Awesome Weekend
I had lots of fun this weekend. Friday we went to 7 after the show and a bunch of us watched the original production of "Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street". It is one of my new favorite shows. So good! Sondheim musicals are just phenomenal.
Saturday I got up bright and early to do laundry before going to Crossgates. Sara, Amra, Amy, Amanda and I were going to be the pink ladies but we couldn't find the jackets. So now Sara, Amanda and I are Go-Go dancer, Amy is Dorothy, and Amra is a flapper. I was at the mall long enough to find my costume, then Mary, Ange, and Dave picked me up because the family was coming to Oneonta to see the show. We drove out here and I was given yet another reason to dislike old people. They think their age entitles them to everything. Sorry to burst your bubble gramps, but that is so not the case with me. Anyway, the four of us got to Oneonta and had to wait around for Mom, Sara, and Aunt Chris before we could go get dinner. So we took a short walk, then we all went to Brooks. Apparently Brooks is the place to be on a Saturday because I saw at least 5 or 6 people I knew, including Alex's parents. Poor Dave had to sit through a dinner with the six of us talking about the most inappropriate things lol. After dinner, they dropped me off then went to the mall to waste some time before the show.
Closing night was kind of disappointing, the audience didn't really get it so they didn't laugh which sucked the energy out of the show. It was ok though. Strike was ridiculously fast, I was so happy. We didn't have to strike the false proscenium, which would have taken a few hours by itself. We also didn't have to strike the lights. We were out before midnight.
Then was the cast party :-) Ah! So much fun! I only have a couple drinks so I was no where near as drunk as the rest of the people there. I think it's hilarious watching drunk people make fools of themselves. My friend Brian told the floor not to move when he got up for another drink. It was crowded at first, but once it started to thin out we had a lot of fun. Waiting for the bus back to campus was awful though! I was so cold! We finally got back around 3am and I just crashed.
I slept until about noon today, took a shower, and got lunch with Jess, Jen, and Melissa. Afterwards we went back to Jen's room and watched "The Little Mermaid" and played "Are You Smarter Than a Fifth Grader". I'm about as smart as a 3rd grader lol. It was a good time. Tonight should be fun too. Beth is trying to get people to go see "The Nightmare before Christmas" at Crossgates, but I think Frank and I might go see "1408" instead. It's on campus and free, and being a poor college student, free is so much better. I've already seen both so it doesn't really matter, but I'd rather go see the (free) scary movie. :-) Maybe I'll do some homework too. We'll see. :-D
