Namaste

Yoga=awesome. But I doubt anyone in my class would appreciate me taking a picture in class. Therefore, this is my yoga mat (that's part of a butterfly you see there) in my Trader Joe's bag, my iPod blasting out some Weezer goodness, and part of my velour clad thigh. We're all driving home from the gym.

Upbraiding

Roving Imp rehearsal tonight. This is John P., John R., Julie, and myself rehearsing "hoedown" which is a musical game. Nifer was kind enough to take this for me. We had a really fantastic rehearsal, it was just the five of us, and we're really becoming a tight knit group. We had a few really interesting scenes with fun wordplay and memorable characters. Awesome. It's great to end the rehearsal week on such a high. I braided my hair today for the first time in like three years, it was pretty cool. I used to wear my hair like that a lot when I was a teenager, so every time I looked in the mirror I was like, "Why hello there, high school Jessica sans the angst!"

So....Hypothetically....

Hype 7 rehearsal. Tonight's practice was in Lawrence, at KU. KU always sticks us in the oddest rooms, seriously. This one was really cool because it looked exactly like the tavern from Beauty and the Beast, without the horrid animal heads on the walls and swaggering egotistical "it" guy. This is a picture of us trying out our very first longform, and Joe actually came up with the idea for the format all on his own! Too freakin' cool. This is a scene in which we were doing a reality show with five people living in a house together with thirty cats. I believe we're sitting around trying to decide who to vote out next or something to that effect. Sitting up, left to right it's me, Tiffany, Joe, Nifer, and Bryan. It ended up being really really good and tied together so well. Go Hype! On the way back to the garage Nifer and I forgot which level had the bridge to the parking garage and literally went to every floor trying to find it before realizing there was a map on the back of the elevator and on level 2 it said, "bridge to parking garage." Uh durrr! The picture of us pointing at the map was a very close second to this one. Oh! Jason and I also went out looking for houses today, and found THE ONE. It's perfect. I hope we get it! I'm so excited!

Pick a nick

Since I've been sewing my skirt the table has been a huge mess, since I haven't got anywhere to put my sewing machine. Tonight I didn't feel like clearing it off, so we had a picnic on the floor. It was pretty fun, we had veggie fajitas. Right after dinner I went to Antiprov rehearsal. It was a great rehearsal, if lower energy than usual due to all of us being sick (me and Joe are getting better, Scott is getting sicker) it was our last rehearsal just the three of us unless we win Thunderdome next week. I'm so very nervous.

Follow, follow, follow, follow...

The girls have a regular activity on Sunday evenings, so Jason and I always take the opportunity to get out and about, just the two of us. Today we went out for coffee at Scooters, then we walked around Legends for a while. I got a new pair of Chucks from the Converse store and some new jeans, which I've been needing. This is me and Jason following the yellow (yeah, it's just dark outside) brick road. And for all you guys out there, that's what it looks like if you look down while wearing a skirt...if you had girly legs like me. 'Cause I'm a girl and stuff. Um...yeah, just in case you've ever wondered. *blush*

Turkey pops

I designed a skirt a while back and I'm finally getting around to sewing it. I'm so looking forward to wearing the finished product. I'm sick right now, horrid sore throat and stuffy nose. We did a special show for The Roving Imp tonight and I spent the entire time on stage thinking, "Heh heh, she just said something. I'm supposed to respond now. Shoes!" Luckilly I've been assured I was quite funny. I'm going to go ahead and believe that, it's nice and convenient for me. I was going to post a picture from the Imp, Nifer was standing directly under the word "Imp" that's painted on the wall, and she's quite a short individual so it looked like a label and was funny, but I forgot to bring my camera to the theater. Oh well, next time.

Because I want it all

Today I went to Lawrence, had lunch with Jen and her friend whose name escapes me right now. Thai food, mmmm. After lunch I went downtown and hit Urban Outfitters and Hobbs, which is a funky local shop that reminds me a bunch of Greenwich Village. I bought a card for a friend and proceeded across the street to Starbucks. I set my "enriched flour"bag down on the counter and the girl said, "Ah, you've been to Hobbs." "Yup, sure have!" "Last time I went in there I got a charcoal bag. It even said 'do not light grill inside.' All day long people were asking me why I had charcoal and was I going to have a barbeque?" It was pretty funny. This evening Jason and I played Monopoly with the girls. I was going to post that picture, but I didn't want to explain that I got a flour bag from a shop and have people going, "Nurr?" Anyhow, it was the "Horse Lover's Edition" that Leigha got for Christmas. It's so strange playing on a Monopoly set that's brand new. Monopoly is one of those games that's supposed to have dog eared pieces and is missing Oriental Avenue. After a while I drew a card from the pile that said I won $50 and said, "Oh, crap, I drew the 'you lose' card." I don't like playing for longer than half an hour, after that it's just not fun anymore.
