Yup still here.
Just thought I would get some of my thoughts out before heading off to work.
Recently I have been more comfortable financially, at least in the short term. I know I owe money to taxes and to friends who lent me money before. Its difficult to really save. At least it is for me. I should just not be an idiot about it and just do what needs to be done.
Beyond that, I feel like I've finally found someone I can build a real relationship. I met Laura though OKCupid, which is always interesting. But, she messaged me and immediately I found we had a real connection. Just nerdy stuff, and theater stuff and whatever else. And of course our first date consisted of us sitting in the back of Bar 9 and making out for hours :p. To the point where if she wasn't dog sitting at the time, we would have gotten busy that night. That may have been the best thing, because we got together not too long after that and its been incredible ever since. Shes such a sweetheart, a wee little nerd, and she just makes me happy. I really hope things continue in the direction they are going. I really would love to have the support of a girlfriend and partner. I'm already starting to feel it too :)
Now that I've gushed on that, *sip of coffee to buy time* I'm trying to think of what I want to do in the future. Working on the new cabaret show On The Spot with Nathan and Patrick and all my friends has really started to get my creative juices flowing again. I'm trying to see what creative content I can get working on. So lets brainstorm:
-Podcast. A comedy podcast of some kind. Improv? Sketch? Some sort of long form serial story? I don't know. I feel like I want to brainstorm with a few friends.
-Write something. I haven't written anything of substance since high school. I found an old story I wrote in high school for my creative writing class. There was so much praise written on that thing from my teacher, and I haven't looked at writing something like that since. I don't know why. I always wanted to be a creative. A performer. Writing should be a part of it.
-Music. I miss being in God Awful so much. Performing music, no matter how dumb it was, was one of the most fun times in my life. I need to find a way to do that again.
-Comedy. Ive always been terrified of doing stand up comedy. I've always said that I'm more of a group comedy person. Improv is a communal thing. A group effort. You create a reality with the help of your fellow improvisers. Stand up... is all you. Its all what you have to say. You have to find whats funny on your own. I dont know how to do that. I should try to learn. At least get an idea.
I think those are good things to get into again. I should take this laptop around with me in case I want to write. Always take a notebook somewhere. Take notes. Use them. For writing or whatever else.
Yup.
Gotta get to work. Adios.
