The other night my friend’s daughter was in a play and so we went to see it.
I didn’t really care very much about seeing the play, honestly, but I want to be supportive of my friend and her family and so that’s why we ended up going.
I’m not a big fan of community theater, but I really try to be supportive whenever I can when it comes to things like this. Anyway, the day of the play it was super hot around here. We are actually right in the middle of a heat wave and the temperatures have been breaking records for weeks now. I hate the way that I feel whenever the weather is too hot and so I had my central air conditioning cranked up really high that whole day. Then whenever it was time to go to the play, I rode with my car’s air conditioning on full blast all the way to the theater. I assumed that they would have the air conditioning settings inside the theater set comfortably for the audience. Well, when I walked into the lobby of the theater to buy my ticket, I noticed that it was freezing inside. I thought that surely, the inside of the theater would be a lot warmer since there would be a lot of people gathered together in one place. However, it turns out that I was wrong. I had goosebumps the entire first act and I only warmed up whenever I went back outside! It felt so good to go outside for a few minutes. But as soon as I started heating up, I had to go back inside of that freezing cold theater for the second act!
