It is cold today, which is strange. It got so hot for a while, and now its cold. And apparently there's been a drought down there? My friend from Wilmington called me the other day and told me. Very weird, considering it was pouring here on Tuesday. My friend Jake and I were walking from 49th to 44th to this restaurant and it just randomly started raining like hell on us. We ducked under and awning and hung out for like 20 minutes.
So have you ever been in an audience during a show or a movie or something where the audience is reacting completely inappropriately? (Heh, kinda like Ariel and The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants...although I think Ariel's reaction was the more appropriate one. Dumb Bitches With Pants.) Well there's a couple scenes in Spring Awakening that get really strong reactions for various reasons. One scene is where this girl asks a boy to beat her with a stick because she found out that one of her friends is beaten by her father and Wendla wants to know what it feels like. It gets out of hand and the boy ends up punching her and throwing her down. Now, sometimes the audience tends to laugh at this scene if they've never seen the show before because they really don't understand what's going on, so I understand that. I hate it when they laugh, but I understand it. Well there's another scene where a boy's father finds out that he flunked out of school and smacks the shit out of him. Really...this scene is what it is. There's nothing confusing about what's happening here. Why are people going to laugh when some kid is being smacked around by his dad? I wanted to punch some people in the audience last night. The girl sitting next to me was like "They better be drunk." And when these two start having sex? People were acting like 12 year olds when Melchior pulled his pants down. Really people; everyone knows that there is nudity in this play. Get over it-its just someone's butt. How would you feel if people started laughing when you were pretending to have sex with someone? God damn.
Okay I've come down now. Melissa got a job! I told her that this means she has to come visit me, but she would rather go to Boone when I get back. LAME. Boone is way less interesting. I also talked to my grandma last night for an hour and a half. That's going to be fun when I get my phone bill. Anyway, my battery's about to die. Later.
