i really like this one, too:

annabeth gish and robert patrick are cute.



oh my god. is this not the cutest picture you've ever seen? gah. you don't understand how something as simple as this can make me sooo happy. *smiles*

wow. well... you know. wow. :) i've had a good few days, if a bit odd and... confusing. but good. and rehearsal today was really great, even though it started at 9!! but for the first hour, they pretty much just talked about drugs, because the director was a hippy and the others weren't far off, and had done most things possible. it was so funny. they always are.

now, though, i'm very very very tired, and i don't know why. oh, sure, i do. because i haven't been sleeping much, and i've been doing work. and i still have work to do, and i need to figure out what i'm going to do about Sunday. the YLP meeting should be ok (except it's daylight savings the day before, so i gotta remember that), but i actually have a rehearsal that night, so i need to figure out how to get to my dad's and all that good stuff. and then next week, getting from school to rehearsal... i dunno.

oh, before i forget! rachel dearborn (though you're at a regatta at the moment), do you think your dad would be interested in helping construction stuff for our play? i also need to ask Hannah if she wants to help with costumes...

everything's so makeshift. but i love it.

I wonder if the AOL IQ test is a Scientology test. I'm curious because of something the director of my play said, but i don't remember if he said it's Earthlink or AOL run by the Scientologists. either way, at the end of the test, they asked for money to get my "full results".

I scored at genius levels, though. *grin*

ok, the lowest genius level, but still. it says "A person whose IQ score falls in the range of 161 and above is considered to be a "genius", and I got a 161, but for all I know, they just say that to make me feel better. Though when i took it again with the wrong answers, it said someone with that score is below average intelligence. so maybe i'm smart. :)



My favorite song from the play. Italics is Kafka, bold is his father, both is together, the parenthesis in the last part is the other two characters. It's not the whole song, and it sounds much better if you actually hear it, but it's such a fun song, in a weird, spooky way.

No matter where you go,
No matter how you strive,
Clouds are always hanging low,
It�s hard work to be alive!

But work hard anyway,
Keep yourself from going numb!
One day you�ll look back and you�ll say:
It�s a long dark road to where I�ve come!

No matter what you do (No matter what you do)
No matter where you turn!

Skies are rarely ever blue
(Skies are rarely ever blue)
If there�s sun, you will get burned!

But find sun anyway!
Of life�s cookie, eat each crumb,
Then you�ll look back and you�ll say,
It�s a long, dark road to where I�ve come!

One day the clouds will lift
(clouds will lift)
One day the sun will shine
(wiiiill shine)
One day you�ll share you gift
(share your gift)
And everything will be just fine
(juuust fine)
Stay on your long dark road
(long dark road)
Don�t be afraid or try to run
(toooo run)
Bear your heavy load
(heavy load)
You�ll be surprised how far you�ve come!



oh, if i forgot to mention it last night, Lynn is so cool. though she sometimes loses her patience, she is definitely one of the coolest moms i know. and she's always treated me like an adult. ok, not always. but when it counted.

when me and emily were really little, we would go to each other's houses practically every other day. well, usually her house, i guess, since it was, well, nicer. but whenever we ate there, i would always spill something. a glass of juice, a plate of rice, something. and then, when i reached a certain more mature age (say, perhaps, 4), i stopped. and then emily started. every meal, without fail, something would be spilled. it was probably really annoying, if i think about it.

there are so many memories. we used to sing, all the time. random stuff, too. i think it was always either songs from Temple, or oldies. i can remember specifically singing "Everyday" and "American Pie", and also singing stuff like "Bashana Haba'a" and "Not By Might". there's even a video of us somewhere, probably around six or so, singing Grey Squirrel.

You know:
Grey squirrel, grey squirrel, swish your bushy tail!

And you'd, you know, swish it. :) We were so cute, too. Sigh, childhood...



