It begins again.
The Dining Room as been extended for three more weeks. Rwth and I weren't looking forward to it all that much, but we pity the actors. So tonight, I go back, enter a brand new theater with no separate booth and a minuscule light board, and learn the cues from Rwth, who went to the Dress Rehearsal earlier this evening. Why do this, you might ask, when it costs me so much free time? I don't know.
But I can look forward to leaving town on Sunday to visit Wendy. Someday, perhaps, I will be able to convince her to move up to LA with my massive powers of persuasion. For now, though, I'm gonna get on a train and go visit her. I'm looking forward to it.
Before that, though, I have some jobs to squeeze in. I managed to launder my clothes yesterday, which is a big plus. I've got to drop by Costco to buy some bulk sodas for the April 5 puzzle party. I've got to get a slate of nonfrozen dinners for the next three days at work. I'd like to get some time on the The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, which arrived at my doorstep via FedEx yesterday. Oh yeah, and sleep.
I tested a game on![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
ifmud today. They basic idea was taken from T McAy's IMDB Game. Using selected Plot Keywords from the Internet Movie Database, players have to identify a movie. The faster they answer, the more points they get.
The test went mostly well. Everyone was clamoring for more after I had exhausted my supply of thirty-five movies. On the other hand, many of the movies were guessed way too quickly. I'm going to have to review them to make sure that a few movie-minded individuals aren't able to guess bunches of them on the first clue. Also, I've got to broaden my range of films. Older films were a bit tougher for this crew, but the crowd at the puzzle parties skew older.
It's a lot of fun to prepare, which is good. In fact, someone just got me talking about it on the Mud again, and now I want to find some new movies. Gonna do that now.
ThuNYTX: 17:30. Stumped by some theme entries, but they were very educational, nonetheless.
