i had a costume fitting at the met today. they were rehearsing "first emperor" cuz i could hear it over the speakers. as i was getting on the elevator backstage, placido domingo walked by and said hello. i'm sure i blushed like a schoolgirl.
then the costume people were really really nice to me, even though we all knew that i'm just one of 120 chorus people, singing in one concert. they did a good job of making me feel fancypants.
it all made me feel a little better about going back to my desk job. means to an end, means to an end.
