another night at the theatre? yeah!

had a great time Sat at the Rep seeing Misalliance. it was better and funnier than i expected and the almost three hours pretty much flew by. i feel inspired to look back at Shaw again; this one had some really pithy lines, and of course i can't remember them (that's what i keep C for). my companions were in high spirits, sleep deprived or not. i was really happy to turn heads in the tie skirt again, and scifigal and frabjousdave were looking pretty fine themselves.

the set had this wacked out house that was in forced perspective and playhouse sized, but everyone walked in and out of it (whole walls were doors) as if it was full sized. and i still don't know what was up with the rabbit holes. still, there was some great stuff about empire and what philanthropy does for society, along with the usual old men chasing young women who happen to be more brazen than pure. pretty solid ensemble work, good timing, and general avoidance of mugging (no Larry Ballard this time). a good waste of an evening.

C caught up with us at McMenamins, where we got to hang out for quite a long time before anyone noticed us. next time i need a pleasant warm place to sit for free, i'll remember that. there was a lot of pointing and gesturing and i hope the drivers got home safe between lack of sleep and presence of alcohol. we came home and failed to go to sleep for a few hours more.

yay standard time.

it's my turn to make dinner.
