oh my... jesus?
So, somewhat randomly, I ended up trying out for Jesus Christ Superstar today (the musical Gina and C.J. are putting on). There was both a singing and a dancing part of the audition, and while I could have just done the singing part, I figured the dancing would be fun (and I figured Gina and C.J. would get a kick out of me going through with it, hehe).

Have you ever seen one of those scenes from TV shows or movies where the somewhat large guy character goes and tries out for some kind of dance thing? (I'm pretty sure Joey from Friends, or maybe on that new Joey show did this, but it's an oft used concept.) Everyone else watches it once and then starts going through it, all doing pretty good, while our character looks all confused, gets in everyone's way, and possibly even hurts a few people when he actually tries to do the moves that he keeps forgetting? Yeah, that was me. I succeeded in tripping the guy to my right and stepping on the hand of the guy behind me.

By the end I was no longer able to sit down or stand up without extreme pain in what Oreana says are my "quadricepts" (or maybe I already forgot what she said). I also slammed my right knee into the floor at one point. I'm still having a hard time standing and walking around ;P. I'm just glad I lived through the whole thing. Auditioning for Hamlet on the Moon tomorrow is going to be much easier.... (And regardless, I'm going to be working with Daniel on technical stuff for it... sparks, robots, etc.... so I'll have something to do.)
