randomness: ok, i'm going to TRY and write a coherent rant about SF. here goes.


THURSDAY: ok, we spend FOREVER trying to meet up with renata, both of our moms become psycho angry. but it's ok, because we finally meet up, and wander through china town for hours. we had tons of fun just wandering around... then we went to asia sf, the crazy drag queen bar place, and we're all hoping keith will come, and suddenly, a guy walks through the door and heads for our table we're like *must be keith* "gee, keith looks sort of like CURTIS!" only, it's really curtis, not keith. so yeah. we ate dinner with curtis, he was great, said he's going to go to australia for a few months after the show closes... and i told him i have this great book on australia... and i actually had it with me, so i gave it to him later in the week... anyhow... we went to the show, managed to find keith, and the show was greaat and all... i really dont' remember much... talked to curtis at stage door, introduced keith to everyone, and successfully turned him into a renthead, even though he had no specific cast members to stalk... and it was all good. then, we're walking away, and someone taps me on the shoulder, and i spin around, and it's this guy i've never seen before... but i realize, it's RYAN! and i'm like... RYAN!! AH!! and it was really really funny, because i thought he was a crazy homeless... or drunk... person (there was a guy at stage door in a tux who was totally drunk...) yeah, then we went back to our hotels and whatnot...

FRIDAY: i totally do not remeber what we did friday.... oh! ok, i remember... my mom and i went to half moon bay, and it was fucking cold. then we went back into the city and met up with renata who was in line (and ryan, who was also in line) and got our tickets, and went to subway, and saw justin, and joshua and jeremy at subway... and went back to the theatre, where we saw jake, who informed us that he was off... and he's like "hrm, pierre's on for me, stefanie's on as mrs. c, and joshua's on as... as... ah...." "who?! roger?! who?!" "oh! gordon!" and we're like "GASP!!!! GORDON?!?!?! curtis is off?! what?!" and jake was like "ah! um... maybe i'm wrong!" and ran away. but he was right... at least it was joshua as gordon, because joshua kicks major ass. good show, don't really remember much again... joshua and dom did this weird nose bump thing during hny, when the man comes out, and it was amusing... OH joshua's hair... during LVB, as mr. grey... funniest thing i have seen in AGES it looked like he spent all of otm gluing his hair to his head. he was so funny. after teh show, we whined to joshua about curtis being off, and ryan stalked maggie, and a good time was had by all.


SATURDAY: got up early and went and got in line, we were pretty far up, but while we were sitting there, like a horde of teenyboppers showed up, and i was scared.... but ryan made friends with all of them, so it was ok. keith came and rushed with us, good times, he got renata a drag queen doll... it was cool... i met this really cool guy in line, gabriel? i think? and he was one spot ahead of me or behind me... and we hung out the entire time and talked alot... only, totally weird thing... he bought his tickets but *didn't* show up for the show... it was so weird. we went to subway again, with all of ryan's teenyboppers, and it was FULL of cheerleaders, and they were all like, middle aged gay guy cheerleaders, it was so cool. and i kept dropping renata's pen behind the counter... (sidenote: i'm talking to ryan right now, and he says he wants me to mention how much he loved his teenyboppers) went to the show... (mat) and it was HILARIOUS, maggie fell off the table/into a chair... and i swear, ryan almost leapt on stage to try and save her... it was so so so funny. i *think* this was the show that chelle brought her daughter to... (her daughter is just too cute... she was like "so, collins and angel are in love, right?" none of her questions were like "how come joanne and maureen are dating, even though they're both girls?!" she was great... anyhow...) i totally don't remember stage door, i think this is when the picture of curtis looking like an alien got taken... yeah. oh, and this was originally going to be my last show, because my mom was like "no way am i getting up early to get you in line tomorrow!!" and i cried all through the second act, and cried all through stage door... but... ryan offered to get in line and hold me a ticket for sunday, he instantly became my hero. he also brought maggie a bunch of tea and a mug so that she could be all healthy. oh, this is also the day i gave curtis the australia book... we met misty, and shani (i think? this all maybe have happened friday....i'm pretty sure we met chelle on thursday though)


SUNDAY: got in line, and got all ready to watch the pride parade, called renata and she was like "oh, we're on our way, we're just walking out of the hotel" now, her hotel's like, a twenty minute walk from the theatre... so i assume she'll be there soon... like... an HOUR later, she gets there, and is like "my mom made us take buses!!" it was crazy... (and, looking back, this may have happened on saturday, i think it was sunday though) we made friends with tons of people in the line, and the parade was incredibly... so so cool. met richard (this also might have happened saturday...) we spent a bunch of time switching spots in line so we could have seats where we wanted... only, in the end it didn't work... ryan and i sold programs, and it was SO unfair, all the girls were like "ooh he's cute!" and bought from him *sob sob* but it was ok, because renata fixed seats for us so that we could sit together and whatnot... it was an awesome show, during otm, maggie was hilarious, and haven was laughing so hard, you could hear it and jeremy was totally cracking up... omg... i laughed so hard, it was great. since this really WAS my last show, i cried so so so so hard. and it was sad. stage door we talked to curtis, bid everyone farewell... the whole bit... oh! curtis said he loves the book i gave him, and he's going to take the indian-pacific across australia! (which is part of what the author of the book did...) it's billy bryson, from a sunburned country.... bill bryson's one of my favorite authors... yeah


there is SO much more, that i've left out, but i'm posting this... because i'm sick of typing it.
