Halolz

I tend to forget how awesome other people can be. I really need to make a sticky note or something to remind myself... I have good friends.

Played Halo for the first time today with a friend and his roommates. I kinda got the hang of it but I still suck at it. Laser swords and gravity hammers are freaking sweet, though. Especially when it's set to triple speed and half gravity. Then hilarity ensues.

We did cue-to-cue for our musical today. This is where we basically go through the show bit by bit in order to get all the music, sound, and lighting cues down. I'd heard stories before about how hellish these days were supposed to be, but the two I've been involved with (Abstnercranth and now Urinetown) have been pretty easy, to be honest. Today got off to a slow start but we were done in time for dinner, and although my legs are still sore I feel pretty positive about how this is going to turn out.

I think there's really an equal share of work for everyone onstage, whether you're in chorus or a lead. Chorus has to learn all sorts of dances and most of the songs, but leads have lots of lines and solos. Everybody really has to pull their weight- and that's just the actors, that doesn't include the crew who also does a lot to make sure the show goes as best as it possibly can. Except for dance choreographers who think they're qualified to direct everyone in singing and acting as well. Those people are just jerks.

I have a paper that needs worked on sometime. It's short but due Monday- perhaps I will work on it before/after rehearsal tomorrow. I really want Subway for lunch, too, I haven't been there in a while and have been craving it for a few days now.

Do you ever wonder if the people you're thinking about are thinking of you too?
