I'm going to teach you about the law.

Read those. Watch the cartoons. Soon, you too will be an educated, law-abiding individual.

And remember, even the passenger gets in trouble.

Anyways, big news in the Adams family! We get the movie channels on CABLE! and I have cable in the basement. So sweet. Also, the patriarch is sick, refuses to go see a doctor and just made himself a sundae with two whole bananas. So I guess it's healthy now.

The Shakespeare play went fairly well. I was Monk With Torch. My part was pivotal. I did have to share the stage with a kid WHOM I HATE. He also had a torch. One that he tried to put out by RUNNING WITH IT POINTED FORWARD LIKE A SPEAR.

Again. Lit torch. Running. Hustle and bustle. People coming in and out of dressing rooms. LIT TORCH.

I about throttled him.

And I'm turning sixteen in eight days, and I'm getting a summer job. It's gonna be an AWESOME summer.

Oh! One of the best flubbed lines from our more disastrous performance of Much Ado About Nothing was this, during the boys' hedge scene: Myself and that guy, did see Hero and THAT guy, do all their stuff. Spoken by Don Pedro, and the guy who played him is absolutely hilarious, and one of the coolest guys I know.

Curse you Shakespeare.

Curse you for writing your plays.

And curse your plays for leading into a NKY Homeschool Shakespeare company thingy.

And curse the NKYHSC for leading into practices every day this week for four+ hours.

Ah well. I'm only in it for a second, so I shouldn't complain, but I've been handling the snack table and that alone is a nightmare. NOONE wants to donate. Dumb economy.

And the play is going to be a trainwreck unless there's some gargantuan miracle. And the best part is..

We are doing FOUR SHOWS. Yeah.

Four chances to slam a train repeatedly into a wall.

Yeahhh.

So, yeah, if you're gonna be in town, Boone Woods Ampitheatre, May 15th, 16th, 17th.
