Last night's performance went rather well. Of course, there were some dreadful and infuriating errors and omissions (if somebody else did them) and minor, inconsequential little blips (if I did them) but overall, it was pretty good. We didn't "mix" until after the show, I'm happy to note, and when we did, I got some wonderful compliments and congratulations.
Now if this third day was just the start of a long run, we could actually relax and hone our presentations, but it's the last performance. I'm not as sorry about that as I normally would be, what with all the production problems, but I'm still a bit regretful.
Anyhoo--David, Polly, and I got up about 7:30. Polly Skyped their son and daughter-in-law, Geoff and Bongsu, on her iPad. G. and B. live in Jakarta--he's in the foreign service, as his Dad now is--and we all had a nice chat.
After, I was able to put together a salad, cut up fruit, pan-fry sausage and ham, and lay everything out as a buffet while we talked.
The further company, Betty and two couples, one contributing a quiche and Italian bread, the other gluten-free cookies, got here by 11:30, and we sat down to a nice, leisurely brunch. Dave and Polly left a few hours later--they had a commitment in D.C. that night--then I got ready and took off for Surflight, fearfully early, as usual.
Didn't get home until after 11:00 or to bed until after midnight. Oh, well, that was the last night for awhile I'll be out and up so late; I'll slowly get back to normal over the next few days.
