Well, I'm a little late on my once-a-month posting schedule.

And I got nothin' . . .

So here are some random thoughts . . .

THE PRESTIGE rocks  . . .

Heading off to the park tonight to see the friggin' three-hour epic version of Twelfth Night.

Show went good last night. Large crowd, although they were rather quiet.  The cool weather has helped to bring people out!

Taking it easy today to gear up for our final performance tonight. One of the guys in the cast has a birthday tomorrow, so we're planning to go out after so that we can wish him HAPPY BIRTHDAY at midnight.  Thank goodness I took ( Read more... )
