The Cult of Lincoln

Advisory Dinner. Too fun by half! My fellow homeroom people (Chungy, Cherise, Christine, Margaret, Ashley, Mack, and Loh -- Rachel was sick) all met in Loh's room, then carpooled off in Loh's van to the Dream Cafe. Or at least, where we thought the Dream Cafe was. Christine told us Belt Line and Central, instead of Belt Line and the Tollway, which are about 20 minutes apart. We ended up in Little China. Eventually, Christine called information and got the number for the restaurant and set us right on track. Of course, when we found the general vicinity of the restaurant, we saw that it was nestled impregnably in an enormous shopping center, and we were powerless to find it. Christine called them again for directions, then again when we had no luck. We were laughing hysterically as we finally entered the doors. A splendid time was had by all. We discussed Halloween, including possibilities for Spongebob Squarepants and various ways of dyeing Cherise's skin blue for her Rama costume. Also how none of the rest of us had the foggiest idea of what we should be. Of course, the entire time, I was thinking that because it fell through last year, I should make another attempt at Angua, but I kept this to myself. Until, of course, Mackenzie pipes up: "Priscilla! Know who you could be? Carrot's girlfriend, whatsername!".

I love Mackenzie.

I'll bounce ideas off Mimi in carpool tomorrow; she's currently ploughing through T5E. Did I mention Mimi was carpooling with me again? Her mom is actually willing to pay me $5 a ride, even though it's just a couple blocks out of the way. I'm rich! The only downside to the situation is that I can't sing in the car anymore, but it's worth it. Mimi and I rarely see each other, so it's good to have quality time. Hurrah. Plus, an oh-so-fertile mind to warp. Jolly good.

On another tangent (I can see how they connect, but that's just me), auditions for "Dark of the Moon" are tomorrow. I think I'm going to try for Barbara Allen, the love interest, as well as one of the few females who sings. I'm trying out with "Whatever Happened to Honor", simply because I can. "Dark of the Moon" is a musical play, not a full-blown musical, and we only need a simple song, sung a cappella, to audition. Of course, I remind myself that due to the setting, all accents will be blessed with a country twang, and I had a moment of abject horror as I envisioned "Whatever Happened to Honor" sung by a hick farmer.

Wish me luck.
