Pastimes rehearsal yesterday. Ohmigod, it was good to see everyone again. I will say, though, there's nothing like trying to hold a pose as a stern member of a band of pirates while watching a mosquito slowly, methodically fly up inside your shorts.

I was startled to hear I'd be body doubling for coscaram, basically, while he has adventures elsewhere. ("What are your other sixty pounds going to do while you're busy?" asks my brain. Ha ha.)

Today was ostensibly the first day of our vacation camping out in Vermont. However, Tropical Storm Barry decided to *also* vacation in Vermont, so our plan now is to huddle with our friends in Holyoke and conduct lightning raids across the state border to fun indoor places. Whee.

And finally, a transcription of an interior monologue I had last night at 4AM:

MY BRAIN: There's a severe problem with "Happy Feet".
Me: Gzzzzznk...wh, what?
MY BRAIN: The penguins start the movie with no knowledge of humans, right? No human culture, no human artifacts, nothing.
Me: If I say yes, will you leave me alone?
MY BRAIN: So what's a penguin doing singing 'Heartbreak Hotel'??? They don't KNOW what a hotel is! How can he sing about Lonely Street? And, and mirrors! There's a lyric about mirrors later on!
Me: Ohmigod. If you won't let me sleep, can we at least get back to that fantasy about Batman and Doc Holliday vs. the Nazi gorillas?

Batfight at the Stalag Corral!

I love that fantasy.

Wait a minute....you are doing Scarecrow??????? Now I am super pumped up about this show because I will get to see you...

Batman AND Doc Holliday vs Nazi gorillas? Those gorillas wouldn't stand a chance against either one, let alone both.

...unless your "realistic" about it and Doc runs out of bullets and Batman loses his utility belt...

I wouldn't be so sure. Remember, we're talking about Nazi Gorillas, not Nazi Guerillas.

Couldn't work in a tough growl and a slap on your pants to punctuate how serious a pirate you really are?

I totally get brains doing that.
