Weekend in Review

Friday Night:
Ah, the first show of the new season kicked off down at the theater so I went and had a look see. Pretty good show despite the few things that I didn’t like (animals should never be allowed on stage). Afterwards was the free food and booze party to celebrate which was fun. Mr. Guyse (a blast from the past if there ever was one) was in attendance for the show and party. It was nice to chat and play catch up.

Saturday:
There was lots of running around during the day which disolved into a pretty quite and dull evening. My copy of “The Complete Peanuts: 1959-1960” had arrived at the bookstore and I went to pick it up … totally hoping to see the Cute Bookseller. He wasn’t there but apparently they have hired some new fella that’s just as delicious as the Cute Bookseller. Now there are two guys at my favorite bookstore to be in total lust with. Sheesh.

Sunday:
Went with Franke and Christy to see Jonesy in “Pippin” at Warren Wilson College. Mary was there as well. It was a good show which had a cute leading fella which I (of course) lusted after through the entire thing. Afterwards we went and gorged ourselves at that most awesome restaurant, IHOP. God, I love that place. You can’t go wrong with coffee and pork products. Mmmm.

In semi-related news: I am a complete asshole.
In totally unrelated news: September 5, 2006 can’t get here fast enough.

Wednesday Update

Since Nels brought it up … there’s not much to report on “The Full Monty” front at this point. Apparently, the Town Manager has been super-busy trying to hire someone for some important town job. The plan is that after he is less “distracted” Libba, Steve and I will go chat with them about “The Full Monty” and what we would like to do on stage versus what that pesky town ordinance will allow. I (being the brilliant thinker that I am) have devised a way that the actors can strip and not show their “buttocks with less than a fully opaque covering.”

I suspect that one of the bigger battles involving “The Full Monty” won’t concern the stripping but will come when we hit the finale of Act One. “Michael Jordon’s Ball” features a dance sequence that lasts at least 65 measures. Steve will probably want to cut it down. I, of course, will want to keep it entact.

Anyhoo … more news as the story unfolds.
