Didn't get to the pancake breakfast, rat wasn't ready in time. So I did post office stuff and we grabbed a wee bite before going to the craft show. Surprised rat wanted to go along but his motive was to scope out the baked goods. The craft show/sale is a yearly thing to raise money for one of the high school's drill team. rat hated the little girls running around in their little outfits too. Only spent 45 minutes there even though it is a big show. One of my school acquaintances had a booth there and does some cute cat stuff so I got one of her little stuffed orange Halloween cats. At another booth I found two reindeer with a distressed finish. rat found some yummy-scented homemade soap. He likes to wash his face with good-smelling soap, partly so I will go up to him and tell him how good he smells. And he found and purchased a big container of scrummy iced brownies.
Got a chance to go home for a nap for a while. Then we went for dinner at one of our favorite Mexican restaurants, Dos Charos. After that, met the folks at their place so we could car-pool to the play at the new theatre center. Luckily they had been there scoping the place out because the place is one of the most poorly designed places I have ever been in.
In the car garage is two elevators but only one of them actually opens to the theatre with a door on the other side of the elevator. The other just goes up and down in the garage. Any signs about this posted anywhere? Not even!
Once you actually get into the theatre you have to walk from the back of the building to the front of the building to get to another set of elevators to get to the second level of the small theatre where the show was to be. No restrooms on this level, stupid design. You either have to go up or down a level to find any restrooms.
And both elevators are not labeled with simple buttons like 1, 2 and 3. They have to add L and T and other confusing letters.
The play was "Bye, Bye Birdie" and it was definitely better than the sucky movie. We had friends in it we have worked with before in past shows so it was nice to see them again. The church preacher was in the show too and he stole the show with physical ad libs. We laughed hard even though we don't know him. Anyway, it was a light and fun time.
Of course, right before the show began mother nature raised her head. Being under the influence of hormones makes it pretty predictable so the headache I have been suffering all weekend is part of it.
Have done jack with midterms but did go out to see what students actually did the midterm. Only about 6 out of 18 students did it. Eep! And this is one bit they cannot turn in late. Oh well! I think probably about half the students who is actually showing up for class are going to bail by the last day to withdraw deadline date.
Thanks: --> to Lia, my sensei, who has inspired me to draw again. I
