I’ll tell you what Fire and Fury is about: It’s about when you’re rehearsing your A Chorus Line medley — which, of course, every singer and dancer and theater person on earth knows instinctively because IT’S A CHORUS LINE — and the choreographer says to take your places for “I Hope I Get It” and all the dancers under 20 ask “Which song is that one again?”

Oh, nothing
Just wiping the last of the slavish devotion that got all over me during my 2,000-seat standing ovation. How was YOUR night?
And how sweet is this hockey gig? We wait in our lavishly appointed dressing room sipping complimentary RC products and getting unlimited tarot readings until we’re summoned to star in the second-to-last number, catch our breath during the last number, and then soak up cheering applause in my beloved Paramount Theatre as Orchestra Iowa plays a robustly joyful “Sleigh Ride” mere feet behind us. Just getting to stand on the Paramount stage is all I need to brighten my whole week ... but RC PRODUCTS TOO?
Also, how adorable is my mom’s childhood toy Rudolph (or maybe it’s just a charmingly disfigured dog — the jury’s still out) that we recently found buried in a box of stuff and added to our standard under-tree decoration collection? It’s twice as old as I am, but we both still look 28 — which is more like 25 when we’re not in the direct glare of the tree lights.
