Only been back in the Mar for two days and I have already accomplished much. Came back on Wednesday, after my piano final (eek) and meeting with my jazz class so our teacher could take attendance and then let us go (pointless) and met with the choreographer for the Tibbits show I am doing and a meeting with Margaret Hamilton to discuss my future. So, I hit the road and got back with enough time to unpack my car and eat a quick dinner. Then I headed over to Coldwater to start working on the Young Michigan Dances Association production of "The Emperor and The Nightingale" written by Charles Burr and Bobb James. It's a cute show and the kids should like it. It's a fun way to integrate ballet and theatre for the local elementary kids in Coldwater.
After rehearsal I drove home and went right to bed, I was exhausted. I actually got to bed the earliest I have in weeks. So I got plenty of rest and woke up rather early as well. Then I made myself some breakfast, unpacked and did laundry, got a gym membership, worked out, got a haircut and came home. Made some lunch and went over my lines and blocking for the show. Then went to Courtney's to hang out, watch some trashy tv, played board games, ate pizza and laughed about old times. Always a good time with Courtney. Then I went home, got my shit together and left for rehearsal. The snow storm on the way to Coldwater wasn't too bad, except for the fact that semis were blowing snow in my face left and right. Finally made it there and we had a shorter rehearsal so we could get on the roads early. Sweet. Well I get on 69 and start going probably a little too fast considering the weather conditions and about 5 miles out of Coldwater I see a car going slower than I am, so I hit the brake and swerve off the road into a deep ass ditch. Thankfully my car didn't tip, which is what I was screaming for it not to do the whole time I was going down. After that fun ride, I tried my hardest to get out of the ditch, but I was too deep even for 4 wheel drive. Called my mom, she freaked out, luckily some cars stopped to help, but pushing didn't worked. Finally a policeman showed up and called a towing service for me. About an hour and half later the tow truck showed up. Something I thought to be interesting was the huge sticker he had on his back window that said "Trust Jesus". So I decided to take his word for it and trust the man. He (not Jesus, but the tow truck guy) hooked me up and pulled me out after blocking the road for a little while. (sorry for anyone who was stuck waiting for my ass to get out of this ditch...a huge inconvienance, I know). So the guy towed my car to the nearest exit and dropped me off at the Lions Den (a huge adult video store). I guess we could call the whole evening leading up to my arrival at the porn shop fate. *So after picking up a few Christmas presents* I left the Lions Den and started my ultra slow drive home.
Exciting evening, no? Well I made it out just fine and my car is fine as well, so what more could I ask for? *Porn you say? well yes, that too*...Thank you Jesus! Well I also worked today at the good ol bowling alley and made some pretty awesome tips from an Eaton party. Instead of going to the gym right now I am writing this ever exciting livejournal entry. But whatever, it's true I'm feeling lazy today. Now I should get ready for rehearsal, I suppose. Perhaps I won't drive 65 MPH in a blizzard this time...I dunno, we'll see.
