Aaron, Kevin and Evie and I did a HORRIBLE five minute terrible terrible skit, which made absolutely no sense, and was written of course by Aaron, like the afternoon OF the show. This absurdist monstrosity was predicated entirely on Evie and myself having a fistfight. The only line worth remembering was 'Are you some kind of bitch?' delivered by Evie to me. The skit itself wrapped up with "Around the World" coming on the PA and the four of us doing a ridiculous dance off stage. I remember somehow I kicked the go pieces everywhere during this dance number and they remained there for the rest of the night.
After the show Ayah introduced me to her sister, who for today we will refer to as "Ikea."
Ayah: This is Charlotte, my neighbor
Charlotte: Hi. Nice to meet you.
Ikea: Hello. Your skit or whatever was really funny.
Charlotte: Heh, yeah. Did you like Adam's song?
Ikea:
Ayah: I knew it was going to be like that, I just didn't know. . . it was going to be LIKE THAT.
Charlotte: Adam's awesome. He's a real character.
Ayah: There's a lot of those around here.
Ikea: Yeah, the whole show was really great.
Ayah: (to Ikea) Charlotte's infamous, like an infamous character around here.
Ikea: Oh, really, well I wouldn't have guessed. (smiles)
Charlotte: Infamous?
Ayah: Wouldn't you say?
Charlotte: Infamous for what?
Ayah: You know, just around the building.
Charlotte: But infamous for doing what?
Ayah: Well I know you painted that sign on the garage door.
Charlotte: The landlord paid me to do that, it's hardly 'infamous.' I'm an artist. (laughs)
Ikea:
Charlotte: Usually people are infamous for doing something. Usually something BAD.
(here I look directly at Ayah's lippy lippy little blonde paralegal head and smile at it.)
