It is insane that Kurt ended up playing Officer Krupke.

Completely insane. The rest of the casting was pretty good, as I recall.

It was mostly law students--I think they had a couple of ringers (actually that would've been before he was a law student, I realize now--he was a paralegal elsewhere. So he WAS one of the ringers!). My undergrad didn't have a theater major at all, and all our stuff was extracurricular. Some of the people were awesome though, and many of them have gone on to stay with theater (and then there's like, Brad Cooper and Mike Birbiglia).

WHY are they acting like Tony, Bernardo and Officer Krupke are the only roles in West Side Story.

My guess is they picked the songs they would do and treated that as the entire musical.

I think the only involvement the actors at my undergrad had with the law school were the annual mock trials. The law school and the med school had the only paying acting gigs in that town.

Shoot, Sophia, for that price I'd buy it anyway, if the kitchen is the only thing you don't like! You could take out the granite countertops and sell them for enough to put in whatever you want.

I am so over this summer cold. Instead of getting better, I'm worse than I was at the beginning of the week. Sudafed no longer seems to be helping, and I'm quickly running out of tissues. My nose is raw, and I'm tired of breathing through my mouth.

Is there anything else I can do?

Neti pot, for congestion? It's gross but oddly satisfying. And it really does work.

Can't do a neti pot. Tried once and it wasn't pretty.

That house is cute, Sophia! And the kitchen isn't really hideous -- at least it's new, you know?

I don't like anyone right now.

They do sound particularly asshatty at the moment.

Mah sister in granite countertop hateage! We are few but...merry? I guess? I come from granite quarry country--there's even a town by that name--with a monument or headstone company in practically every town. Do not want a kitchen full of headstone, thanks.

We're supposed to be sunny for the next ten days, and get all the way up to 80 by Sunday. I'll remember this in November and February, when I forget what the sun looks like.

I joined Tumblr for visual input, and to get away from the verbal. I still read and repost political and social content, and I still make an occasional comment, but I value the overwhelmingly visual aspect of Tumblr. Landscape, seascape, starscape, cloudscape, pretty and striking humans, tea things, writing things, wildlife, and the occasional socio-political post. And Scola. And Jilli.

What about a saline nasal spray. I don't like the neti pot either, but I can use the spray.