May 10th � who wants to take a trip with me to Canada? Ottawa, Ontario, to be exact, to go see a concert? Anyone? I will be in your eternal debt if you wanna take me.


yes, roach, they were. and i believe the plant won.


the cat kept me up all night. completely, every moment. and now it's 7:20 and i'm home. such is life. :)

Emily is asleep already. hehe. i should follow, but it's early! that and the cat amuses me. and the internet. and i'm just not tired. but i will be as soon as i lie down. poor girl, it's her birthday and she had to study and do homework, and she's a sleepy thing. but she had a good night, i think.

pity, though, luke's at his dad's. :( i haven't seen my fiance in too long...



I'm at Emily's now. she's studying for a quiz, i'm helping her by finding a study guide online. :) we went to Spago's for her birthday, i met these two girls from her class, they seem cool. It's been a decent day.

Though I woke up at 12:05 today, which is the latest I've woken up in quite a long time. very weird. i'm thinking my body's screwy right now, though i don't know why.

i have to do many things tomorrow. waking up disgustingly early because em has school. then i have to copy two CDs and make a 3rd, for the play, which may be difficult since i don't know if we have blank CDs at my mom's house. shit. oh, well. also gotta mail two scripts out and do some other random work i don't remember at the moment. but i don't have rehearsal, which is nice.

maybe i can go out at some point, just because i need to. or maybe i'll just do work.

there was something else i was gonna say, but i've forgotten now.

emily is cool. even if she doesn't go to marlborough. she goes to hamilton. weird, huh?

my god, this is the craziest cat i know. she's adorable, but she's psychotic. and i don't think she calms down. she chases everything, runs and jumps everywhere, and is just psychotic. right now, she's switching between moral combat with the flowers on the desk and trying to attack the bell... on her collar. very cute, though, and gives kisses to everything, especially arms and faces. thought i'd share.

night night, y'all!

i just had a lovely phone conversation. it's so odd, it was about almost nothing at all, but i was grinning through the entire thing, and even after i hung up, i had the stupidest smile on my face. i like feeling like that, even if i do feel like an idiot afterwards.


i need to stop liking guys. seriously. it's just getting annoying.


oh, i remember what i wanted to say.

there are definite perks to being brave (read: stupid). long hours of good conversation, for one. i thought i'd put that out there.



OH! i know what i want to do this week. but i probably won't be able to. i wanna see Danny... *pouts*


yay, blogger's finally working again.

two more days till bread. also, i saw Ice Age and Panic Room. both were surprisingly good, at lovely theatres. the new theatres at Hollywood and Highland are very cool. these are random thoughts, but i don't care.

i feel there is something else i should say. oh, i don't have rehearsal tomorrow or thursday. i wanna do something. except i have a thing tomorrow night, because it's emily's birthday, and it's been too long since i've seen her. and 17 is important. especially because it's always a good time to remind her that, no matter how much older she looks, i will always be older in reality. :)

oh, and i am currently in possession of a bullwhip. which makes me happy. :) it's a prop for the show, but it's fun. :) ok. so now what?

maybe i'll check out the Grove tomorrow or something...



they got a stage manager. her name is esther, but it's not our esther jester. but she's still cool. in fact, she was on FX's The Shield last week, i think. so yeah.

oh, one more thing.

NUTS AND BALLS!!!

(i take double dog dares very seriously)

I need a stage manager. hmph. it's only for three days. e-mail me (by today?), call me, page me, anything! it doesn't matter how experienced you are (esther!), if you want to do it and are available for tomorrow during the day and the next two nights, tell me!!

Happy Easter, y'all. I've had a very multi-religious weekend, but it's been good. Today, we went to an Easter party, complete with little kids hunting for eggs. Kenna is so cute, and will be gorgeous when she grows up. Really. All of them are so interesting.

Last night, we had a seder here. It was a lot of fun, with Emilia's kids and stuff. In the end, the traditional toast is "Next year in Jerusalem." Her kids joked, and said "Next year in Tiajuana!" And other cities. It was fun. And they learned about all the stuff on the seder plate, and the story and stuff. Then a marathon of SFU. Great fun. :)





Thank you, Blogger.
