Matt and I spent most of the day at the space prepping for tomorrows soft soft open. A private event, due to city red tape, for family and friends. The first show in the yet to be christened Coalition Theater. When I first saw the space I was wowed. The paint job, the stage, the kiosks, everything looks amazing. But a lot of cleanup and small stuff had to get done before the theater would be ready to receive.
Matt cleaned the bathroom with some wonder product called Krud Kutter while I unwrapped and unpackaged chairs.
Matt meticulously painted trim while I hauled out garbage, swept, and mopped.
It was a long day and there was still more to be done. But it was a satisfying days work. It always feels good to work hard and it felt especially good to help my friend with this amazing dream that he's realizing and in some small way be a part of it. The rest of the evening wasn't nearly as joyful but it was interesting.
Matt took me to this event that was being sponsored by the RCC the World Air Sex Competition. Like Air Guitar I guess. And evidently they some how got Scream 1 through 4 star David Arquette to judge. It was a surreal event with lots of weird conceptual pantomimed intercourse. The highlights though were some of Arquette's notes.
David Arquette: I liked how you really walked the line there. I thought you were going to die. (thoughtful pause) Death: the ultimate orgasm.
and
David Arquette: I mean you didn't cum and that's what I'm looking for. (earnest) I want to
see The Big Spill.
The French refer to orgasm as "le petit mort," which means "little death."
