well, for starters, we would be wearing our striped shirts at the same time.

and...

we actually found a cheap microwave with a semi-chrome finish (parts are black) and a "add 30 seconds" button, so we both kinda compromised and finally own a microwave.

Blargh! How was the show otherwise?

That stinks... I'm sorry. I've fallen on stage a few times. Once I dropped my violin and the other time was during the Waltz of the Flowers in the Nutcracker. There wasn't any faking that... I was just an old klutz (well, 28...) in a sea of 16-18 year old girls... who didn't put enough rosin on her pointe shoes.

I'm sure you recovered nicely.

I can't believe you didn't use the "yar, its drivin me nuts" joke.
