First Trial Run

So... I got out my trusty dice today. And, I tested out my charts. The fun part, is taht I put the results up on "My Schedule," part of "My Fringe." Which makes it possible for me to share those results with you here. Now, these are not the shows I'll be attending. It's just a sampling of what might come to pass. (Well, with the exception of the Dandelion Snow performances. I'm assuming the director would like it if I showed up for those. Although some days I wonder. Hmm.) Anyway, the battle plan is still to roll right before each time slot, and not knowing what I'm seeing until immediately prior. But... As said above... a sample of a possible future:

---All in all an interesting schedule, if I don't say so myself. If I were attending in a normal manner, I'd be a little disturbed at only seeing the 2nd half of "John & Jen," but I think I'll survive, since I'm doing it this way.

Allrighty, more blathering later...
