Devil ears

ravenJust got back. The weather is so unpredictable that the Attack of the Day Trippers seems to be slackening off slightly.
Becca has not changed in the weeks since I last saw her, which is good to know. She still doesn't feel like "being dramatic" and to be honest, neither did I. If there's anything our drama rehearsals lack apart from props, costumes and a coherent script, it's motivation. In the end I asked Yusra to put on a CD ("I don't listen to any of this stuff!") which turned out to be the Cruel Intentions soundtrack, and I was lying on Becca's bed watching them do what we call the "fight scene" whilst also warbling away to Placebo. This set-up soon dissolved into laughter and accusations of being ridiculous, all from me.
I changed the track to Colorblind and then the Bittersweet Symphony, which was interesting as Yusra's monologue progressed. Little did she know that while she was delivering it (to the wall) Becca was putting on a pair of devil's ears and a matching barbed tail. Her expression when faced with her fellow actrice should have been cast into plaster, it was that good.
After that they just practised slapping each other, whilst I tried on the demon-ears and tail. They're sparkly red and glitzy and I want them. Becca said she got them from Claire's - "they were cheap 'cause it's not Hallowe'en." I forgot to take them off when we had lunch and gave Karen a giggle. Yusra randomly started melting cheese on Doritos, which was nice but odd. Following that, for some reason we ended up watching the tail-end of Pride and Prejudice, and then I departed.
On the train home, I met a dog that looked like Max. Frighteningly so, in fact. I don't think I want another dog - not now - but this one startled me, he looked so much like him. But that's neither here or there.
I don't feel up to dealing with my mother tonight.
