I suppose the adage "be careful what you wish for" is applicable here... I wanted poetry. Now I'm helping Mike at the WC with his paper, which he's writing on Kubla Kahn. It's actually a fabulous paper idea--he's pointing out interpretive elements that as far as anyone, including his professor, knows, no one has before--& we had an awesome brainstorming session today (interrupted for a long argument with Kareem about the historical validity of the assertion that Coleridge used opium as his muse).

Rehearsal today was hilarious--John had me do my "in respect of itself" speech, which I generally hate, but he stood in front of me & mimicked the tone of the words by making exagerated gestures & facial expressions & making me laugh. The way he works is utterly different from any other director I've ever worked with, & probably ever will. I'm not sure I agree with everything he says...but it is fascinating.

Also Earenfight gave us an extra weekend for our next paper. & right now I am watching Firefly at Kristen's--for once, we actually got Cozy watching it & not falling asleep. Geniuses, we are.

Just watched Serenity again a couple days ago; Sarah, Zach and I had to show it to Rob. I only just then made the connection between the operative in that movie and the protagonist in Kinky Boots. Didn't expect that.

Ah, then you should also watch Dirty Pretty Things--he's in that, with Audrey Tatou, & they're both amazing.
