Cat On A Hot Tin Roof
I'm exhausted this morning. The reason for my exhaustion is simple. We went to the theater last night to see Cat On A Hot Tin Roof. The play was great.
This has always been one of those titles I've heard about and have been told by many how great the movie is. Its a classic. Its also the kind of movie, although I'd love to see it, would never actually rent or buy.
Going to see it on stage, I'm so glad I didn't. Although there was only one set, the acting really came through. The characters were amazing, and the actors who played them, were a step above that.
With that said, I have no desire now to see the movie. I did however think of my friend Steve, and his ever lasting devotion to Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolfe. The similarity between the two are an easy line. They both involve a drunk (at least one).
The reason I thought of Steve and the movie was that every time Rick poured himself a glass of alcohol, you could hear the ice falling in the glass, which seemed to echo when he swirled it to mix it up. Steve, if you read this, you could hear the clink clink clink. You would have loved it.
Mostly, and above all other things great and small, it was great quality time with Josh. We started with a nice pasta dinner and ended with a great time.
Its now 4:45am and I'm heading to work. We got home last night at 11:30 and I was up at 3:30. I'm exhausted this morning.
