Wow this is old...
Hello, Live Journal!
I'm so happy this thing is still here. I thought it had been so long since my last login, they would have deleted my account already.
SO...UPDATES...
Brian and I had a few bumps in the road. But we are now married. It's so strange reading the entries from what? Seven years ago? About how we first met, the challenges we faced. It's crazy.
We got married but didn't have a wedding. I decided I don't like weddings; I'd much rather just wear a tiara whenever I feel like it on any given day than make a big deal about wearing one once in my life.
Besides, weddings are expensive.
We bought Grandma's house. Brian got a few promotions with his company, and he's doing well, though I'm of the opinion that he's got so much more ahead of him. Right now he's studying to get his Master's. It's always been a dream of his to get his Master's, and I'm so proud of him. He grew a beard and now looks like a King out of a fairy tale book. I'm still madly in love with him, and actually he is the reason why I've returned to this journal at all. I wanted the old entries where I talk about our first dates.
I'm a little different now. I'm 33, a good deal less insecure, but also a good deal crazier.
Brian made me quit the casino after working there 5 years, and literally forced me to finish my manuscript. I'm attempting to get it published, but it's a challenge as everyone has the same idea. As much as I hate to do it, I may have to self publish...
I GOT FAT. It's funny, considering how nervous I was about my appearance, but I suppose that happens to a woman when she gets happy and secure. I refuse to "let myself go", and am going to join a gym tomorrow.
I'm still acting. I just finished doing a run of The Rocky Horror Show with the gentleman who did Avenue Q...My god, he is difficult to work with. Yet he's a friend, so se la vie. I played Magenta...
But PRIOR to this, I made a fabulous discovery. In 2014, I performed at the Renniassance Festival doing Shakespeare, and I finally discovered the place where I "belong" as a performer.
RenFest people are the best kind of people. Yes, they are artistic and theatrical, but there is something about performing outdoors that makes performers more down to earth. When we're all out there with the bugs and with dirt under our nails, it's tough to act arrogant. But you still get a sense of pride with what you do. It's amazing and if I could be a full time Rennie I would.
I've made some lovely friends, most of which I can tell will be lifelong.
I have plans to promote my novels at the Festival by doing theatrical shows somehow. It's all in the works, but I've come to terms with the fact that as passionate I am about acting, I'm equally as passionate about writing.
I rewrote the medicine show and actually had it produced in a real theatre! So I suppose I'm officially a playwright now...We'll see what lies ahead.
But back to why I came here. I decided to write a book about Brian. Being so that he IS the blue eyed prince from my dreams, I think it would make a great love story. I'm going to write it as a romance novel...
Poor Brian. He's so shy, I'm sure this is all going to be very embarrassing for him. But oh well! It's too lovely a story NOT to tell! In any case, I am still writing in a sort of bloggish journalish thing on Tumblr...I suppose it's just like th is site only with fancy GIFS and nore socio political nonsense...Perhaps I will return someday!
