perv award

the show I'm working on right now opened last night accompanied by too much wine and a a few moments that were, well, just too much. they give out a "golden homie", otherwise known as a gold spray painted homer simpson pez dispenser, that resembles a very small golden penis. I was asked to accept the golden penis award on behalf of a co-worker who I adore, and the acceptance was accompanied by a little too much touching from the director, who is also my boss. ewwww, gross! I sweat so much standing in front of everyone after already downing too much wine. the rest of the evening was spent on the fire escape with all my best friends, a high school kid who flirts with older women, a foxy mother/daughter pair, and a smattering of kids I went to school with. one of the better opening nights, which we closed down again, thank you team H. cheers to robots, new yorkers, student designers, noggin' juice and crazy folks... "that's the magic part"

now it's sunday and family night has already come and gone with only two l-words left before we'll have to come up with something better to do on sunday nights. and I embark on my first weekend (as in 3 sequencial days off!!!!!!) since I skipped town for x-mas. I've worked my butt off all year thus far and I'm so thrilled to get out of town. a little road trip south.

perfect days in the dark

It's such a perfect day. I have matinee eyes after having a smoke break on the fire escape looking out at the ocean and angel island. nicole yells "boat" in excitement because we are truly that brain dead. but it's back to what's been dubbed "hotel corrie" which is within the area of backstage on the northside theatre which has been dubbed "shit-land" due to all the crap being tossed back in the corner because this place has no storage for anything.

I wish I was on the back of a motorcycle in the sun. I wish I was drinking a cosmopolitan at the bar. I wish I was laying on the beach, or shopping for a pair of black suede boots. Oh god, anywhere but backstage in the dark!
