post-IDKE, post-Chicago.
I just got home, late last night from my whirlwind trip... IDKE followed by a week in Chicago. I had a job interview this morning, and now i'm putting in my shift at the box office. No sleep for the wicked. I'm thinking about going to SF this weekend 'cause i have a ride, but maybe i'm crazy for even considering it. It'll depend on a few factors that shape out in the next couple days.
I feel like i have a ton of shit to unpack, both literally and figuratively. Austin is interested in doing Freakshow-a-Go-Go this year, and after my initial "no, its my baby" protectiveness, i think it might actually be an amazing idea. And then the following year perhaps we can bring it back to Portland. Or keep it traveling. Since the Great Big in DC is ending, it'd be nice to have a big drag king ish show every year. And it would be pretty amazing if it kept going, a feeling of wow, i started something important and awesome. I'm also getting pretty psyched about starting a queer dance company. I got SO much amazing validation about what I choreographed for our IDKE piece, it helps put a fire under my ass and give me added confidence in this new creative endeavor. I had some time to flesh out the details and structure, and am looking forward to putting it in motion. And, with this job interview, i'm re-inspired in my job search. So, i need to like, take a really long nap, and then re-dedicate myself to getting my shit together here in Portland.
before the show, getting into character. Jodi's a monster, i'm a scared kid.
