Making Up Lines

[deird_lj]

Had rehearsals last night.

The scene I'm in is one long party sequence. And yes, I have many lines, but I have even more time standing around in the background murmuring to people in vague having-a-conversation tones.

After a while, you run out of stuff to say to each other. Some people have been just saying what they're saying ("Pretty dress, pretty dress." "Ooh! Admire, admire, show off my dress." "Admire."), which is hilarious to listen to.
And last night my conversation partner and I got sick of that, and started reciting nursery rhymes to each other. There's something extremely entertaining about saying "Incy-wincy spider climbed up the waterspout" in very serious tones, while fluttering a fan and trying to look beautiful...

Haha, I just realized that on the Internet instead of IRL that possibly makes me sound like an arrogant biatch. I meant that in a FUNNY way, not a dumb American way.

But it's SO "incy wincy". No question.
