how did that happen? it\u2019s too hot to go outside right now. the thermometer outside the door reads 100. no point in going outside, except to get ice cream sandwiches, which we just did. i\u2019m going to nap in a minute.<\/p>\n
we\u2019re going to muni to see “chicago” tonight but IT WILL BE MUCH TOO HOT. we looked for mini personal fans while at the store buying ice cream but couldn\u2019t find any. wouldn\u2019t it be funny if you took a big box fan and set it up and brought lots of extension cord and plugged it in? of course they wouldn\u2019t let you actually do it, but it\u2019d be funny attempting it.<\/p>\n
i can\u2019t imagine that the show will be crowded tonight because IT\u2019S TOO HOT TO BE OUTSIDE.<\/p>\n
maybe a cold front will blow through any minute.<\/p>\n
this morning i was lying in bed thinking about the garage sale stuff. we sold LOTS AND LOTS of stuff and took the rest to the salvation army drop box over in the wal mart parking lot. the signs around the box said DO NOT LEAVE ITEMS OUTSIDE BOX but all the boxes were stuffed full and there were already lots and lots of things piled around the boxes, so we unloaded all our stuff and left.<\/p>\n
but this morning i kept thinking about all that stuff, wishing we hadn\u2019t been so hasty in carting it all away, wishing i hadn\u2019t given away those four white plates even though i have at least 10 others…i toyed with the idea of driving over there and digging through my stuff and pulling out things that i really can\u2019t live without.<\/p>\n
this is a little ironic given the one character i\u2019m playing in our show DANGER: ADULT CONTENT which opens this friday, because she\u2019s a woman turning into a bag lady and she does dig through garbage cans quite a bit.<\/p>\n
but this wouldn\u2019t be like that, because i\u2019d just be digging through MY OWN STUFF, plus it\u2019s not a garbage can, it\u2019s a salvation army box.<\/p>\n
and it\u2019s too hot to do it anyway.<\/p>\n
luckily.<\/p>\n
because otherwise i\u2019d probably do it.<\/p>\n
Kevin says that if we actually NEED any of the stuff we got rid of, we can just go buy a new one. WHY BUY A NEW ONE WHEN I JUST GAVE AWAY PERFECTLY GOOD STUFF?<\/p>\n
i was kind of amazed at the things people bought. somebody actually paid 50 cents for my crappy black plastic colander. and randy\u2019s mom had the most ugly thing to hang on the wall that i\u2019ve ever seen, but somebody paid at least a couple of bucks for it. the sale was supposed to start at eight, and people were there by seven and the place was completely crowded until 9:30. after that it died down a little and randy kept saying that it was over, but they kept coming in right up to the end and beyond. at 12, when we said it\u2019d be over, a couple of women and a girl jumped out of a car and the girl ran up and started grabbing things. her mom wouldn\u2019t let her keep my red patent leather purse, but they did buy a bunch more stuff, including this thing MFH had hanging on his wall that i was never extremely fond of and i was glad to see that a little girl wanted it instead of having to toss it in with all the other salvation army stuff.<\/p>\n
it was a frantic sale, we made a bunch of money, and we celebrated with lunch at panera. last night we celebrated some more, because friday was randy\u2019s birthday, and then i was more tired than i\u2019ve ever been. <\/p>\n
and we\u2019re going to muni tonight and it will be VERY VERY HOT.<\/p>\n
today i\u2019m wondering why we live here. it\u2019s too cold in the winter and in the summer it\u2019s frequently unbearably hot, like today.<\/p>\n
once i get all my stuff settled here at K\u2019s house, i guess i won\u2019t want to move away because of the thought of doing any more moving.<\/p>\n
but maybe i\u2019ll change my mind.<\/p>\n
change is good, after all.<\/p>\n
brendan and jerri are moving out of their fabulous loft apartment in downtown LA to a house in Pasadena. a house will be better for the baby, and for Brooklyn the dog. but it sure was a cool apartment. i can\u2019t imagine moving all their stuff, because they have more books than anybody i know. but i\u2019m sure they get movers to move everything every time they move, which is a lot. but still, even if movers move stuff, don\u2019t you have to put the stuff away once it\u2019s there?<\/p>\n
it seems daunting. it seems daunting thinking of squeezing all my stuff into this house right now, but then again, K got rid of an impressive amount of stuff and i might have a good amount of closet space.<\/p>\n
at rehearsal on friday night, we went to carrie\u2019s house and did it in her back yard which i\u2019m not sure you can technically call a yard because it\u2019s more like a concrete place with a little screened house, and we had a cookout and ran the show. and it\u2019s going to be VERY VERY FUNNY so i hope you can make it. friday and saturday nightts, club room at the hoogland arts center downtown, 9:00 p.m. it only lasts about an hour and a half, including intermission, and it\u2019s funny and different and like nothing you usually ever see around here.<\/p>\n
plus it\u2019s AIR CONDITIONED.<\/p>\n
what more could you ask for?<\/p>\n
ok then,<\/p>\n
