Today was....crazy, kind of scary, but everything turned out well in the end. Thanks, Sara, for being wonderful and kind and caring and I just love you.
After school, got coffee with Avalon and Oliver to keep us up through the rest of the day. Came home, checked stuff, showered, got ready, had crazy printer trouble, then Oliver picked me up. I helped with make-up and sign in shit, and opening night was off.
I wore my boots 'cause I thought it was going to rain [it didn't, luckily], but I realized they were fucking loud so I asked Meghann to switch shoes with me. That was fine, but her sandals have no tread, so that was a problem. I ended up [embarrassingly enough] asking Pat Riley if I could borrow his shoes for the night [which I did] and he thought I was weird, but he loves me so it was good. And I didn't fall once.
The house was full enough for satisfaction, but the audience was either dumb, extremely tired, or lacked any sort of attention span. They could have been better. Some lines were skipped, a cue was missed, but it was fine; the audience probably had no idea. There were llike 6 gazillion people waiting in the lobby afterwards. I've never seen so many people wait in there. Anyway, got closer to a few new friends, got lots of hugs and good wished for tomorrow. The show ended at 10:30. That's as long as fucking Iceman was. Chris, Oliver, Kirk and I waited 'til everyone was gone, Chris and Oli put up notes to the cast, and Oliver dropped us all off and Kirk and I wished them both a hearty farewell. I hope they have an awesome trip.
Tomorrow's going to be hell, but I think I can manage, as long as I get up ontime.
Good night.
