Opening and cop stuff

*** UPDATE****
The puke run was supposed to be yesterday. They all arrived early to the classroom dressed to run (and puke). They had a little lesson on the chalk board about how the run would go etc. Then they said that they were going to go for a nice easy run as a group - choose a partner... no puke run. I am just worried that they will spring it on them. That is something I would want a little warning on, some prep time.
*****************


Opening went well. The show was fine. Once I am preset there isn't a lot for me to do. The show is three actors on stage for the whole show - they don't leave and there are no scene changes. Everything that needs to be done/changed they have to do themselves. But it seems to be going well. The audience likes it and that is all that really matters.

Nothing else new to report. Logan is loving be a recruit. They are working him hard (physically and mentally). He is learning tons of great stuff - and lots of fun stuff that he teaches me when he gets home. Lots of interesting obstacle courses and physical training too. Some that doesn't sound very fun to me! On Tuesday there is a thresh hold run. Basically, they run from the cop shop downtown to the enter street bridge and Memorial Drive (very close to our house and our huge hill) they run up the steps leading you from Memorial to the top of the bridge - at the top do 30 push ups and back down. Repeat until you puke. That is right - go till you puke. The idea (apparently) is to see how much you can actually do (instead of when you might stop). Weird. Not really my idea of a good time - but we will see how it goes. He tells me that they aren't doing it individually, they have to run in a group. So really you are only as strong as your weakest link - so maybe he just has to wait for most of the others to puke. Weird.

Running until you puke doesn't sound like much fun... good luck Logan!!
