Whoa.  What a difference a day makes.  Feeling E-X-C-I-T-E-D about Girl Meat again!  Jono brought in our magical set piece and Rosalie and I are so excited about the possibilities.  While I’m losing the liquid (blood) component for this showing, I’m excited about what we’re gaining in the different ways we can work with the piece.  It is really a work of art.  Tomorrow, I go for the final fittings for the costume.  Wild to collaborate and have it come together.  New level of trust for me, which so far is working out beautifully.  I am knocking wood (three times with my left hand from underneath – I learned that on a bus from a Cuban man years ago).  Emma Rivera, our TD, came in tonight and is very excited about the show.  Nothing feels better than having your tech person be engaged.  They’re probably the toughest crowd in show biz.  Other than the cancer-surviving lesbians I performed for three nights ago.  The accent is also feeling not so hard.  Rosalie, Jen-Scott and I figured out some of the sections we need to cut for this showing so that I don’t go over 30 minutes.  Now, at least, I know what part to memorize.  I’m really hoping I’m as good at memorizing as I always think I am.  This is when it counts.  Lock and load.  Four days till show time.
