- Scheduling my life between trying to maintain a good reputation at work, behave professionally for CHARM and gearing up for two auditions, Death of a Salesman, working my second job and still working 5 days a week at OliveGarden is.... exhausting. I'm thrilled to be busy though, it means I'm not one of those graduates who get their degree and have no jobs open to them. I'm lucky enough to have a job with a Theatre Company, a paying acting job, and a 'muggle' job waiting tables, which is 3 times as much work as some college graduates have. I'm all over the place, but i'm grateful.
- Men are... confusing. I have feelings for one person, I've been seeing someone else casually, I'm infatuated with a co-worker... and none of it seems to make any sense. I am honestly too busy to really try and worry about dating or a relationship, but it is something I can't help thinking about every damn day. Sometimes I think i'm letting myself settle for something less than I really deserve. But then I wonder if its possible that what I deserve doesnt exist in this circle of people i'm around. Am I supposed to just... wait? Sit here, lonely and anxious, and hope that when I move ( 7 months from now ) something better will show up? IDK, confusing.
- I'm OBSESSED with The West Wing. I grew up watching this show with my mom, and now that the entire series is on Netflix I've re-discovered just how wonderful it really is. I honestly think everyone should watch it. Its smart, witty, intense, driven.... Aaron Sorkin is a goddamn genius and I mean that 100%. Seriously. Give it a shot.
- I'm auditioning for Les Miserables at Pioneer this week and i'm petrified, but really really stoked at the same time. I've got at great song that loves my voice, and I'm driving down to the audition with Nick Morris, who is good luck, i've decided. I'm also auditioning for Saturday's Voyeur at SLAC next week (as soon as I remember to call for an audition slot). Both are paid, equity level, shows, and either would be a fantastic way to keep this whole "working actor" thing moving forward.
- I'm cutting out negative humans from my life. If you treat me or my friends badly, or generally carry yourself with a negative attitude, please know that I'm not allowing that kindof energy into my life anymore and I will disassociate myself from you. I want to be surrounded with laughter and smiles and joy and honesty and sincerity. I want to know that if i'm having a bad day you will sympathize and help me find the positives in my life, and in return I will do the same for you. It is so much more difficult to be a negative human than a positive one, and I'm picking the easier road.
- The temperature lately is madness. a 4* high for the day is NOT ACCEPTABLE. #ReasonsToMoveToFlorida is my new hashtag for anything winter related. Also, all I want is to cuddle all the time.
- My dog is the cutest. The end.
- I'm panicked about the fact that I wasnt notified about paying some insurance premiums until after my coverage had lapsed, and I'm not sure I was actually covered when I made my emergency room visit.... I'll figure it out but... yikes.
- It is important to remind the people in your life that you love them. Every day. You never know when they will be gone.
- I still havent had a chance to go see Katrina and baby Ingrid, and i'm dying on the inside because of it. Hopefully next week before I get into Salesman rehearsals I'll be able to find a day to make the trip down. I miss my girl, and I'm so excited to meet her beautiful baby.
- A bruised tailbone is VERY inconvenient. After my New Years Day tumble down the stairs, It's been healing slowly, and I feel like I'm in the most painful part of the healing process. there arent many comfortable ways to sit anymore, so I kindof suck it up and deal. between the tailbone, and the corset wearing, and my heartburn issues, i'm a hot mess.
- I'm considering joining Anytime Fitness because it is a 24hr gym, which means I could go after rehearsals or at 1am if I can't sleep....
- but lately Midnight has been my breaking point for sleeping. My long days with no naps prevent my night-owl habits, which is great.
Goodnight, my friends.
