Shopping trip took way longer than I expected. Not only that, the fabric store (which was my number one reason for going into Granby) wasn't even open today so I'm probably gonna have to skip my lunch break AGAIN tomorrow to go buy ribbon for the maypole. That's annoying. However, I managed to find a really fantastic oil can in an antique store that I spent too much money on. I've finally found reason to be excited for all shook up. It's an oil can. I also bought a jug for Brigadoon and went to the market. Three quarters of what I paid was spent on beef jerky and beer. I feel like a dude.

Speaking of which, I slipped and fell getting out of the back of the truck when I was bringing some props over from the shop to the theater and banged up my leg pretty well. I have a zillion bruises all over my body, I look like I'm dating someone who has a habit of pushing me down stairs. Fantastic.

Anyway, two packages came for me today. Now, I've been getting packages pretty frequently because I ordered things for the shows. One of the packages contained a bobby whistle for pirates which was super exciting because now I have a new toy to annoy everyone with. But, says I, what could the other package possible contain? I wasn't expecting any more. Well, friends, let me tell you that I got the most AWESOME care package from the most AWESOME sister someone could ask for. Lisa is fantastic. I now have a fun wooley mammoth pez dispenser, some balloons for making fun animals, a Jonas Brothers lunch box, two colors of nail polish, eyeliner, silly string, silly puddy, a t-shirt to help fight against malaria, and the most adorable purple dress that I am absolutely in love with. Thanks sister!

Dress rehearsal for Brigadoon was a bit hectic, but I'm going to try and refrain from saying too much because I'm fully confident that the show will be fantastic when we open on Friday and that's the most important thing. I will say that I'm a bit sad I don't know how to make my hair prettier. I have a beautiful dress for scene changes, but my hair in comparison with the other ladies makes me look like the town wench or something who lives under a bridge and only comes out to move benches and tree stumps.

FINALLY, after dress, a number of us watched Mommy Dearest tonight in the cabin that seven people live in. I've seen it before, but I think it was better with a group. I'm a little bit arfraid though that we may start something that will end up as a war of who can beat each other hardest with wire hangers.
