NYC Fringe Festival
Flew in Sunday
Took bus into Manhattan from LGA
Found hotel
Smallest hotel room I've ever seen
Went to Brooklyn
Subway system is confusing
Subway is super noisy
Subway making me FEEL TENSE!
Brooklyn looks and feels like Chicago
Brooklyn is quiet
Brooklyn is nice
Hanging with Justin & Anna
Largest controllers ever
Fold-out cot barely fit in room
Hotel bed and cot fill 90% of room space
Techs Monday
Venue director super late
Can't tech all of show
Given extra tech day Tuesday
Venue director late Tuesday
Worst tech ever
Got headaches
Drank coffee
Check into Fringe Central in Little Italy
Watch Olympics in hotel
Ate first crepe - delicious
Switched to slightly larger room
Don't tell staff 4 people in 1 room
Pad on floor with comforter and me on bed with thin sheet
A/C on full
Sleep in sweater
Ask for extra blanket 2 days later
Sightseeing throughout the week
Public Library
The Met
Central Park
Battery Park
Times Square
Empire State Building
Chrysler Building
Rockafeller Plaza
Grand Central Station
Get to see Dayna & Sunita
Open show for 11 people
House gets bigger every show
50 people by last show
Nancy's Digbat gets Timeout NY recommended
Did the Power Hour
People like our show
Went to an "Urban Roadhouse"
Actual fight broke out at "Urban Roadhouse"
Pretended to listen to conversations while looking over shoulder at Olympics coverage on bar flat-screen TVs.
Meant to get up early in the mornings
Slept in late every day except Sunday
Took train to bus to airport
Plane 22nd in line on tarmac
Flew back Sunday
Luggage wheel breaks 3 blocks from home
Had fun
Glad to be back
