Bwuh.  So I had the oppurtunity to get paid acting work for 6 months.  And I turned it down.  And am trying to convince myself that I am not stupid.

Am I just too afraid of being poor to rough this out?  That might be part of it.

Mostly I need reassurance.  I shouldn't take a job just because it's paying.  It's a kids theatre company.  They tour around schools in Toronto and other places.  But it would be $500 a week max (before taxes are deducted) and the time commitment wouldn't allow for a second job.  That was the clincher I think.  Even other acting jobs would either allow for another job, OR the time commitment would be something like 6-8 weeks, not 4-6 months, OR it would be something I was passionate about where I would just try to make it work.

Plus I have other projects I would like to work on.

Mostly, I want to stop feeling like a disappointment.  My guilt complex knows no bounds.
