WILD night last night at the show. It was a special 'Disco' themed show and I delivered in spades. During the day not much happened. I packed for my trip tomorrow, cleaned the house, watched some TV and hung out. The kid and I ran a couple of errands. Dropped movies off with a friend that I had borrowed, found a really ugly afro wig to wear to the show, and that's pretty much it. It wasn't until later that the fun started.
I drove a few people to the show so they came over earlier in the evening like around 7. We all sat around talking and being goofy until almost 10 when we headed out. Everyone who dressed up looked great. I did the music last night and had some great classics as well as some bad bad stuff all queued up and ready to go.
We got into the theater at 10:30 well ahead of schedule and by 11 had everything ready to go which gave us an hour to play with the audience.
I won't lie - I had some self loathing moments last night where I felt old and lonely, but they were momentary thank goodness. It's still bouncing around the back of my head, but I will manage. I have to right?
The show went well. No major mishaps, nothing exploded. After the show like 15 of us went to our regular after show diner and one of our friends had Cards Against Humanity with her. Out it came. We stayed there for over an hour playing. We even roped in a couple of girls who had been at the show from another table. That was a load of fun. A couple of people had never played which led to some great looks of confusion.
Got home around 5. I tried to stay awake until six to check in for my flight tomorrow but couldn't do it. I managed to check in at 7 but there seems to be a problem with my boarding pass for my second flight. I need to print out my receipt today to make sure I have it with me. Luckily I have my first flight which means I can pop into the Admiral's Club in Chicago to get my second boarding pass. I have a two hour layover in Chicago and will have plenty of time to get my pass. I may not get the seat I want, but whatever. It's a hopper flight anyway. Not the end of the world. On the way TO Chicago I have my exit row which is all that matters.
I was supposed to go shopping with a friend in the city today but since I have to be up at 3 tomorrow and don't have a holiday like normal people, I had to beg off. I wanted to go, but I would have had to take the train and it would have been a pain getting in and out of the city. Oh well.
I did get an honor last night from a friend. One of our fellow cast mates is getting married next month and very few people on cast are going to the wedding. I would say maybe 8-10 out of 60+ people. Well last night she invited me and the kid. She has a tight limit of 150 people and as she is getting cancelations she is inviting select people to come. Yes, I get that it makes us second tier, but after actual family and people she has known for 10 years? Yeah, I am touched to be asked. I mean seriously, those 8-10 who get to go she has known for at least 10 if not more years. So to be in the small group who get to go means a lot to me. Of course this means I have to buy a present.
Time to shower.
