Yes, it's that time again. Glance's stressed-out-to-the-point-of-shooting-someone week is just around the corner, but this one comes with a pre-show and a test of my limits!
It didn't dawn on me until today that I might have placed myself into a serious pickle due to the events in the past couple weeks. During band, I went over in my head everything that I have planned and realized that may have bitten off more than I can chew. For one thing, I thought that forensic regionals were the weekend after the play, but no. They're this weekend. ...HAHAHAHAHAHAHshit. Then there's the play itself, which I need to prepare myself for, instigate some form of advertisement because we have nothing out yet, and type the acting bios- I'm getting a head start on them this time! Hmm.... maybe I'll get on Eddie's ass about the advertising. He's the only one who actually has time to pass out flyers. I could just whip one up quick and we could make copies at school. That way I'm not stuck doing all this crap like I always am, since I'm the only one willing to do it. As much as I take pride in the fact that we have a nice-sized audience for performances because of my doings, I'm ready to pass the torch.
Besides all this, a lot of things have come to my attention mostly concerning band and my violin, but I won't go into much detail until I know for sure what the game plan for that mess is. Anyway, the point is I'm going to be a-wall for a while because the internet is very distracting and I cannot afford to lose my focus right now. I may stop by tomorrow or this weekend, depending on where I stand with homework, lines, music, etc. Things appear to be overwhelming at the moment, but I feel that until Saturday I won't know whether I've managed all this well or if I've fixed my own nets.
I swear, once this play is over, and my Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays are free again, I'm going to go job-hunting, get my license, and return to editing and writing. Don't get me wrong, I've enjoyed Ten Little Indians enormously, but I'm ready to have more downtime to focus on other things. I wish I'd posted about this more, especially because the last few practices have been brilliant. Like today, we went through the scene when I have to bolt out of my chair and "choke" Adam. Jonah has to run after me, pry me off him, and whip me around. Today he did it too hard and sent me crashing into the chair. It didn't hurt, but Jonah instantly dropped character and went from serious, old judge to "OH MY GOD I'M SO SORRY, ARE YOU OKAY?!?!?" XD We then decided that I should just do the movement myself and he should make it look like he's forcing me to move. It worked much better then, but for the rest of the time he kept asking if he was pushing me too hard. XD I'll have to have someone film that with my camera so I can post it, it's a pretty cool moment. Oh, along with that I'll have to show you all the scene that caused Miss Harper to say, "Hey, you all laugh now, but one day I will be the greatest porn director who ever lived!" Yeah. We're really pushing our limits with this ending. We all joke, but it's creepy as hell. ...Poor Jill, that's all I'll say for now. XD
But yeah, I need some time away from the computer to collect my bearings. Just until most of this crap blows over, then I'll be cp-addicted once more.
