They're tomorrow! Errr, later today! I'm so excited! I really am. I'm more excited for these one acts than I was for Into the Woods. Ok, maybe AS excited as I was for Into the Woods. Which is still saying a lot!
I still have some work to do, like making the audition forms for people to fill out and actually deciding what I want people to read for me at auditions. But I've got aaaaaaall afternoon to do that tomorrow.
I just finished reading them over again, and damn! These are some kick ass shows! They're going to be so amazing, I guarantee. I have lots of ideas for them too. I'm not sure if all of them will work, or even look good, but that's part of the learning process this is all about. I can just see them playing in my head, and I'm so EXCITED!!!!
So yeah, there's good news on the Seussical front too. I actually got out of being a Who! So now I don't have to do nearly as much as I did before. I can just sing from off stage and not actually have to learn the ridiculous dances and look like a ridiculous Who. I just hope I can get out of being a Hunch too . . . Those're even dumber than Whos . . .
But along with the good comes the bad. We have rehearsals on Sundays. From 2-5. Which means that my work schedule is fucked up on Sundays as well . . . This show is fucking with my schedule so bad that I'm barely able to work at all! It's nuts! I can't work until 5 on Saturdays, effectively destroying my Omaha social life. I can't go into Omaha on Fridays b/c I have to be back here in the morning, and I have to work on Saturday evenings, so I can't do anything then either. And then I can't even get a whole shift in on Sundays b/c rehearsal starts so ungodly early! I might as well just tell BK that I can't work at all!
Although one of my managers got transferred to the BK here in Blair and told me if I needed more hours, he could use the help. At first I was all excited. Then I realized that now that I have to attend Voices, the earliest I can work during the week would be 1 or 1:30. AFTER the lunch rush. And then I would have to be off by 4:30 to make it to chorale. So, basically I'm available to work for the slowest 3 hours of the day. I don't think they need help then. So, I'm fucked out of hours here in Blair too.
And not working would be just fine and dandy with me except for the fact that my dad is selling me the Sebring and I'll need to make $200 a month payments on it to cover insurance and everything. I just don't know how I'm going to do it all. Being Wickersham Brother #2 is not worth all this hassle! It's just not!
So, aside from that things are going well. Classes are going well, and I've only missed 2. Which is pretty good considering my past track record.
And Scott is even flirtier with me than when I was in love with him . . . That boy is too crazy. He makes my head hurt.
Oh, Matt asked people to post fantasies of their's on his site. I posted mine, and I figured I'd post it here as well:
Hmmmm . . . is this fantasy in general? Sexual fantasy? Or romantic fantasy? Or all of the above rolled into one? Well, I'll just answer them all! In that order!
Taking a year off to do nothing but travel around the world. A year long vacation, seeing everything there is to see.
To be finger-trapped. Mmmmmmm yeah . . . If that makes me a ho, so be it.
To go camping with my partner. And not just any camping; backpacking. Just the two of us, exploring nature, exploring each other . . . Intellectually, jeez! Ok, maybe not just intellectually. I just think that nature is one of the most beautiful things there is, and there could be nothing more romantic than being isolated with my man and experiencing that wonder all around us. Not to mention making love underneath the beautiful starry sky.
Awwww, now I'm sad . . .
And with that, I'm off to bed for my big day of auditions tomorrow!!!!
