It is the fourth of July. Happy, happy fourth of July to one and all.
Today I am celebrating by going to Morrison (I think?) to hear the church-affiliated band that my parents are a part of. Just a little family togetherness before they take off for the boundary waters and I am alone for ten days. (But at the end of those ten days, MANDY AND KITTY WILL BE HERE YAY.)
I had a weird set of dreams, on two different nights. Two nights ago I dreamed that I left someone at the altar who I really didn't want to marry and went to hide out in a movie theatre in this big, ugly wedding dress that I was wearing (that's how I knew it was a dream, I would never wear anything so... poufy). And then last night I dreamed about everyone asking WHAT WAS WRONG WITH ME and I woke up feeling really guilty for something I didn't even do. Also, I was having trouble breathing. :\ If I do a deep clean of my room this week, I hope I can avoid that.
I should grab some lunch because something tells me it's the last thing access I'm going to have to food until well after dinnertime.
Grr I should have never agreed to receive mail from the National Theatre in London when I bought my Coram Boy ticket, but I did. I did and now I just know what kind of things I'm missing out on. Like right now, Katie Mitchell is devising ... some trace of her, based off The Idiot by Dostoyevsky (did I butcher that spelling? meh) in the style of Waves, which we got to see last year. I wasn't really sure what to think of it at the time, but the more I looked back on it, the more I enjoy it. It's just so unique -- every image that you see on video is created on stage and is put on screen. You can watch the screen, or you can watch them making the image. It's really hard to know where to look. Anyway, she's doing another one, and Ben Whishaw is involved (see icon, it's a rehearsal photo) and I LOVE Ben Whishaw. Love. I think he is one of the most underrated actors today. I would gladly tromp to the National and cough up however many pounds to see this. They worked together when she directed The Seagull, he played Treplev. (My FAVORITE character in my FAVORITE Chekhov, guys!)
This is probably why it's a good thing that I don't actually live in a big city where theatres actually exist. I would spend all of my money on going to see theatre.
TOMORROW IS THE DAY. AND IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT TOMORROW IS... THEN YOU SHOULD WATCH THIS JOURNAL. MWAHAHAHA. >_>

Dostoevsky is the most generally used one but Dostoyevsky's on a lot of pre-1960 stuff, it's phonetic.
And now I really want to read that play. >_>

I am just a classic then!
