So, I got a job for this summer. I accomplished my goal of not staying home and sitting on my ass doing community theater ... YAY! I keep thinking it's some kind of joke or something, and that they're gonna call and say, "Oops, nevermind, we didn't really mean it." I'm thrilled beyond belief. It still hasn't completely hit me. AHHHHHH!

Of course, there are a couple of problems that come along with it. I can't go to my step-brothers wedding. I feel terrible, but I have a show that night, and there's absolutely no way I can make it back in time. I can't give up the whole summer because of the wedding ... this is too important to my career and what I want to do with my life. I haven't told my dad yet, and I should probably do that. I never know how he's going to react about things, so I guess this another one we're just gonna have to hope for the best on.

Medea is coming along pretty well. I'm kind of nervous ... I've done my monologue enough now that I'm bored with it, and I don't know what to do about it. This is where that whole 8 shows a week thing comes into play ... it's really difficult to find the passion in it every night. Maybe that's why I'm such an advocate of film work ... you do it once, and it's perfect, and it's captured forever. But I guess that's kinda the easy way out, huh. I don't know. I felt very disconnected from our run in general so hopefully as things pull together, I will too.

I have things to do. And all I do is sit on this computer. I'm gonna go do them.

i find that when i get bored with a show it just means im ready for an audience. i bet once the dress rehearsals and actual shows themselves come around itll be fun and exciting again.

ps. congrats again on the summerrrrr.
