Sheesh. What a whiner I am. Honestly. I just read that last post of mine and whine, whine, whine. Yeah, like anyone I can be pretty hard on myself sometimes but that rant right down there below...well, that is just me WALLOWING IN SELF PITY!
I'm over it know. (You can all breathe easier, I'm sure.)
So I have one more day of work this week. Then I have a four day weekend. And smack dab in the middle of the weekend, I have a reunion with some people from my college days. I can't wait. Lemme tell ya about these folks.
Scott - Scott has been one of my best friends for a long time. In fact, we shared an apartment in Chicago when we first graduated. We were SO naive and on our own in Chicago. Our first apartment did not have heat. Oh, it had the capability to have heat but we were just completely unaware that the meter for the gas company had been stolen. We sat there, in our cold living room, covered in blankets and wondering why we didn't seem to have heat. We figured it out...eventually. Took about a week though.
Patty - Lordy, what can I say about Patty! We actually went to high school together and then ended up at university together. We have laughed harder than any two people have a right to in our lifetime. I have a really funny story involving me and Patty, some cheeseburgers at Finney's West eaten between the matinee and evening shows, flatulence and Scott entering the scene in the aftermath. I won't give any more detail than that. You figure it out!
Becky (now calling herslef Rebecca, la de dah!) - oh so many shows together! Becky was always the young ingenue to my curmudgeonly type characters. She had a light and air about her and a voice that was out of this world! She's flying all the way in from Connecticut for this shindig!
Andy (now known as Drew) - Andy is an actor's actor. Droll, funny, and often irreverant. He was one of my favorite people ever. I recall a party at his apartment. He says, "You don't have to bring anything. I made a ham!" This was an event. Andy never had any food at his parties. SO we get there...and he has a ham. Just a ham. Sitting in the middle of his table. With a knife in it. Needless to say, we ran out and got other stuff to eat and drink to go WITH the ham. What a doof!
Anyway, can't wait to see them on Sunday! I already know it's going to be a blast and my sides will hurt from laughing all day long.
