"We're actors - we're the opposite of people."
tom stoppard, you dear man. great play, and having acted in high school, i can identify with that line and also laugh at it. i kinda miss acting sometimes. i've long thought that if i returned to theater, i'd rather tech than act. but that's just the geeky part of me that likes pushing buttons. the rest of me would still rather learn her lines and make people laugh and cry. i think doing stand-up comes out of that for me. i'm writing my own script, but it's learning lines all the same. and it feels good to perform again.
