So thanksgiving was nice, I got to sleep in for the first time in a while. It was a little disturbing at first that I couldn't stop feeling like there was someplace I was supposed to be, or something I should be doing. We chilled out at the lodge get together on housing for a time, and sampled some of joel's famous cranberry sauce- It lived up to the reputation, and cranberry sauce is one of my favorite parts of the whole deal. We went over to Boni and Carley's after that, and it was a very nice enviroment.. we ate late and everyone was relaxing, some napping with the cat, some pie, a little bit more napping, a board game, lots of laughs.. it was a really good time.. It felt like we were another step closer to being big kids. To end the night I went downtown and saw rent. It was funny because I thought it might be sold out, since it was opening/thanksgiving but it was practically empty aside from the poeple I was with. So all in all, a good thanksgiving.
King Island meanwhile is closer and closer to opening, we're almost there! Today we had the full orchestra in the space, as well as the adult chorus, the youth chorus and the principals. So many people!! It can be overwhelming to deal with at times, but it's also really exciting.. Everyone is sounding great, and it was even cooler to have the music backing them today. Also, The Principals put on their full costumes- it was wonderful.. they range from the really cute to the really funny. Some overalls, some boots, some cosby sweaters. Anyway, I took a couple of pictures and so here they appear. I need to take some more tomorrow, this is such an awesome production I need to document it....... I have to say, singing along to myself today, I realized- I came in with doubts about the story and the music, and at this point it's not just being saturated with the show- I'm actually sold on it. I love the music, I love the story, I'm actually affected by it... and that's a good thing.
