How was your weekend??? It was just fine here, the weather has made everyone happy, we got some storms around 4 this morning so the cats are clean and the outside is fresh! Ahhhhh! Don’t get me wrong. I’ve lived in this state long enough to know not to bust out the flip flops just yet. We still have about 5 or 6 weeks of it left, but whatever. We get these intermittent doses that keep us alive and I’ll take everyone of them!
The week finished up nice and busy for me. Also a factor in my happy mental state. The redhead and I went up to Guthrie for a play and had just a great night. When we got there, three of our other friends showed up so we all hung out and were funny together. The girl we went to see that was in the play met up with us after for more laughs and a drink or two. It was fabulous!
Yesterday was another good one for me. I overslept so did not get to inspect the other church I wanted to, however I watched a little GodTV and listened to words that hit the target and carried me thru, so it was ok! I had play committee meeting and we SELECTED OUR 2010 SEASON!!!…all but one show. We are still STILL hung up on a show that will serve as our student matinee. GAH. We cannot scrap this idea because we get grant money from the state arts as well as the fact that we are courting our future audiences! There’s a lot tied into this so we have to figure it out. In the past, we’ve done Picnic (classic piece/author) The Chosen (historical) this year its my show dealing with civil rights…we walk the line of overdone (Anne Frank) poorly done elsewhere (Shakespeare) dried up and boring (check out the reading lists for high schools) and dang it. We are stuck. We’re taking two weeks to look around, grab scripts and read…someone suggested Copenhagen, or Frost/Nixon, or Rock & Roll by Stoppard, and those are great suggestions but who knows if we can do them. Everybody send any suggestions if you have them!
I’m meeting with my re-fi guy at 11 today, then home for some tidying up, perhaps a bit of laundry. I have about 4 dollars to my name, which could get me into the cheap afternoon movie should I choose…who knows where the day will take me. Tonight is my first read-thru/rehearsal with the cast. I’m super excited. Details on that later!
Happy Monday everyone! MUAH!

I’ve seen Picnic several times and every time I see it, I decide that I just don’t care for that story. But every time it’s on TCM I watch because I like the actors in it. I like the sound of your selection the best. Glad you had a wonderful Saturday night!
