resembles that of a dry, itchy crotch. ((Yes, I stole this from dooce.)) It also has not rained in two weeks. Although summer droughts are not uncommon in Maryland and I have learned to live with them, I do still enjoy an occasional thunder storm.
Tonight is opening night for The Music Man! I’m pretty excited….I know all of my lines and all of the sound chinks have been worked out. I do, however, loathe my costume. It’s quite hot and stuffy.
Hot, stuffy suits and dry, itchy crotch weather do not mix well. I guess the combination of those two result in something along the lines of gonorrhea.
the weather is hot.
people’s blood is boiling.
someone is going to explode tomorrow.
“Wow, I’m going to have a lot of things to blog about tonight.”
Today was our very first attempt at a technical run-through at rehearsal. I was surprised, because all things considered, it went pretty well. I was scrambling around trying to fix mic packs and get my lines in and do a bunch of stuff, so I’m exhausted right now and this post might be a little…short and choppy, because I’m a bit groggy right now.
First off: Little kids + microphones = BAD THINGS. Instead of giving an in-depth explanation, I will simply make a list of all of today’s child-related microphone incidents catastrophes:
Notice that the majority of these actions were unmotivated (a.k.a. they were “random” or “without reason”).
But other than that, everything is working out okay. I just reworked my microphone plot because it turns out that we have another microphone, which is great news. The costumes all look great, too. I don’t have one yet, but I’m guessing it’s going to be somewhere along the lines of a suit.
Lights also come up tomorrow, which is going to be fun. There aren’t too many lights, so it’s not going to be a big complicated progress, but it’s always fun to have stage lights. Also tomorrow, our photographer is coming in to do portraits and candids, which, again, is always fun.
The show is really starting to come together…we just need to WHIP THESE FREAKING KIDS INTO LINE AND EVERYTHING WILL BE FAN-FREAKING-TASTIC help the younger children to understand things from our perspective and hopefully then they will cooperate more easily.
