Quality Whining
Sometimes it bothers me that I never write journal entries when all is hunky dory. But y'know, often I'm perfectly content to wallow in those emotions. Whereas the frustrations I'm currently feeling I would rather hurtle onto a page.
My week thus far: On Monday, my college roomie whom I adore flew back to Portland. Due to her last day in my visiting presence, I totally missed the fact I had a required first rehearsal for my touring shakespeare play. On this same day I missed a phone call from Cal Shakes because my phone failed to tell me I had a message. I called them back and left a message, but got no response.
On Tuesday, I called Cal Shakes again, only to be told that they were calling me for an understudy role on their current production of King Lear. It was a last minute kinda thing, so they'd already filled it by the time I got back to them. It conflicted too heavily with my current play to be able to do it, but still a gutting disappointment. I also was busily cycling around doing errands, when suddenly my brake stopped work amongst traffic. I managed to get to the side with no injury. It appears that the connecting cable between my handbrake and the brake snapped. So that needs to be fixed. Special bonus, my monthly started unexpectedly.
Today, I checked the details for an audition that is in my organizer for tonight, only to discover that it was LAST night. I'd written it on the wrong day in my organizer, and so had memorized it incorrectly, thus missing a general audition for 3 companies I'd love to work with. Also, David accidentally took my phone to work, so I missed the morning part of my touring Shakespeare rehearsal. It was not required, but I should have gone.
So all in all, this week has sucked royally. I want to crawl under a rock and not come out. I just can't, cause I have too much to do. Ack!
