friday highlights

At last - the show is on again. Although I'm almost too sad about it being nearly over to really enjoy it, which is dumb. A lot of people were recovering from colds tonight, and the show felt a bit draggy. Fortunately, we had a good, enthusiastic audience.

But! the absolute most exciting thing to happen was - of course - in the Norwegians' dance. They change the dance every time. On Wednesday, when they were doing this one move, the tall one slapped at the short one's face. Tonight, he did it again, but then the short one got him back. The short one did the smack-the-floor-in-front-of-me/kick-Mr.K's-foot flirty thing, which I love, and would have been the high point of the dance by itself. But then! As the tall one was dancing past Miss Shirley, he slowed down, leaned over, and planted a big old kiss on her cheek. On her cheek! During the dance! (Of course he had to pick the night when Mr. Miss was in the audience.)

It's a good thing she was sitting down, because she fell over into someone's lap. She says she was so flustered, she forgot the words to the last song. As soon as we were off the stage at the end of the show, everyone crowded around, asking if she was ever going to wash her face again.

But anyway, here's the part I care about: HVEM SKAL KYSSE MEG? Where's my kiss? Here's hoping they pick things up tomorrow. Yknow, in the spirit of competition.
