Opening night for Radio TBS went really well. Our biggest problem was that our starting pistol did not go off, but it was okay, the gun itself got the point across...plus, there were a lot of old people...and it probably would have given them heart-attacks.

I was very very nervous... I am shook A LOT... my biggest problem was trying not to laugh... I did okay... but I have bite marks and white and dark red chunks on the inside of my cheeks from biting them so hard...

After the show, Mike, Elicia and Wanda out asst to the SM's and I headed to Brewbakers... however, the Garden Street Plaza is 2 doors down, and they were holding the Dia-De-Los-Muertos festival, or 'Day of the Dead' and Carole was running the entrance and told the guy to stamp our hands and let us in.... so we stayed there instead of going to Brewbakers. It was so neat, it's like a Mexican Festival type thing, so there was lots of corona and mexican food... we had tacos...and then Elicia and Mike made their way up to the dance floor for a slow song... after that song Mike came back and I ran up to dance with Elicia and Carole and several others. It was a lot of fun considering we were all so tired... though, I think most of the people were drunk... the tequila was really strong. I did not try it, but I did smell it, augh, they even said it tasted awful...Okay then DUH why the hell are you drinking it then? Don't answer that...

Today my mom and dad took a private jet to Vegas with some friends to see the Jimmy Buffett concert... I am totally jealous.

This morning I met with my English teacher at starbucks to discuss my research paper... then I ate and went to the SPCA off-site to help set...but when I got there they were already set up so I only stayed for an hour.... then I went home... and sat down at the computer to start my paper...or continue what I had rather... but the next thing I remember is waking up laying on the couch with my cat lying next to me...so I got up and looked at the clock...it was about 1:15pm... so I got up and went to my bed and decided to lay down for a little longer... well, I did not expect to 'nap' for another 5 1/2 hours!!! The next thing I know Dakota, my dog, was nudging my arm with her nose... my first impulse was to roll over to the middle of my bed, but instead I sat up and looked at her... then I noticed the clock... 6:44PM... OH shyt!!! So much for my 5:30pm call!!

So, I got up, put on my matching sweatjacket and my shoes and headed down to the theatre...my goodness did I... or do I feel like crap! My stomach felt like it was in knots, and my head hurt and my insides were all shuddery, and my face was red hot and I felt like I could spit fire.... I think it might be a kidney infection....either that or I just caught a bug.... either way... I just hope I feel better by tomarrow...

When I got there the director was outside and said they were getting worried... I really don't do that much...and I feel bad when people say thanks for what I'm doing...because I really do not do that much...I have a very very minimal role and I change a few sets...

When I walked into the greenroom I went and put my makeup on and then went into the dressing room and changed and sat there for awhile... There are 2 dressing rooms, and the one I was in, the smaller of the two, I share with only 2 other actors: Elicia and Debbie W. I like Debbie, she's SO nice, I really like working with her. After I changed I sat on the couch and she came in to change... she talked to me and asked me what was wrong and I told her I did not feel well, etc, etc, and she felt my head and said I deffinetely had a temp... Oh well, the show must go on.... then she went out and people started asking where I was and stuff and she told them... They were talking about me like I wasn't around....then Elicia came back and started asking questions.... I really did not want to talk...and so she told me if I wanted asprin is was right next to me in her bag... though, I did have my own in my bag.... She did offer to find someone else to do my set changes, but the whole point of my doing them is because no one else could... I told her it was my job, and I would do it reguardless....

I didn't feel well through the entire show.... and having to eat in every scene did NOT help... I am sure the director will metion it tomarrow...or maybe not...if she knows I didn't feel good... better to not eat much than to shovel it and throw it up.... blah...

Even sitting here now I feel kinda sick...and tired...yet I can't seem to sleep....

Home alone...kinda freaks me out...but I have my dogs...and the doors are locked... Dakota is good about letting me know when people are outside our house...and sometimes when there are people outside period.

From what I have heard the plan for after the show tomarrow is to go to one of the actors houses and have a BBQ...spouses invited too....or something like that... I really like all the people I work with... but it's so akward....they are all old enough to be my parents, and some are old enough to be my grandparents... and sometimes they treat me like that... I mean yea, I guess it is nice to be noticed because your the younin'... but not all that often... It's always, "We gotta look out for the youngins' " well, I hate that, treat me like an adult, I am not your normal teen, my mind is a lot more mature than a typical teenager and I would like the respect I deserve. Don't get me wrong, I do get respect especailyl since I am pulling double duty as co-SM and acting...but sometimes the youngin' thing comes in at the wrong time...

You Are 28 Years Old

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe. 13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world. 20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences. 30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more! 40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

Well, I am gonna try to go to sleep....

Tomarrows show is at 2pm... well, technically 3pm because of the time change... 12:30 call... we'll see if I make it this time....

And don't forget, "Fall back" time change!!! 2 nite!!!
