Well, last night's show was, as I said to the actors "Interesting in places, but good!" Of course, sometimes as it was going on the word in my head was "appalling!" but there was some good stuff, especially from Joanie, who was the star of the show last night.

Usually it's Tracy and Wende's show, but they (and everyone else were a little off) and everything Joanie did or said was golden. She even got a round on an exit!

One actor bizarrely came in early on one entrance (where he runs in says two lines and leaves), then rather than coming in again at the proper spot, didn't, the didn't again on the next page!

Cliff could have just said his next line after the first missed exit, but he just sort of sat there, so Wende said "Do you have anything to say to me?" and Cliff said "No, I don't!"

Guess who does improv and who doesn't?

So Wende wrenched her whole next speech around and got them back on track, but then when the entrance missing actor missed the next entrance, they sort of sat there and then Cliff said "Gee, I sure hope that Happy doesn't come on now and say that my horse is ready!"

I was sort of watching with interest from the booth thinking "I wonder how they're getting out of this one?"

Everyone lived but I'm glad that Second Night is over, and we have survived the Second Night Curse.

Hey, why didn't anyone tell me that it's Shark Week?

I mean, I know that Pamie mentioned it and Ian mentioned it (and who knows who else, I'm appallingly behind on almost everyone's journal), but somehow I didn't realize that it meant that this week is Shark Week!

Well, I guess it'll have to be Shark Couple of Days for me...

Heard on Conan O'Brian last night, re the Dalai Lama's appearance at the Beacon this week, "It's difficult to meditate in New York, because every couple of minutes you have to stop and tell someone to shut their freakin' pie hole!"

Too true...

Goodnight, Jennifer.

Look after yourself, Clarissa, because though One Fat Lady isn't as good as Two, it's certainly better than None.
