Blacked Out

These pants are growing (and stretching) on me.  I have now worn them 3 times in the last week and the more time I spend in them, the more comfortable sitting becomes!  Once they stretch out a bit more I think that they will be the perfect size (much like my bdg dirty denim skinnies--they may be tight, but in a good way).  I have faith.  Plus they're unlike anything else I own.  Lowrise, straight leg/bootcut jeans?  Much more seestor than me, so yay for change!

Act 2 is much better with the cuts (and moves) too!  I am excited to have a full run through tomorrow night!  I have faith that it will be awesome! And significantly shorter (I mean she cut it from 92 pgs to 77--WOW!).  Lunch will consist of me looking over all my lines again to make sure that I have all the amendments down.  And maybe possibly finding out if I can get a massage tonight instead of tomorrow night (can't miss rehearsal it being a run-through and all...).  I need it and it's probably the last one I can get before we open, so... I have faith!

Oh the cuts hurt, but were Oh so worth it!  Last night's run through of act 1 was SO much tighter and just all around better!  w00t!  This show is really shaping up nicely and I totes think that we will be ready to open in a few weeks. Now, of course, I have to get down to the business of re-memorizing all my lines with all the changes...blearg!  It'll be worth it, though!

I get to hit up yoga tonight since I'm not called until 750 and I will also, hopefully, be picking up the last component to my Halloween costume on my lunch today (supposed to be delivered to the deli next door and I just hope it's there before I take my late lunch so I can grab it, otherwise...I dunno when I can...).  Getting ish done!  That's my motto today!

Hello!  Check out my new shoezies!  (Also wearing my new hat, not pictured)  They are super cute!  Obvi a good purchase (walked to the bus stop in them and everything--still comfy--w00t!).  Below you can see how the wedge looks since I didn't really showcase that above... Oh wells!  Lots of hearts to the seestor for convincing me to buy them.  I've been looking for a comfy pair of wedges for awhile.  The only downside?  They are canvas... Not the best for Seattle weather (or my walking everywhere), but they should be great for these transition months (and beautiful days like today).  We'll see how I feel after trodding through the day and onto rehearsal tonight, but so far, so good!

So many cuts!  I haven't looked at the new script yet, but according to Rachel (the playwright) almost every scene in the first act is pared down.  And some scenes have been combo'd... Hmmm... Tonight is reworking/reblocking all of the changes.  I am interested to see what happens, but also a little nervous that my ish was cut.  It needs it though (the run on Sat was 2hr 58min long--YIKES!) and these cuts should make the first act sing a little bit more.  I mean, a 2 hour first act?  A little overkill, yes? YES!

Friday night Carrie & I went to see The Glass Menagerie at Schmee (SO good!  Patrick rocked Tom!) and then went to celebrate Jake's bday at Teddy's off Roosevelt near Greenlake (I didn't get Peaks, although I was tempted!) and had tons of funtimes!  It was nice to see people that I hadn't seen in forever.

Saturday was spent rehearsaling, rooting for my Huskies (WON against USC--w00t!!!) and going to the M's game with my mama and seestor (lost, but what's new?).  Totally fun!  Totally busy!  An totally crashed out at, like, 11pm Saturday night.

Sunday Lindy & I went shopping for Halloween stuff (for her) and regular stuff (for both of us), which was loverly.  Haven't really been able to hangout with her (or my mama) since we went on vaca last month.  So it was nice to spend some time with both of them.  Then the seestor and I went to see The Town.  LOVED IT!  Totally good, intense.  And, hello Ben Affleck & Jeremy Renner--YUM! (Jon Hamm would be in there too, but his character was kinda a dick, so... less hot).  Plus, Ben Affleck is a great director! So, good for him!

Good weekend.  Busy weekend.  Gearing up for a busy week (with LOTS of cuts in our script!)...

Minor Adjustments

Got my new jeans!  So I'm wearing them tonight!  And changed my shoes because those old ones are kinda breaking... superglued them, but I needed to give them more time before wearing them out again.  Heading out to meet Carrie before the show & grab a drink.

I'm getting things done!

Side Swept

Friday, at last.  Thank the gods!  Glass Menagerie tonight with Carrie then onto Jake's bday party near my old place in Greenlake.  And tomorrow?  The WORLD (but really, it's just our first stumble through of the show, ya know, no biggie--WAIT!  OUR FIST STUMBLE THRU--HOLY CATNIP, BATMAN!!!!!!)!

My shoes are slowly dying (I heart them--thrifted in college from Red Light, I think) and I have to re-super glue the sole of the left one, but for right now it's double sided tape to the rescue!

I wanna get brunch tomorrow before rehearsal, any takers?  Portage Bay (in SLU) 9 or 930am?  So that I am well-fed and ready to rock the show?  And the M's game after?  Anyone? ...Anyone...?  Bueller?

Also, not so sure how I feel about these side-swept bangs... Thoughts?
