Day 337/365 (July 21, 2009)

What the crap? last night i fell asleep on the couch shortly after midnight... close to 2 am i was woken up by emma who called me to bed. it is pitiful to be put to sleep by a cat, but much appreciated since my bed is more comfy than the couch! anywho i basically stumbled to the bathroom then laid down and was out like a light again. when i woke up this morning to emma curled next to my body and head and one paw draped on my arm i thought how cute and i wonder what time it is. it was kinda on the darker side outside and i knew i fell asleep pretty early so i was like i bet it is around 9 am... boy was i wrong! i looked at my phone and it said 2:24! i thought it was wrong since my phone sometimes displays the wrong time... no it was right which means i slept for just about 14 hours! i had no idea i was needing that much sleep, and now my day is wasted!

i did the massive dishes that some how appeared and that was at least productive.

eventually i got ready and headed to the 9 to 5 stage door since they had tweeted about wanting people there to be in a sing along video... so of course i went! "have camera, there is a tamra!" is my camera whore mantra. it wasn't done as i had thought (just everyone singing along) the producer guy was picking people who wanted to be picked, he sung them a line from the song 9 to 5 and then you sang it back in the camera... fun! the stage door guy was also pretty funny and very into making the lion king attendees jealous they werent at 9 to 5!

after i headed over to therapy for broadway sessions because marty thomas was one of the guests and joey was there... and he had a friend josh with him that was just fabulous, and eventually mike showed up. it was an interesting evening with "great" musical trivia... like i would know who the original Boq was... i could care less about wicked, lol! Marty sang his mashup of Single Ladies by Beyonce and Dont Rain On My Parade... and his one man Omigod You Guys from legally blonde. both complete with dancing and spectacular lighting. twas late so i went home.

Day 317/365 (July 1, 2009)

Constantine with the official Guinness World Record Certificate... BWW maybe?

from Rock of Ages Twitter... i look rad and laura is in it too

i took this... cast holding certificate but you cant really tell

I had another day of poopiness but at least there was something fun to look forward to and that was helping break a Guinness world record! (largest and longest air guitar ensemble) i headed out to rock of ages pretty early to check the line situation and i ran into brian! it was nice having a little catch up chat with him! then i went to the courtyard for a bit and just hung out. eventually i went back and was of course the first person in line. the guy who works for them and was holding a "line starts here" sign was thoroughly amusing and a fellow camera whore. we would ham it up any time a camera appeared (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2PBncrsd1o) so far i saw myself on CBS (or was it NBC) news, RoA twitter, and that video but frankly there has to be more! we witnessed some stupid people such as the woman asked how to get into the theater (um open a door) and the woman who passed by saying "but they dont have any air guitars with them!" (um lady AIR guitar?!?!) it was also a nice surprise having laura join in the line too!

eventually they let us in and i took my seat in the mezz (B101) and OCean ? taught us some air guitar moves including the "stacie jaxx dirty panty air something or other" Ocean was quite funny and extremely entertaining. after the instructions and a short practice run they played the music and everyone in the theater did their best moves and it was fun watching the cast participate too! then they gave out prizes and did a Q & A with the cast while the judges tallied stuff up... with 810 people we broke the record and even though we only needed 90 seconds we rocked on for about 2 and a half minutes (i think it was 2M 34S).

then i headed over and hung with sasha, fred, and pip for a nice long while. marty was in and out so fast! then i went t path mark and went grocery shopping even though i didnt find the things i did want and couldnt figure out what to get. i dont understand how i cant remember other things to eat! i mean i am an awesome cook and can do whatever i set my mind to but alas nothing seems to interest me.

anywho i came home and didnt do too much.

Day 212/365 (March 18, 2009)

I woke up in such a cranky right foul mood! I was trying to finish cutting HSM audio but the world wouldn’t leave me alone… texts, twitters, phone calls, emails I couldn’t take it anymore! I tried shutting out the world and failed slightly, but that ended up being for the best!

I got a call from Krysta asking if I could do her a favor and while we were talking she asked if I had gotten the battery’s down filming email and I said no because I was tuning out the world… well she told me about it and I saw the time and by the time I got off the pone with her I had 50 minutes to shower and get to NWS. This means I had twenty minute to leave my apartment if I was going to be there on time. This is no small feat for me since I take 20 minutes just to shower usually, but somehow I made it and went on my way.

The filming for this episode was the most fun of the ones I have been to yet because we weren’t just audience people we got to pretend to be doing things… I was a stage manager with a headset that ended up giving me a headache from squeezing my poor head, but I didn’t care! When we were filming the backstage stuff I got creative, and had fun “acting” with one of the other people over where a prop went.

Then I went to help with hair lotto and deliver krysta’s clothes. They were filming something for the website and I decided that I should be interviewed since I am a camera whore so I asked them to and they did. Then I went to bed, bath, & beyond to meet Karolina for the bridal registry.

It was lots of fun and we got some good information, and Karolina made out like a bandit! I also proved my worth as maid of honor… woo~hoo! They had hors d’oeuvres for us and some yummy pomegranate martinis… I only had two (they were non-alcoholic though so don’t go there) but if I could have I would have had more, they were so great!

Then we parted ways and I went to pick up the kitty food from Sasha, then I went home. I finally finished cutting the HSM audio and edited all the info on itunes and sent it out to everyone… it felt good to get that off my list!
