February 12, 2004Gadzooks. My apologies to the people who got turned away at our PS122 reading last night -- who knew 9 bajillion people would show up? I'm sorry I didn't make enough cookies for everyone, even after nearly two hours of baking. (They weren't very good either, but that's to be expected.)
There's something nice about bright stage lights and just the murmur of people outside in the dark. Thanks to being unable to see the audience, I was able to keep my New Year's resolution last night -- no pants-crapping.
Usually I hate going to readings. I find them really deadly, but last night everyone cracked me up (and/or grossed me out completely). I was very very impressed and pleasantly surprised and not at all humiliated. Whoo! Go team!
