DAY 5: Another single performance day. I spent the day sleeping and didn�t have to be at the theater until 6:30 again. After the show, there was supposed to be a party at the �Non-Eq� house. When I got there, most of the cast members had gone to sleep. There were a few of us who stayed up, but they didn�t want to bother the �sleepers� so we went to a �titty bar�!
The Odyssey was�an interesting place. It�s never been a place that I ever wanted to go to before. And now that I�ve been there, I�ll never go back. I�ve seen pretty women�I�ve even seen pretty naked women�.The Odyssey has none of this. The Odyssey has ugly hags who strip and obviously don�t enjoy it AND don�t want to be there.
We went because one of the actors and one of the lesbian actresses wanted to go. It was a waste of money�and as I told Randy, our Nicely Nicely Johnson, a waste of my time, unfortunately. The music was so loud, you couldn�t talk. There was nothing but soda pop and water to drink and the women were so ugly, I wanted to scream at them to put their clothes back on! We couldn�t have been there for more than 30 minutes when we all, en masse, decided it was time to leave.
We got back to the Non-Eq� house and I went to go home, but the young cast was still up on their front porch next door. The �kids� that were still awake were on the front porch just chit-chattin�, smoking� and drinkin�. I shared a Caecilian Kiss with those around�Antonio, Lina and Paul. We enjoyed it very much!
I hung out for a little bit. After imbibing with the porch crew, I went into the house and met HIM.
(For this tale, we�ll call HIM Gregory to keep his name protected. You notice I didn�t say keep the innocent protected?...Yeah, well�;))
Gregory was beautiful. He�s a very sweet man (yes, he was actually close to my age, bless him!) with a wonderful talent for dancing, singing and acting (I learned later�and that�s not to mention that he gives the best hugs a girl can get!
I sat and watched the telly with Gregory and a few others. Gregory fell asleep on the couch across from me and I decided to leave.
DAY 6/7: Two show day once a gain and then closing tonight. As much as I�ll miss John, I�m really glad this show is over. The �young� cast seems to be much more fun-loving and caring. Those that I enjoyed hanging with, I have their email addresses�everyone else�dah!
After the show and before strike, lighting crew was given until 4 am to rest, relax and/or get some sleep. So, between 11pm and 12am, I went down to the City Caf� (a little whole in the wall �fancy� restaurant in the basement of the theater building) and hung out with those I had hung out with the night before. Once it hit midnight, I climbed to my tower and slept on my pallet of two HUGE winter sleeping bags and four piano packing blankets. Next thing I knew, I was being (rather rudely) awakened by Danny yelling in the �god� mike�off to work I go!
