so i went to see "fiction" in seattle w/ leopoldo, which itself was quite good and had a lot of complexity & layers to it. but the play was sandwiched between a lot of other events, too:
* going to a birthday party for leopoldo's friend aaron, whose daughter read me the dragonology book
* meeting leopoldo's very cool mother
* brunch at the very busy but tasty portage bay cafe
* walking along the montlake trail, and getting to see the whole drawbridge process from directly underneath the bridge
* exploring all four levels of the act theatre, including finding the one unlocked door to the catwalks
* visiting the new seattle central library (where the entrance to the meeting rooms is like walking down someone's throat)
* picking up tea for leopoldo at post alley
* dinner at the slow service but hip & tasty alibi room
also, we began saturday w/ an audition at the mission theatre which was cold at 8:30 a.m. after rehearsing my line i looked at the side, anyway! and when i heard my voice bounce from the walls of the theatre i thought, "nooooo! that's not how it's supposed to sound!" but by that point, i had said the line and was leaving my well-marked, well-lit spot between the two pieces of blue tape. well, at least the headshot sven made for me was supercool. it made for awkward conversations with leopoldo during the trip though, since he's one of the casting people. :)
