Phone conversation with my good friend STORM, who is starring as Sally Bowles in a theatre production of Cabaret playing in Rochester, NY…
Storm: Dude, are you coming?
Storm: Dude, are you coming?
Me: Of course!! I wouldn’t miss it, full-on road trip. I just have to figure out which weekend.
Storm: Yay! Just don’t come on the 9th, a busload of my most rabid fans are going to be there and they’ll totally swarm you once they figure out we’re friends.
Me: Ha! Rock star! Okay, I’m thinking the 2nd maybe. I am fully psyched to see you in this part.
Storm: Cool! You’ll get to see me play a total slut who sings and dances and cheats on her boyfriend and then has an abortion behind his back.
Me: Shit, that’s not such a stretch for us. That’s just 1988 all over again.
Storm: Omg, do you realize 1988 is a full 20 years ago! Is that possible? How did that happen??
Me: God we’re old.
Storm: Crap…
Me: Damn it…
