I didn't sleep well last night. It was one of those days where I had 20 things going on in my head at once and they just hit me like a sledgehammer. Work, family, faire, friends...
I am so proud of all my castmates and how far they've come since our journey together began. But now in the final hour, I'm looking at my own character thinking, hmmm...What's special about her? The other handmaiden is over the top and wacky and spends her time running away from her princess. I like mine, so what's the fun in that. (Present conflict, hilarity ensues.) Guen has her fantastic moments in court, the Ironsides sisters have each other, and having only been in the Shire for a few days, I "don't know" anyone else. I'm just kind of there holding a title. (And a basket minus the cool retractable iron spikes.) If Honor were an action figure, she'd be the only one left on the shelf after all the Arthur's and Guen's and Merlin's were sold out. Kid's would come into Toys-R-Us and leave disappointed because all they had left was the boring old handmaiden what's her name. (sigh) I think fate had bigger plans for me in CT than as an actor...At least that's what I keep trying to tell myself.
