Well, you've read the notes, the notes weren't too long-winded, and were breezy, and now it is time for you to post until the metaphorical cows come home.

And the word of the day is: DISEMBOGUE!

Will we never get to page two?

Eventually...as always.

"Vampire Lesbians of Sodom" as presented by TAO was very, very, very (that's three verys) funny! Because this weekend is Olympia's Capital Pride weekend, they had an opening act of these two guys (they're boyfriends), one plays keyboards and sings, the other plays the drums and they sang their own original music. I wish I could remember their name, but they were funny and loud...very loud...much too loud for the size room.

But they were good. They did about a half hour of music.

After that was the actual play, "VLoS." The set was a simple platform with two columns on each side of the front with chalk drawings to represent the different time periods. At the back, where just about everyone made their entrances and exits was a giant cut-out vagina...yes, a va-jay-jay (a "Grey's Anatomy" reference). Other than having to stare at that for an entire hour

, it was so much fun! Everyone in the cast and the audience loved it. It went by so quickly. It was only an hour long.

After that, everyone stood around and chatted. I met some friends that I hadn't seen in a while. Then, a bunch of us (including some cast members who are in "Shrew") went downstairs to the bar and chatted there for an hour or so. I eventually left, came home, watched a bit of "Dreamgirls," checked around at MySpace, caught up with the rest of yesterday's posts here and then posted this post.

And now it's time for me to sleep...finally! Yesterday was a long day. Today will probably be long, too. It's my mom's 65th birthday! I need to go over to my sister's house early this morning (after I've actually slept, of course) to help her set up and do some last minute shopping. Depending how long the party lasts, I may see another show in the evening, but I probably won't get the chance to. We'll see. Anyway, I'm off to bed!

Good night, DR George - sweet dreams!

Thank you, DR Jane!!!

DR TCB - I have no idea. He is simply one of the cast members of The Second Tosca.

I"m all alone....so all alone....

Cillaliz · « **Reply #13 on:** June 16, 2007, 05:09:27 AM »

Good morning HHW!! Just checking in to say hello before heading back down to the basement to try to learn something. The Iowa-Nebraska Chapter is having lunch together this noon, sounds like a plan to me. I haven't seen most of them since the first morning here.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #14 on:** June 16, 2007, 05:10:15 AM »

Still trying to decide whether I'll actually go to the big party tonight. I had a blast hanging out in the pool and hot tub last night and talking to people. I may just do that instead....we'll see.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #15 on:** June 16, 2007, 05:10:47 AM »

Off to find some breakfast and some knowledge

DR FJL,
So sorry to hear about BD Wong's injuries and the cancellation of the performance. I do hope that all works out--and soon!

Jrand74 · « **Reply #18 on:** June 16, 2007, 06:43:48 AM »

Go to the party, DR CILLA LIZ....go to the party.

Wow! Glad to hear BD Wong is on the mend....

No DR TCB it's not THAT Ernie Ford.....although when he first moved to Greencastle as Executive Director of the Society of Professional Journalists, an article in the local paper was headlined with that exact same phrase.

He and I played Oscar and Felix in THE ODD COUPLE a few seasons back....well he didn't bother to learn many of Oscar's lines so I kind of played both parts....but the audience liked it....or so they said.

Flat as a flitter.

Good morning!

I have finished Michael Tolliver Lives!, and am envious of those who have it all before them.

Oh, and I just saw that DR Naomi, of the slingback pumps and boa, has just popped in

Good morning DRs SINGDAW and MUSICGUY

And DR Matt.....how do your eyes possibly function, with the quantity of watching you manage to accomplish 7 days a week???

Quiet as a mouse around here this morning.

I'm off to Williamstown (the real place, not a metaphor), so I'll be E&T for the day.
