So Say We All!


Glorious lazy day today until the show tonight! I was able to just lay in bed and watch tv and eat and not run around like a crazy person (like I did yesterday)...

The show was fanstastic tonight. I think both the audience and us were just super-grateful that it was not raining! Not that the show is ever bad...but tonight was pretty loverly...

I wore my kimchi blue flower tee from UO with my black jolt pants and black grommeted Paolo flats both from Nordys. I also grabbed the green & grey striped Cardigan in case it got colder later (it did).

I can't believe that we only have 2 more performances! This show has flown by and while I am ecstatic to start working on my next one, I don't wanna leave my cast & crew of this show. Everyone's so loverly and wonderful... Hopefully we will have a HUGE blowout party to end this thing.

Insane Saturday


I literally left my house yesterday at 10:15am and didn't get home until around 2:00am this morning... Uh, INSANE!

Went to yoga yesterday morning for the first time on a Saturday in a LOOOONG time. And from there went directly to our rainy-ass show. And let me tell you, it was super, super rainy. I ended up looking very much like a drowned rat for most of the show, but the audience was great (about 80 of them stuck it out). Then there was the fundraiser in between our show and R&J which was short, full of food and booze and a little piano bar singing.

After that I headed straight to Pageant Play at Theatre Scmeatre. It was hilarious! So funny and well-written and the acting was great! Plus it's always great to see friends onstage, especially when they are so talented!

THEN I went to the late 14/48 show where the most hilarious part of the night happened after the show was over. Everyone was onstage congratulating those involved and all of a sudden I realized I knew someone up there, my roommate, who I had NO IDEA would be at the show. We somehow managed not to see each other before the show OR at intermission and we might have missed each other completely except that I saw her up there. Bahahahaha! When two theatre people are as busy as we are, sometimes we just don't see each other except at other theatre events...

It was hilarious.

I wore my current/elliot boyfriend jeans from Nordys, green-striped Cardigan sweater and thrifted LOVE tee with my Sperry Top-Siders.

Full Frontal!


Um, super glad that I got this bolero back from Dani (she's been holding it hostage since this night way back in May when I left it at her house on accident... Also, sidenote: interesting how similar the 2 outfits are--only difference are the pants--totally unintentional...hmmm...). I think I only got to wear it once or twice and I supes heart it, so YAY! Dani FTW!

Also, FFOK was pretty epic last nite. I hit it up after our show and planned on staying for one drink and one song (haha, right?) and ended up hanging out with my new friend (with THE fiercest voice, EVER!), Kate until closing... Whoops! Free drinks and fun times=very little sleep, but TONS of funtimes! It's really kinda unfair how much fun FFOK is every other week...

Tonight we fight the Blue Angels traffic to get to Redmond City Hall by 6pm (haha)... and just kinda cross our fingers and hope that we can all get there sans traffic... This is our last non-Seattle performance (thank GOD!). Doing GreenStage really made me realize just what a city girl I am. Even West Seattle feels like a different world (not to mention Burien, Redmond or Fall City...). Let's stick to my city, thank you very much! Excited to do my next show on the Hill (and can we talk about how ironic it is that I finally get cast in a show (2 shows actually, if you count Condo at NWFF) up there RIGHT after I move off it? Oh, the irony...)!

And speaking of irony, I would LOVE to address the fact that although it may not have been HOT all summer, it has been relatively warm and sunny and this weekend? Seafair weekend? The first time it's supposed to rain during the day! HAHA! And ONLY on Sat/Sun! bahahahah! So amused by this... BUT this also means it is fleet week! w00t! Sailers! Everywhere! FTW!

Today my pictures totes remind me of this moment (start it around the 2 minute mark) from old Thoroughly Modern Millie movie--bahahaha "Gee I wish my fronts weren't so full...they sure ruin the lines of your beads" just might be the best silent movie "line" EVER! Anyways... I am wearing my recently returned H&M black sequined bolero with my H&M zipper-shoulder b&w striped tee, my j brand grey skinnies from Nordys and my bdg black saddle shoes from UO.

Out of Your Dreams...


Finished the big audition this morning (without having to sing the SUPER high song that I happened to memorize...) with a conversation with the casting director about "my dancing"--my un-coordination strikes again! Meh... oh wells... What can you do? The song kicked ass, so I'm concentrating on that part right now...

We jump (head first) back into As You tonight (sans p/u rehearsal--w00t!) and I am super excited to start playing again! Only 2 more weekends and 6 more performances! But we're mostly rockin' it in Seattle from now on (with a brief trip to Redmond tomorrow).

For le audition/nice weather I am wearing my flounce tbd brown polka dotted dress with lace trim from Nordys, thrifted 3/4 sleeve lace-back tan sweater and brown Seychelles pumps with gold trim from Loehmanns in NYC. Also wearing my pearlized shell bracelet from Hawaii.

COVET


A pair of Summer to Winter wedges such as these Ash Lotus Cut-Out Booties. I want something peep-toe and I want something with cutouts, but I also want something wedged and something in a neutral color...

I WANT THESE!

Scaled Down

Holy crap! Today is, literally, insane! Can I talk about how happy I am that we don't have a pickup rehearsal tonight? Oh SOOO happy... I mean, come on! I SLEPT THROUGH my alarm... SLEPT THROUGH IT! WTF?! My phone told me so ("alarm automatically shuts off after 10 minutes"). That means that I somehow managed to hear 10 minutes of incessant "beep-beep-beep-beep"-ing and not wake up... DAMN!

Thank GOD the roomie knocked saying "hey, it's 8, are you getting up?" and then GAH!!!! Total freak out! Also, thank Steph for picking me up for work, otherwise... there's no telling how late I would have been...

Blearg... I hate that morning stress...

Anyway, went to yoga for the first time in ___ months and it kicked my ass! It was great, but I am now ridic sore (especially my arms, holy crap!). So glad that I decided to shower last nite... THAT would have been gross... Hopefully, I can hit it up again on Sat before our matinée, but I will see how I feel (hello! Slept through the alarm! Might need a little break).

Seestor couldn't come through with the cheapy ticket to Ruined, so the roomie and I are gonna see if we can go sometime next week... Had a nice nite though...

Today I am wearing my white sequined navy blue tank from Nordys with my skinny grey Levis, white Seychelles sailer slingbacks (also from Nordys) and black cap-sleeved cropped sweater from Macys.

New: Purse


This one will be arriving next Mon and I am supes excited about it. Another Tory Burch (she totes wins!), her Dafina Tote. It seems like a nice, large end of summer bag in a great color! I am loving BBOS... le sigh.
