Okay, rehearsal last night until 11pm, then went home and watched THE AMAZING RACE which, as always, WAS Amazing. (Okay, I’m hooked.)

Then, however, could not sleep a wink. Thinking about the play – rehearsal was good, but not what I wanted it to be: I wanted to do scenework and a run thru, but because we were onstage for the first time, and it was a big change from the rehearsal space, we wound up spending the whole rehearsal running and cleaning transitions and a handful of staging moments inside scenes. SO, although it was a useful day, I’m looking forward to a runthru tonight to see how it goes. Because of not being able to get it out of my head, though, I was up tossing and turning a lot. Also, got up early with my son. Then came into the University to grade the projects I had to return, and teach. Now I’m going to eat and prep for tonights rehearsal, which is in a couple of hours. Also, must write the “Director’s notes” for the program, which I hate because I never like the way they sound, but I’m gonna get them done anyway.

The cast in this show is great, by the way. Everyone is working hard, great attitude. The atmosphere is very nice for bringing this piece to life.

Okay, off to do that. Oh, my Tigers lost again last night. *sigh* Our new super-bullpen gave up the tying run and losing run in the 8th and 9th innings. Let’s hope that stops soon.
