Wow. I slept in until 1 p.m. today. I haven't done that in like....ever. Let's recap last night's events, shall we:

Closing night for "Pericles". Props to everyone who came and watched; we hope you liked it. I'm really sad that it's all over, but I had a blast working on it. Everyone in the cast was uber energized and you caould tell that they really wanted to go out with a bang. We did have a small setback, though. One of our guys, Andrew, went to the hospital that morning and couldn't be in the show. He's had mono for the past couple of weeks, so we were kind of expecting something like this to happen, though. We had Matt prepare for all of Andrew's parts right before warm-ups, though, and the show was completely seamless. Mom and my cousin Adam came to see the show and were really impressed by it; Adam even caught all the film references - that impressed me. It's funny, right before curtain, I got really excited when I thought about them being in the house. I never get excited about stuff like that (with the exception of Dad and Kathy coming to "KMK", but that was different). Immediately after the show was strike. Dude, nothing like H.S. strikes. First off, the guys all "struck their faces" and shaved all their beards and stuff that Neilson had made them grow. We were there until 3 a.m. taking down sets, lights, props, and memories. Amber and I tried to pass the time by singing show tunes. It was like "Strike: The Musical". Afterward, everyone went to the cast party. I don't normally go to parties, but I really thought that I earned this one, however, Mom wanted to go to breakfast thi morning, so I didn't go. *tear* Anyway, yeah. Mom call the room this morning at 8 O' CLOCK A.M.!!!!!!!! to wake me up. Holy mother of God, I could have killed her. She called back again at 9 to let me know that she was downstairs. Man, I'm surprised Audrey didn't kill me. So, yeah, went to IHOP, short trip to Wal-Tucky, and then I went back to the room and went to sleep. Excellent.
