Let's see... What's happened since Wednesday afternoon? Not much, actually.
Tech rehearsals start for Travesties (by Tom Stoppard) today and it opens on Friday. I'm running lightboard this time. Hopefully I won't have any travesties like on Saint Joan.
Regina, Chrissie, and Heather took me shopping and to dinner Friday night so that Regina could get me a birthday present. It was a lot of fun.
Had my birthday dinner with the family on Saturday night since I'm going to be at rehearsal on Wednesday night until about 10:30/11:00 pm. But my brother gave me a $25 gift certificate to the Deer Park (restaurant/tavern where he works and we usually frequent). So may be after I get done the show, I can go out or something and drag some friends.
Went to the opera for the first time yesterday. Regina and I went and saw Tosca - which I enjoyed. Took a while to get into it, since I wasn't used to the idea of them singing in Italian and having to read the translations, but it was good. Favorite parts: 1) she's starting to get jealous that her boyfriend, Mario, is seeing someone else and at one point, he goes on for a minute or two and the translation? "Get serious." 2) making "Tosca: The Romance Novel" jokes with Regina during the intermissions. But the soprano who sang the part of Tosca - Lisa Daltirus - was *amazing*.
After last night's episode of "Alias", I think I love Victor Garber. He's such a great actor. And after last night's episode of "Angel" - if I didn't already love Joss Whedon, I do now. And I got more reasons for why I love Alexis Denisof. As well as a fight with Regina over Fred/Gunn.
And the sign ups for the PBP are on Wednesday. AAAHHH!!! I hope I get in!

uhmm
Ahhhh, Tosca
See, didn't I tell you that the opera was worth the effort? I'm so jealous, though, 'cause I've never seen Tosca in a live performance.
