2JM: I am glad to hear that your heart “palpitations” have started to decline. Maybe the iron did do the trick for you. I will keep praying since you have another Dr.’s appointment coming up.

That’s nice that your husband could get the time off to watch the kids for you. What is he studying? I am going to school as well so I can understand what life must be like for him, having to juggle work, school, family, and whatever else is going on in your life.

Carton: Sorry to hear about the first act blues you had to endure for both nights, but it does sound like the audience enjoyed the productions anyway.

As far as getting the final production to be faithful to your work, I hear that Peter Jackson may be a good one to bring on board to help translate your vision. ;^)

So what’s next?

What's that I see in the distance?

It looks kind of shiny.

Now that we're getting closer, it is starting to look kind of round.

Is that writing I see on it?

-Kevin

[ksen]

I think so.

I guess I'll go take a look.

My hubby is an environmental monitoring technician. He analyzes storm water for pollution. He just has his bachelor's degree, and is working on his Environmental Science masters. He usually only takes one class at a time, because it's so hard on the rest of us. But now the boys are getting older and easier to care for alone, I might suggest he take 2 classes...get this over with!

He made a 97 on his last test. Environmental Geology.

I have no trouble getting my vision translated... but performed. The little ones were funny... they knew something wasn't right, they just didn't know what. When the older ones forgot 6 pages, I could feed a line to an actor, pick up the 6 pages, then fast forward.

Again, the main thing is not knowing their lines. This play is a farce... and that means there is timing. When one actor doesn't know, it skips or worse drags... like a tape in a tape player... you know it is dragging and it upsets your rhythm. Same thing with a play. The audience knows it is dragging... and it drags because not only do you have to feed lines, but you have to convince the actor on stage it really is their line so any momentum is lost has to be rebuilt then is lost again.

In Act Two, both classes performed it well. The teen agers were nearly flawless.
