The Best of Days, The Worst of Days

The entire title is ridiculously exaggerated, to be honest. The past two days have fallen into neither category, but they've contrasted one another rather starkly.

Monday was an all-day-double. One of those glorious days which mean long shows, long lunchtime, and relaxed atmosphere. Nothing particularly amazing happened, but it was a good start to the week. Today was a normal double-day, which we were dreading. It meant a pre-7am call time (translating to a 6am alarm time), a drive to Shrewsbury (well over an hour away), a get-in, two shows, getting out at speeds approaching that of light, a frantic half-hour dash to out next school, and then when we got there we sat down and had tea for 20 minutes because lunch was being had in the hall. Still, the show started and finished in good time, the audiences all day were good, and aside from my legs being in agony - must stretch in the mornings - I'm feeling pretty good.
