plumtreeblossomThis was just a great, great weekend. It kicked off with The Slutcracker, which I've already posted about, but it deserves a another shout out because it ROCKED and was the talk of the town all weekend, and ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
beowabbit grabbed surrealestate and went back for a second helping last night.
Saturday I had sweetie time and breakfast with my honeywuzzle in the morning, and the evening brought a fabulous annual party hosted by the elegantly rakishmajes and Co. That one has become a favorite of mine. The lace-up front of my black party dress isn't, um, fitting the same as it usually does (I do need to get to the gym), but nobody complained.
A huge treat came on Sunday, whenbeowabbit and I and attended and participated in a T@F one-act play reading. I had the honor of having my own play read by the talented gilana, eclecticavatar, and Andy L. (does he have an LJ?). That was completely thrilling, and I even felt nervous flutters beforehand, but it seemed to go over generally well. beowabbit and I were also paired to read a different play, and though I don't think I'm allowed to discuss play details, I'm proud to say I have now voiced a character named "Squishy." Oh happy Dagger! ;-)
The only thing not perfect about the weekend was my on-and-off bad back, but that's become a regular part of life and I try not to let it spoil things. And indeed, it didn't. I could use many more weekends like this.
