Well, I must say, Friday's small rehearsal was a lot less rambunctious than the previous ones. Which was certainly a relief; I don't always know my spells are going to go off as planned, and I am out of practice. But it seems to have worked, peace reigned in the auditorium, and I feel much more positive about our production being a success. Thank

Huh. Trying to figure out whether or not she's being kinda flirty is distracting me from the long wait for Astra and Taffy to emerge from the back. I dunno if that's a good or a bad thing.

"Work gives me too much time to think," I tell her. "Not much mental effort involved."

[_heather_v]

I laugh. "I wouldn't mind that problem. Lately I have so many details to remember all the time, I don't have time to think about normal things like what to have for dinner."

I twist my glass, making damp rings on the napkin it's sitting on. "Want to switch for a week? I can swing a hammer pretty well."

"That'd mean I'd have to deal with all those teenage girls who giggle at me in the halls, right? No thanks." Honestly? They scare me. "I'll keep my hammer-swingin'."

I finish my beer and signal for another one. Somebody's gonna have to roll me home.

"Oh come on, you must love the attention," I say, only half joking. I'd seen the girls in the cast going gaga over him and half wanted to join them, but I have to keep my dignity. "But seriously, I doubt any of them would be brash enough to actually stalk you or anything."

"Attention is one thing," I tell her. "Attention from jailbait? No thanks. I have enough problems." I nod to Willy, thanking him for the beer. "I dunno, Heather. You've seen how some of these girls act, probably more than I have." Except they're not trying to check out her ass.

I laugh as Taffy bursts upon us, and almost spill my drink. I guess I have to take his word for it that that's just friend-behavior and not girlfriend stuff.

"Your phone was possessed? Well, well, that's a new one. And growing up around here, I thought I'd heard everything." I turn suddenly, thinking I saw something out of the corner of my eye, but nothing is there. "So, what did it do, ring all night and keep you awake?"

I cough, trying desperately for a distraction. Yeah, this is Sunnydale, but I dunno if she knows about the huge demon issues or not. "Um. Something like that. I was about to take a hammer to it. Still might. Damned thing."

I probably sound nervous, and I take a huge gulp of beer. Yeah, that'll help.
