oh brain where art thou?

My brain stopped working today.  The Met audition was more disasterous than my first Phantom 2 audition - my brain wouldnt retain ANY of the choreography - much less do anything anything on the music -  ah well - I don't think I would have gotten kept even if my brain had been on - but my ballerina friend Jessica was kept - and she is super sweet so that is happifying.

I learned a lot of intriguing facts in my encyclopedia/encyclopaedia book - and went to barnes and noble to kill some time where I "read" a book on the art work of Graeme Base - he wrote books such as the Eleventh Hour and Animalia.  "Read" is in parantheses becase I mostly looked a the pictures - and felt very inadequate after seeing a fathers day card he drew when he was 7 that is better than anything I can do now. He also had a whole serious of tree branches with castles growing out of them - which was stunning! Another very cool images was a cave create out of a pair of hands - the wrists dissolving into rocks.  Words can't actually describe the images - or at least not my words with my turned off - but  I would love to somehow incorporate those images into a stage production ---

Today was intriguing at Steps because - Batman was there in the evening - and all my friends minus his sister and Francesco are out of town.  Sniffle.  But the sister did the job of my friends and pulled me away to talk about Mermaid.  Weird - then Francesco came over and kissed my cheek about fifty times - I love Francesco.  He also watched me in class and blew me kisses.  (I must reiterate - Francesco is gay - so these are gay European kisses - not erotic kisses.)  I remember when Batman used to stand in the door and watch - it's nice to look up and see Francesco.  

Anyway - I"m sore and tired and temporarily incapacitated in the brain - so I'm gonna go!  yay.
