Rehearsal was good – fast, anyway. we didn’t start on time because i was five minutes late. the director, john, called me at 7:03 and i yelled into the phone, “I’M SORRY AND I’M DRIVING 50 DOWN MONROE STREET!” so then he couldn’t very well be mad at me, since i was making such a concerted effort/risking life-n-limb, to get to rehearsal on time.
we went to the Lime Street Cafe afterwards, a few of us, and john and i split Ultimate Nachos. they are, indeed, ultimate. the platter they arrived on was as big as a…well, as a gigantic platter, heaped with the ultimate in nachos.
i ate too many of them. i couldn’t resist – i feel that this might have been the first time i’ve actually boldly ordered the nachos.
They were delicious.
i also had two glasses of wine, but they were incidental.
it’ll seem funny doing the show again tomorrow night. tonight i was slightly tired, because of all the exercising earlier in the day. somehow i’d thought the rehearsal wouldn’t involve so much jumping around, but i did do quite a bit of it. nobody to blame but myself.
i think tomorrow night’s performance will seem more real again, because of the costumes and the ballet shoes and the pin curls. i must say that the ballet was infinitely easier in tennis shoes instead of ballet shoes.
whew. hopefully i’ll sleep all night tonight, even though i ate a few hundred too many nachos.
i’m getting a little weary of being wide awake for a couple of hours, in the middle of the night. and it’s making me a little weary, too.
ok then,
grace
