Opening Night

Our first performance went better than any of the rehearsels have (watch as I KNOCK VEHEMENTLY ON WOOD). The actors were outstanding, and even I couldn't find much fault with my piano playing. I'm really happy about it -- but I am still thinking "one down, three to go." I'm absolutely wiped out, fighting a resurgence of you-haven't-gotten-enough-sleep-and-now-you'll-pay-head-cold, and my eyes always, always ache.

Meanwhile, I bought a box of Puffs with lotion the other day, only to discover: OMG, the tissues smells like medicine. My first reaction was ew. Who wants their tissue to smell medicinal? Then I realized that it's a Vicks smell because it's, y'know, Vicks. And it clears out your sinuses. Which is ... kind of awesome.

Little things make me happy.

Meanwhile, I put out fires at work. Why am I putting out fires? I'm a peon!
