Jesus Christ. It's not even a special occasion.

'Twas the night before Sunday
And all through the quad
The drunks were stirring out in a squad
The liquor was poured on the bar with such care
In hopes that their beer goggles soon would be there
The drunkards were naked in each other's beds
With visions of Meier danced in their heads
While Heather in her PJs and I in the nude
Made jokes in our beds that weren't even lewd
When up on the roof there arose such a clatter
"What's that I hear? I think that's a shatter!"
Away to the window, yes, I did flash
When dressed in the nude you hardly can clash
When what to our wandering eyes should appear
But some drunken assholes with bottles of beer
One stood by the bushes and took out his dick
And said in a moment "I MUST BE ST. NICK!"
More rapid than cattle coming back to the ranch
The drunkards they stumbled right into the Branch
"Now, Yager. Now, Captain. Now, Bud light and Pucker.
On Coors Light, On Freeze Pops, On Smirnoff and Nonster!
Now hide your fake before the cops come to call
And dash away, dash away, dash away all!"
As the hours go by, oh how time flies
Now it's time for last call, so say your goodbyes
So back to their dorms the drunkards they flew
With a gut full of beer, and lost dignity, too
And then, in a tinkling, I heard from the door
The sound of a drunk courting the floor
As I drew in my hand the Ouiji Board around
Down the chimney Evil God came with a bound
He said "campus is drunk. I feel your pain.
But because you disturbed me, I'll make it rain."
In the dorm room next door, I heard a bed squeek
And thought "Jesus Christ, guys. I'm trying to sleep."
-Heather and Kayleigh (mostly Kayleigh)

So anyway, campus is particularly drunk and obnoxious (aka angry) tonight. We don't have a problem with drunkenness, obviously...but people are freaking insane. And a lot of them are angrily yelling in the campus center.

Finally, a coherent entry

Blake is hiding. Gabe looks like a cat. Matt has some serious air and I love it. So does Andrew.

I'm really sad. I hate to see Spring Awakening close. I absolutely hate it. It sucks. SA was my comfort when I heard about RENT..."oh, well, SA will be there for awhile." Or not. As Kayleigh said, "now we need a new show." It completely destroys my plans of seeing it on a nightly basis when I'm in NYC. I hate to see a show that's actually a good, legitimate, meaningful piece of theater with a real, relevant message go when shows like The Lion King, The Little Mermaid, Mamma Mia!, and Mary Poppins are still going strong. But shows like SA don't appeal to families and don't appeal to non-theatre going theatre goers (if that makes sense...I think it does), and I think that's what brought it down. And its fanbase is comprised of poor young kids who would love to see it all the time but frankly don't have the money, like me. I will miss the show dearly, but by the time it closes, I'll have seen it 5 times (6 with the tour, 7 if Kayleigh and I go down during xmas break with Mariah), and that's way more than a lot of people who love the show, and I'm really thankful for that.

All that being said, HOLY SHIT WE'RE GOING TO THE LAST PERFORMANCE! Not that I want to wish the show away, but I'm so freaking excited. The energy in that theater is going to be like nothing I've ever seen in my life. I know that's how it was with Jon and Lea's last, and this is so much more than that. It's already sold out for Christ's sake. And the stage door? Oh my god. I'm actually kind of glad we're in the back because we can sneak out really easily. My sister is awesome and my hero.




I'll get through this. There will be other shows, I know there will. There will be other casts to follow, other cast recordings to memorize, other actors to stalk in Times Square (or Blake could do a new show, and I can continue to stalk him, because he'll always be my husband...esp according to the Ouiji Board last night).




And just for fun...

This is my favorite part of the set.

Not acceptable.

Things I've Learned Today

1. I am a racist because I'm not voting for Obama. Furthermore, every Republican gathering is reminiscent of KKK meeting. That being said, I'm super excited for my klan meeting on Thursday night.

2. The Republican establishment did not allow John McCain to nominate Joe Lieberman because he's Jewish. It doesn't have anything to do with the fact that he's A DEMOCRAT, and McCain needed to appeal to his base (i.e. Conservatives).

3. Secretary of Naps is a Cabinet position, and one I think I should aspire to.

LEAVES







More to come after we go get a rake and make a big pile.

Oh. My. God.

Spamalot is closing January 18th. I seriously can't deal with this. Spring Awakening, don't leave me.

In other news, I have to go do a lit drop in precisely 1 hour and 5 minutes, and I REALLY don't want to. But Douchebag isn't going. That being said, neither is Lauren, and I don't like that.

The Secret Life of Bees was amazing, ps.

Things

Here's me and my little buddy, who is pretty much one of the two cutest things I've ever seen in my entire life. Those eyes! I feel like I'm excluding someone, but someone wouldn't sit still enough for me to take a picture of them :-) He's still my boy though, and I had a good time with those guys.
These are the people I don't like. Okay, really, I just don't like the tall guy. But as Jeremy said when he put this picture on facebook, "note: person on the far right=my favorite Republican, ever." To which I responded "note: person taking the picture=my hero." Seriously though, Jeremy was the silver lining during a really shitty night. But George Winner was amazing during the debate, and I probably made it on the news. Good thing that was before the crying.
My email has been down. I can get into my inbox but can't send anything, so Keena, the phone number change is not acceptable. You've had the same number for years, and my brain is no shape to process any new information this week. Not okay.
TGIFriday. Seriously. This was a short week but probably one of the busiest, most stressful weeks EVER. I got a whopping 4 hours of sleep Wednesday night between being upset about the debate situation and worrying about the (count them) TWO midterms and ONE paper on Thursday.
I have to lit drop tomorrow, but that's alright because Mr. Asshole isn't coming. Oh, and wtf is with the "I don't send out minutes, I only send out meeting reminders." Um, no, secretaries send out minutes too. Ugh. Kiss my ass. Why is it that Jeremy and I are the only cool people in College Republicans and College Dems combined? We're starting our own club, we decided.
And, I got new shoes yesterday. The pink graffittied Chucks may need to be retired, which is super sad, but I guess it happens.
Spring Awakening again on November 8th, onstage, next to my boy. And now we have matching shoes, so that's exciting.

Good News Bears (Or Pears)

I can't believe it.

SENIOR PICTURE!And I'll keep my bio a surprise, but I have the best quote ever.

Someday, girl, I don't know when, we're gonna get to that place where we really wanna go, and we'll walk in the sun. But 'til then, baby, we were born to run."


And ugh, Hairspray is closing in January. Bad news bears.

I'm excited for Dad and Sara to come, and for my induction, and for my sleepover with Matthew and Joey next week.
