little miss muffet all tucked in her tuffet

title: so our microphone/sound guys for the musical are still getting the hang of things at the sound board and don't always turn our mics off (or on!) when they're supposed to. so yesterday, 3 of the girls had girl choir dress rehearsal so they came late to practice. the guy who plays homer zuckerman (jake) says to one of them "well look who's here, little miss muffet all tucked in her tuffet!" by the time he got to muffet i realized that i could hear his voice coming through the tv that shows the auditorium. his mic was still on. all our directors/ orchestra pit heard that. it was quite possibly the funniest thing that happened all week :)

prom season has begun. i got a dress (which is purple and gorgeous by the way) i asked a guy (who said no) and my back up "as friends" date asked a girl who said yes (who is my friend and they'll be cute :)

my mom and i went dress shopping last weekend. well, we went to this consignment store for prom dresses but all the dresses were like $200. so then we just went back to deb. i tried on (again) the very first dress that i had seen on the website and loved. and it looked much better the second time around. oddly, it's the same size as the blue dress that didn't fit. i still owe my mom $75 but it was so worth it cuz it looks amazing :)

my friend coltyn and i made a deal that we would both ask who we wanted to ask and if they both said no, we would go as friends. he wouldn't tell me who he was going to ask, but he guessed who i was going to ask. so i called the guy (who happens to be coltyn's best friend). he didn't pick up. so monday morning, he comes up to me (with coltyn and another friend in tow) and is like you wanted to talk to me? so i was like yeah do you want to go to prom with me? after floundering for a bit with i don't know, it's kind of early, and i don't know you that well, i suggested he could think about it and get back to me. which he didn't do until friday. he brought coltyn and another friend with him to say thanks for asking me to prom but i don't think this is going to work. i'm sorry. i was just like it's alright. he's adorable but super shy so i didn't push it.

in the midst of all this i spent a total of 14 hours at play practice in five days and 2 hours painting sets. today i'm about to spend a good 6-8 hours at dress rehearsal. i'm kind of excited to be fully costumed and made up. although that means i have to wear my contacts so i look like a freak (not really it just feels like it). i'm pretty sure not a moment goes by that there is not a song from the musical stuck in my head. that's ok though. at least i can remember the words when i have to sing them :)
