The voicemail is back up at work. Sorta.
You see, they ended up using a tape backup that they are slowly updating, but the tape backup is about a year old and almost no-one is at the same extension that they were at a year ago, and so the voicemail is announcing the names of people who haven't worked there in yonks, not to mention all of the new numbers that have been added.

And that's not even mentioning the passwords...

It was an absolutely stunning day yesterday. 82º, practically no humidity, gorgeous.

And I met Amanda!

Pretty majorly cool, huh? She and Jeff dropped by my work and picked me up for lunch (not to mention picking up the check for lunch, something that has practically never happened before), and we hung out and chatted and she gave me Australian candy and stuff, and we had a swell time.

One funny thing, though. Go here and try and guess what colour her hair is. I'll wait.

Both Melody and I thought from that photo that she is a blond, but it's dark! Well, dark with grey streaks, but not a smitch of blond. It was sort of like when I met David and he said "Didn't you say you were short?"

Then I had rehearsal for my show, and did I have my lines down?
Well, mostly.

I crammed them into my unwilling skull, and though I did have to call line sometimes, I mostly had them, and next rehearsal they will be solid.

I figured out why I am having such difficulty in learning them. It's because it's too soon! We open in a week and a couple of days, so I certainly should be off-book, but all my brain knows is that it's only the fourth rehearsal, and it's not used to having to learn them until it's had a few more rehearsals with script in hand. But what with Cynthia performing in a show and rehearsing a whole 'nother show, her time is limited, let alone the actor's annoying schedules, so we have rehearsed exactly as much as we could.

I'm trying to tell my brain this, but it's not buyin' it.

Heard last night on The Daily Show:

"The Rolling Stones are recording a new album! They are trying to think of a title, and the current front-runner is 'Hey You, Get Off My Lawn!'"
