So in order to get through 4 classes (technically 3 and a lab) this semester (which is 2 more than I've ever been able to manage--stupid fibro/depression double team), my therapist gave me a list of three actions I should take to try and keep my energy levels up ( Read more... )

The pictures for Grease are finally up! They can all be found here, but here are my favorites.

( There are worse things I could dooooo )

So, I didn't get a part in R & G are dead, but it's okay. In truth, I was worried about whether or not I could have physically kept up with the rehearsal schedule, so it's probably for the best. Still, I'm glad I tried.

Dad and I went to see How to Train Your Dragon afterward, which I really loved. It's the best movie Dreamworks has done since ( Read more... )

My audition went pretty well, I think, and now all I have to do is check the call-back board tomorrow to see if I got a part. Even if I don't, I'm just glad that I made myself try ( Read more... )

My stomach is doing better, so that's one thing to be happy about. I also found out today that I didn't miss auditions after all; the date on the website is wrong. So I signed up for a spot tomorrow at 4:20. I've pretty much got my monologue (one of Ouiser's rants from Steel Magnolias) down, but I'm going to practice like crazy for the rest of ( Read more... )

Our group's first rehearsal in front of Kevin went fairly well, I suppose. The guy playing the husband couldn't remember any of his lines, but Kevin liked it anyway and it was under the time limit, so I guess that's all that matters ( Read more... )

Good fuckity God I'm never going to get these songs out of my head. Thank goodness there's a three-day break between performances, otherwise I'm quite sure that I and everyone else in this production would go absolutely batshit insane ( Read more... )

RIP, Dixie Carter. You were my childhood heroine, and I've no doubt that you're already HBIC in the afterlife of your choosing.

Tonight's performance went well, but we were all a little bit depressed over Dixie. The guy who plays the Teen Angel (and who is Fabulousness personified) hung up one of the costume shop's Designing Women DVDs (it had ( Read more... )

Opening night went wonderfully. They worked out an ideal quick-change system last night, and so my job now is to do small, quick costume repairs--replacing buttons and suchlike, in addition to my duties in the spare men's dressing room. I also cleaned and organized the costume shop, so my OCD is happy, even if my back and legs are not. Eh, Pixie ( Read more... )

Vet was half an hour late this afternoon. Sharif got his vaccinations, his Coggins bloodwork drawn and his teeth floated properly (I even took pictures of his stoned ass during the process), but I had barely enough time to rush home, shower, eat one of those handy Uncrustables sandwiches and dash.

Grease rehearsals were a nightmare, but not as ( Read more... )
