So, my summer has been like this:
Get up before dawn, 11-20 mile bike ride. Nap. Workout DVD. Shower. Lots of sitting on my ass, reading. Rehearsals in the evening. Sleep. Sometimes I have lunch with Rich, sometimes dinner.
Rehearsals are going well. I have a pretty good cast, but trying to convince them I'm right is difficult sometimes. Shakespeare is difficult, but my cast is finally understanding what they're saying. In their comfort level, however, they're forgetting that they need to make sense to the audience, so I'm working with them on that. The set is built and just needs painting, and making fairy wings are fun.
The best part of summer, however, is that I'm going back to DC soon to spend a weekend at the Folger. I'm excited about going back and seeing my teacher friends, going back into the archives, attending lectures. I'll only be there for 4 days, which is sad, but the trip is costly. The Folger activities are only for two days, and the other two days will be sight-seeing with Richard (who's coming with me). We haven't been on a trip since the shuttle launch next spring, so this'll be nice. Also, since he attended the Naval Academy and lived in DC and Virginia for a while, he's going to show me his haunts.
I'm enjoying not attending classes, but they start again in 6 weeks!
Cheers!
