Friday Friday Friday!
Dec. 7th, 2001 08:23 amIts the 7th finally, our first show is tonight! I'm really excited for it (though I think we're going to mess up the final domino-style fall in the wooden soldier number, for sure). I love being around all of the music, lights, costumes and sets - I hope I'm still able to dance while I'm in school (perhaps they have some kind of dance club I can join or classes that I can take).
I haven't been able to do any of the pre-performance rituals that I usually partake of because I haven't been around the house - like soaking in the bath, doing an extra-good job of shaving and giving myself a manicure. I guess those things don't really matter in the grand scheme of things (like nobody in the audience will be able to SEE my messy cuticles) - its just part of psyching myself up for the performance.
I'm feeling like a big lame-o at the same time though. B and I went to Netgoth coffee last night (I met him after practice in Davis Square) and I didn't have much to talk about that WASN'T the show. If you eat, sleep and breathe broadwayesque musical it can make for a dull conversational partner. I'm caught up in the excitement of performance now and a bit crazy with the lack of sleep - it will be nice when its done.
And after all of this we can see Lord of the Rings and check out the Edaville Railroad Holiday train/lights display, whee! :)
