and finally, tuesday night…

whew. i’m not excited about moving right now. even though, allegedly, in just TWO DAYS i’ll finally finally have high-speed internet access. but this whole moving thing is a big drag. i’m trying to organize things here and i have to keep cleaning and i realize how...

boxes, shower curtain rod, plus more

christine e-mailed me saying that i have to look under the sub-category “window treatments” after i look at “home decor” on overstock.com. but i’m totally bored with that now anyway. i’m just going to go out and FIND SOMETHING tonight after...

tuesday right b4 noon…

here’s a great site that christine told me about: overstock.com. she told me to look for curtains there, but their curtains seem to cost as much as the ones at target, but i only looked at about three of the 198 pages of stuff they had under the “home...

tuesday morning

i’m starting to feel lots of PRESSURE from randy, because last night he said to me “i kept checking your website and you didn’t write AT ALL.” whew, i need to be much more vigilant…but on the other hand, i was VERY VERY BUSY. and am going to be much...

why i’m a very bad person. by grace smith.

here’s me at randy’s before the gala: but don’t let this glamour photo lure you into thinking that i’m all glamorous and good…because i’m VERY VERY BAD. i have no photo of me after the gala, so i’ll have to describe me for you – big huge white t-shirt of...

hmm, on friday morning

really really weird dream last night. i won’t bore you with what it was about because i know that when people tell me their dreams and they go on and on and sometimes they’re only interesting to the person who had the dream…but i’ve been having odd dreams a few...

well….

ups. downs. this. that. my cat is fast asleep on my bed, very very happy right now to just be asleep on my bed. i need to think more in those terms. i’m probably not going to be moving into the place with the porch after all. my entire family seems to think i’ll be...

hmmmm….

where, exactly, did wednesday go? where? i was thinking i’d written on here today, but i haven’t. where was i? eating red meat, that’s where. will i never end? tonight, a vietnamese beef dish at the great new vietnamese restaurant, i think it’s called “little...

LATE on tuesday

and tomorrow is wednesday already, isn’t it? whew. today i had a PERFECT cheeseburger for lunch at maldaner’s. it was quite exciting to sit in the bar there, since it’s now ALL SMOKE-FREE. i’m really looking forward to all bars & restaurants being smoke-free in...

tuesday tuesday tuesday

i’m at the library now; i had a little free time b4 going to lunch, and when i walked in, there was my friend Kurt, standing around with a great big camera with a great big lens around his neck. i asked him to take my picture, of course,and then i chastised him for...

i survived monday, and hopefully you did too…

despite the bitter cold. at least you didn’t go to work with GOBS OF WAXY GLUE in your hair. i put more solution on it this morning and left it in for twenty minutes and washed it three times…and it was just gross. it looked like it was greasy and flat. i bought...

glue crisis

i mean, why does there have to be a crisis of any kind on a sunday night after a pretty darn exhausting weekend? i got home and put away the vast majority of my stuff from the show and i decided to take out the hair extensions because one was severely coming out...

one more time…

There it is. i hope you come to the show this afternoon, because this is your last chance. when i sat down to write this morning i had no recollection of writing that entry last night at two in the morning. the cast party was a lot of fun, by the way. the italian beef...

late late late

1:59 a.m. when i’m starting to write this, as a matter of fact. it’s probably about eight below right now. the show tonight…FANTASTIC. 224 people in attendance, people who laughed a LOT. it was really good. the party, also very fun. but the bitterly cold ride...

JOSHUA RATZ, RANDY DUNHAM, KYNDA, PLUS MORE NAMES…

first of all, i wrote a while ago about how randy finally got a new computer after his was hit by lightning and now he’s online a lot but he was dismayed when he googled himself and there were NO LISTINGS at all. so i’m just testing this to see if I write out his full...

if i wasn’t in this play…

i’d have been up early this morning looking at those last-minute weekend flight deals to warm climates, and then i’d have gotten on a plane and GONE. it’s something like 18 degrees right now, and i think that’s as high as it’s supposed to be tomorow. brrrr....

I’M the diva???!!!!

i’m at amy’s salon now. i came over this afternoon and asked her to re-glue a couple of the temporary hair extensions because they were falling out. one in particular was hanging down below all the other hair and this morning while trying to rush out the door i tried...

p.s. randy

gave me a really cool little jacket for valentine’s day, except it was too small, but he already exchanged it for a larger one. i’m quite excited about it because what with the long blonde hair which i’ll have for a few more days, plus the cute little jacket, i’ll...

CHENEY SHOOTS FRIEND!

yeah yeah yeah. i try not to shoot my friends, but then again i don’t go hunting. if i DID go hunting, i would CERTAINLY shoot somebody. probably a friend. randy, for example, he would be VERY VERY SURLY if i shot him. randy had surgery a couple of years ago, for some...

“why did I lock the door? why did YOU lock the door???”

this is the kind of thing that floats through my head all day, random snatches of dialogue from the play. that particular line is said with a british accent, and those are the lines that are really fun. but the other lines are fun too, actually. the british lines are...

one more little thing…

so i’m sure you know that comedy usually comes in threes. which is why, earlier in the day, at least a few minutes before i wrote that last entry, i knew the story about my shopping experiences was funny. three separate incidents. except of course by the time i...

so many things…

first of all, i’m not as well-rested as i thought i was when i was still sitting in bed typing. shortely thereafter i was once again longing for a nap. i expressed this longing to two different people and they both said BUT YOU GOT EIGHT AND A HALF HOURS OF SLEEP LAST...

monday morning in february

gee, how did it get to be almost mid-february already? the month has rocketed past. i slept for eight and a half hours last night. this is astounding for me, personally, and it is spectacular to start the week well-rested. for a change. and i don’t have to go to the...

sunday evening.

TIRED. is that all i ever am in my life, tired? but tonight, REALLY REALLY tired. the show last night went well. the crowd, although not that big, was bigger than opening night, and they laughed even more. this afternoon…well, at first we thought maybe they’d...

A LIFE-CHANGING PHENOMENON

let me just say this: EARPLUGS. somebody kept telling me i should wear earplugs at night to help me sleep and i thought this was a good idea in theory. but last night i finally FINALLY put some in some fabulous earplugs that i’ve had for a long long time and haven’t...

THE BIG DAY!

opening night, that is. i’m at amy’s salon waiting for her to put temporary hair extensions in my hair. she had me go get the glue for them on my way over here, but she couldn’t exactly remember the name of the place; maybe it’s called mr. j’s? and she thought it was...

Walking Wounded

in the first act of the play, after my character, Brooke, has done bodily injury to two of my fellow cast members, the guy playing the director, Lloyd, has a line, “walking wounded carry the stretched cases.” that’s how i felt last night. i wanted somebody...

OH. MY. GOD.

i woke up a little while ago, and was lying in bed feeling pretty good about life because i’d somehow managed to sleep through most of the night. i didn’t wake up till six, and was able to go back to sleep for a while longer, so i felt that the day is going to be...
