Good Day!

Today went pretty well. Wasn't too hungover from yesterday, just a couple of Scotch & sodas at Streetbar. My rehearsal went well as Edna, the chorus even applauded right after my solo. I finally got the fat suit today, and it is a scream. It is somebodies commercially purchased Halloween costume; an overweight stripper. It had a red sparkly G-string and pasties on the body, but since one was already falling off, I removed them. It looks weird on me, but when you drape something over it, there is this outrageous "Mae West" figure that emerges. This just might be worth shaving for after all! I have started an early weekend; using some of my extra days before they disappear at the end of the month. So I can go shopping for more "Edna" stuff. I already got two wigs on eBay. My thinking is that I will have a frumpy Edna look followed by a sexy Edna. I know I can make it work! And it will be fab-u-lous!
The main thing that made it a good day is Brook called me at work and said that he would like to have dinner and drinks tomorrow night. Perfect! I'm going to try that new "Cafe Palette" and see how it is. I don't think Allen from the now defunct Rainbow (Cactus) will be working, which is a bummer 'cause we've become such good Pisces friends. At least I can tell him that I tried his new place of business next time I see him.
I will be shopping tomorrow to see what else I need to complete my costume. Exciting!
