Thursday, Oct 2 - Started with Cameron and I arguing in the West College Ave. Perkins parking lot (talk about "Happy Anniversary"... riiight). Then I went home and slept. I was awakened at 7:30 a.m. to drive my dad to the airport to pick up the rental car. After we got back, I finished packing and getting together all my stuff. I think my dad and I left around 9, maybe 9:30. Mom and Lara drove down separately. Anyways, so we drove down to Chicago and went to my grandmother's where I changed for the wake and then we all went to the funeral home where Lara and I pretty much sat and did homework from 2:30 to 9 p.m. After the wake, the four of us went to my godparents' house where we had yummy Chicago pizza. Then we went back to the hotel and slept.
Friday, Oct 3 - I woke up around 8 and took a shower in a shower meant for people Monica or Nichole's size (hehe). The showerhead was at about the same height as my mouth. Anyways, so I showered and got up and got dressed. Then we grabbed breakfast and went to pick up Grandma and Uncle Bud (her brother) and headed over to the funeral home. The pastor did his sermon (When I die, if my funeral service is anything resembling the sermon he read, I will come back just to kick his ass... he didn't do a particularily good, in my not-so-humble opinion.) and then my dad and I hightailed it over to the cemetary and waited 30-45 minutes til the funeral procession got there. It was pouring. But we did the little graveside dealy and then we all headed over to some banquet hall for the funeral lunch - the first banquet hall I've ever had edible food in. Afterwards, around 1, we took Grandma and Bud back to the house and Mom and I headed home. Actually, first we stopped at the Polish deli to get sausages and other yummys (yummies?), then we hit the road. After spending about 2 hours in rush hour traffic (wait a minute...), we finally actually got going. We got to Oshkosh at about 7 and did Oliver. After the show, we went to Menasha Perkins - the most interesting Perkins episode I've ever had. ("Why is that white man wearing bling-bling?" "Are you a drummer?" "That's it, get out of here, traitor!") Then I went home and slept.
Saturday, Oct 4 - Got up WAY too early to do Theatrix auditions. Stopped at Wendy's for food. Went to the Grand. Did the afternoon show (actually... I let Chelsey do the afternoon show). Ate lunch. Tried to sleep. Was awakened by irritating little children going "Wake up! Wake up!" Did the evening show. Went home. Slept. :)
Sunday, Oct 5 - Well, so far I have... gotten up, showered... that's about it. I'm gonna go grab some food now.
Byeeee!
