Debuted a new act tonight. It really didn't go great, but it didn't go poorly either. Whenever I think I am doing well, I have some not so stellar performance to remind me that I still have much to improve on.
On an up note, I love the new costume so much, and I am going to keep working this costume to make it absolutely stunning.
This day went South fairly quickly. One of the doctors at work put in her notice. This is going to create even more chaos in an already extremely chaotic environment. I also ended my day on the note of euthanizing a small kitten who had an incredibly malformed jaw. And watched my dear friend nearly have a break down about it. UGH. Then 2 of my headliners for May 26th have dropped the show in the last 48 hours. I can't help but feel a bit hurt by this, and am trying to just be understanding, and not hurt by this. UGH. The show will go on, just disappointed, I guess. To top it all off, I come home to my neighbor being crazy because I have to let my dog's out to pee. She is convinced that I let my dogs out to harass her, despite that I am gone for 12 hours, 4 days a week. Nevermind that her dogs bark at me when I come home. Then I have to listen to her and her family threaten me through the window. I turned my music up and tried to tune them out. I really just don't know what to do with this neighbor situation. It is really unnerving, and sadly, I just really don't feel safe living here any longer.
So all of this leads me up to a not so stellar performance. I guess I shouldn't be too disappointed.
Tomorrow, Penn and Teller.
