Weekend in Review
Friday was a blissfully quiet day at work as about half of the office had taken the day off. I managed to get ton done and felt great about it. After work, I got my stuff together and headed over to the Gothic Arches for another evening of makeup for Macbeth. I wasn't in the mood to socialize and I knew the cast party would be Saturday night so I just headed home to relax for the remainder of my evening.
Saturday was a pretty decent day. I went through my cookbooks and found an old recipe that I hadn't made in years so I could bring something to the cast party (which was a potluck). I made sweet & spicy cashew chicken. I enjoyed the process and found that it forced me to slow down for a while and get into a bit of a zone. The next thing I knew, it was time to head back over to the Gothic Arches for the last round of Macbeth makeup. After the show, I brushed out the witches hair pieces and then headed to my place for a "pit stop" with Kristi to get changed, have a quick glass of wine and freshen up. I guess we took a bit longer than expected, as we got a call from someone at the arches informing us that they were waiting on us to do the thank-you speeches - oops! Kizzy joined us and we headed over. Thanks to everyone for the lovely gift certificate to Ambiance Day spa. I plan to use that soon.... perhaps for a pedicure... :-)
The cast party was pretty mellow. I think things got shut down somewhere around 2:30, and since a few of us were still in the mood to keep going, we headed over to Kizzy's. I had a blast singing show tunes at the top of my lungs with Amber - LOL. I think we called it a night around 6:30. I know it was light out as we were leaving. Good times. :-) And of course, that means I spent the better part of Sunday recuperating.
So, a quiet Sunday with a first rehearsal for "The Spelling Bee" that evening. I only had half of my cast there (it's a 2-man show) but we got some stuff covered. Lots for him to think about and work on. After that I finally had the free time and inclination to put on "Angels in America" (which Jay has kindly lent to me). I watched the first part, "Millennium Approaches" while flipping through some cookbooks to find something new to make for myself for dinner. It was lovely and relaxing.
