but it's not the end

Okay, trying this again. I had internet issues halfway through writing this post and lost it all, so now I'm a little annoyed. Anyway, we'll try to cover the important things. This afternoon will be the final performance of Crazy For You. It's been a great time. And so, I've compiled a top ten list of great moments during the run of the show.

10. Clint flubbing his final spoken line during rehearsal (two days in a row) and Kim threatening to shoot him on the spot if he did it again.

9. Mike playing rimshots after the jokes Tuesday night.

8. Julie dancing in the sound booth, distracting both actors and musicians.

7. Jordan's death scene and various last words: "Tell Polly I love her", "I see the light--it's beautiful", "Rosebud"

6. Orchestrating a fanfare for Jeff's entrance into the auditorium, and having his shake his baton at us. ("Get your Jeff on." -Seth)

5. Adam being flipped by a girl half his size and nearly falling into the pit--every night.

4. Ricky Mooney

3. Finding flowers on all of our chairs in the pit before Friday's show.

2. The whole orchestra laughing hysterically during a serious spot in our final rehearsal because Jeff put on his parka, zipped it up to his nose and directed a song that way.

1. Jon breaking the steps down into the pit Saturday night, causing the house to be opened late so it could be fixed.

And now I've wasted enough time and really ought to get back to my homework. After the show this afternoon I'll be rocking out to Audio Adrenaline at their last show ever in South Dakota. Woot!

Have an amazing time at the show!! You'll love it, I'm sure.

It sounds like I've missed some pretty brilliant moments, but then again, I've been experiencing some amazing ones here. So I guess it all evens out!

Love you!
