I think once you've partied with the arts crowd, everything else is just mind-numbing boring. I have never had so much fun as with thespians. Raucous!

And yes, you work your fanny to the bone. It'd be good for my fanny to get back into it. One year we did Tobacco Road, and the set designer got the bright idea we should cover the stage with sawdust. And for strike we had to make the stage right for the ballet company coming in the next day.

Thanks!

I would disagree that fun and job are oxymorons. I happen to love my job as a dentist and actually think it is fun much of the time seeing patients and taking care of them. Running my practice on the other hand, is NOT fun....
