Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

Don't know if I mentioned it here, but yesterday a couple we helped with a fiancé visa and an adjustment of status stopped in to surprise us with chocolate cupcakes to help celebrate their wedding anniversary.   The husband was one of those people who stopped in all the time all sad and depressed.   He was nearly in (happy) tears yesterday and said thanks in a very heartfelt way, especially to Edith who talked to him every time he came in.   The wife is from the Philippines and I was relieved to hear her whole family is in Manila and they are all ok.

That's a great story, Cillaliz!

Tonight, I worked concessions for a college production of "A Servant of Two Masters."  The only thing that I sold during the pre-show was one roll of Mentos.  Otherwise, I myself bought a double-chocolate cookie and some cashews. :-\ At intermission, no one even left the theater!  I had no other sales at all.  Oh, well.

Right now, the 1998 London production of Oklahoma! with Hugh Jackman is on PBS, right now.  I have the region 2 DVD from England, but I'm watching it anyway.

I forgot that Hunky Hugh was shirtless in one scene. ;)

On my way home from the show tonight, my car rolled over 150000 miles!

Been back for an hour and on the phone ever since - there has, without going into detail (that's for later) been a lot of turmoil at the theater, mostly stemming from how the artistic director has been dealing with me and the show for the last two days.  I don't respond well to certain kinds of things, and unfortunately that's what's been happening and it pretty much came to a head tonight and I came close to pulling the show.  But she and I had a lengthy conversation just now, I told her what was not working in her approach and she apologized and said she'd try to do things in the way I need to have them done.  My two cast members have also been unhappy because they've felt very negative vibes - hopefully that will now all change.  I can't worry about anything other than now trying to get my cast where they need to be.  Some of the show is working spectacularly well and some of the performances need a bit of work.
