I dreamed Genevieve and Danielle were helping me put together an entertainment magazine, like I used to do. I don't know why exactly that involved cutting out photos of 1990's musicians like SWV and Shabba for a long banner, or cutting out Rent theatre reviews from The New Yorker, which implied that Mimi was a witness to some crime Benny had committed and needed to be protected.

...

Last night's show went on pretty well. It was likely the last time that I will play off of Katie's Janet, at least while she is on cast. She is leaving.

We did a tally, last night, as a cast of the castmembers who have left (either willingly or forcibly) since we moved to the Bellevue. They are: Ralph, Chad, Meghan, Nate, Spark, Gamsby, Janice, Tara, Christian, and Mitten. Of those that never got out of training, it's Scott, Dank, Rivka, Rebecca, and Josh. Holy bedamn. Christian only counts for the moment, because he is expected to return.

If I count the Screening Zone, since I've been on cast, the numbers swell... Teresa, Tim, Erin, Allyson, Lea, Baby Sara, Tara #1, Wednesday, Jay... maybe others, I'm blanking.

Cast always survives, but is never quite the same (good or bad) after one leaves, and Katie is one of the best ones. She has two more shows in her, and will be gone after her 21st birthday. Naturally, I don't expect this to be the last time I see her, because I like her too much.
