Lord, I slept until 2p this afternoon, that was eleven hours of sleep. I guess that "allergies waking me up after three hours" thing is well over. On the other hand, I woke up with my period, so that might have had something to do with it as well.

I figured out the key, I need to take two 24 hour pills. Two 24 hour pills=one 12 hour pill. The math doesn't seem to make sense, but nothing does when you are talking about allergies.

So the show opened last night.

I was very late, getting there at 6.40p instead of 6p because of the awful traffic. It wasn't still raining when I left, but the nightmare traffic must have been due to the fact that everyone was staying home until it was over, then they all poured out at the same time.

I wasn't the only one who was late, however. We started the show 40 minutes late, because an actress wasn't there, due to that same traffic. Now, starting a show that late is shameful and dreadful and horrid, but if it had to happen, this was the perfect night for it to happen.

First of all, the 9p show was moved to 9.30p, not because of the lateness, but officially, on the flyer and everything, because they thought that the first show would be long enough to make that viable, but afterwards they found out that the 7p show was only an hour and a half long. Therefor, the 9.30p show started on time even with the 7p show starting so late.

Secondly, the 9.30p show was by the same director and with some of the same cast, so they weren't inconveniencing another group. Nor were they inconveniencing the audience, since most of them were staying for both shows, and they got out at exactly the same time as they would have if we started on time.

And lastly, two of the four audience members who weren't staying for both shows got there at 7.30p, having been caught in the Evil Traffic From Hell themselves, so they neither missed the beginning of the show nor did they sit around for an extra half an hour waiting for it to start.

So basically, it's awful and stupid and unprofessional to start a show 40 minutes late, but if you have to, these were the best circumstances for it to occur.

Quit dwelling on what you think deserve and focus on all the goodies you're actually getting. The grass isn't always greener, and you're sitting a lot prettier than you think.

Sometimes I think that I just want to go away somewhere else and start over. Wouldn't that be great?
