Last night, my first girlfriend and I talked for 7 hours! We lived together for 6 years, broke up in 1984. She’s happily married and living in Las Vegas. We reconnected on Facebook and she gave me her phone number and said “call me to catch up”. The conversation was lots of fun.
The reason I mention this is that she played Janet to my Riff-Raff in Kent Ohio in the very beginning. We moved to Vegas then San Diego and all the while still starting casts and making fools of ourselves. Great fun. We put on a convention once, she’s had several since. Richard frickin’ OBrien (!) flew her to London so she could do costumes and make-up for some VH1 tribute show.
I mentioned this thread and she cracked up. Said to tell everyone “hi”.
Ah, memories.
