6:14pm

i'm going over to jason's for a bit.
and then i think i will go to bed rrreeeaallly early.

5:10pm

i ate a little can of canned fruit. so that makes me feel a bit better.
i want to snap my fingers and have my house be clean and have my hair not smell like cigarettes.
it's cloudy and coldish today. 57 degrees! fall is on the way. and it seems to be early.
august is usually one of the hottest months.
i'm glad it's cloudy, it feels calmer that way.
i think i will just crochet this hat i was working on that i never did finish in time for the show.
i'm listening to new agey music. maybe i'll take a nap.
i need to refuel myself with food and sleep and calmness and puppy snuggles and jason hugs.
i hope jason has time to be with me tonight.
maybe there is something good to watch on tv tonight.
i need to vedge and snuggle and refuel my body and soul and turn my mind off.
i think i shall be back to normal by tomorrow.
i always feel really drained after i have a show.
but last night after it, i was on cloud 9 of hyperness and love and happiness. but i kept poor jason up way past his bedtime and he had to deal with the aftermath of my drunken happiness and heart bursting with everything and i just wanted to stay up with him all night long and dance in the streets. but he was such a good sport about it. but i feel guilty for being such a spaz and keeping him up way too late.

3:58pm

i think i am just way overstimulated. i don't even know how to wind down.
i put so much energy into these shows. i get myself all wound up.
i'm really antsy today. i just need the vedge but i feel like pacing.
i wish my house was cleaner. i wish i had the energy to type out how the entire show went.
but i don't have the energy to rehash it all. but it did go very very well.
so much better than the last one.
weirdly, all i can think of wanting to do today is crochet because i am still in that mode and cannot snap out of it.
i really need to center and ground myself but i don't know how to go about it.
i haven't eaten much of anything in 2 days but i am not at all hungry.

the only thing i could think of wanting to eat is miso soup but i don't have any.

there is a little place by me that has it and they open at 5:30pm. maybe i will go over there and have some miso soup when they open just to get something in my stomache. i'm sure i'd feel a lot more grounded if i ate something.

 

3:05pm

i still can't shake this nervousness.

i can'twait until i can see the pictures back that fuzztbumblebee took.
and also her husband, P, videotaped the show.

2:38pm

9:41pm

i'll tell the stories behind these pictures later. but 1st i just want to get them up, so these pictures probably won't mean much to you until i can tell you the stories behind them.
i didn't get many pix of me and none of me in my outfit, but lots of other people did, so i'll get those from them.
so much to tell, but now i must sleep more.
i'm so exhausted. i didn't eat anything yesterday,and the day before just a few crackers with hummos. i'm happy, tho, and the show went really well :)


my outfit
as i was
still working on it.

people getting
ready to go on


my stage props
waiting in the kitchen

rehearsals
for various sections
(their outfits are not on)

the set list

we were stuffed
in the basement
in a tiny corner
that seriously
was like 85 degrees.

me before i had my outfit on

elaine (fuzzybumblebee)
and her models
(a zen monk
from japan!
and a 15 year old
cheerleader!)

all of these outfits are
fuzzybumblebee's creations.

rhinestones
i put on elaine's back
that it is an upside
down cross was
unintentional.

i did the make up on them
and drew these on their arms

i wish they had their
cool hats on in this picture!

we were very crowded

dj gramann
and a stripper comic

finally, a pic of him
in his hat
(by fuzzybumblebee),
but he had
taken the make up off
because it was
the end of the night
