Time, Memory, and Over-Abundance
Its Obama's Inauguration and I can't get myself to be thrilled. And it's not that I have any love for W or that I'm not generally excited and hopeful for the Obama administration, it's that I'm too worn out by my own life. Really I can't wait to make it to the other side of this weekend. I'm behind on work, I have a rehearsal and a show coming up, I'm going out with a new friend on Wednesday and doing an exercise video thing with a friend tonight. I'm fighting off a cold. I'm looking for a new apartment and a new yoga studio or two in Sf at which to teach.
At Trader Joe's this afternoon I ran into yet another person I recognize and who knows me but who I cannot remember their name or exactly who they are. The frequency with which this happens disturbs me. I feel really bad whenever this happens and either admit I don't recall their name or bluff my way through pretending to know who they are. Is my brain full or am I just to much in an ever spinning motion to ever keep things straight. I really feel like I need to slow down.
So I'm going to slow down. As I get more paid design work I keep culling things from my schedule. But this doesn't feel bad, it feels like it's going to be a rest. Working a lot, getting myself out of debt hell, and doing a Woland rehearsal once or twice a month, keeping up a solid 5-6 day a week yoga practice, teaching yoga 2-3 times a week, doing an aerial practice every now and again and otherwise relaxing and having fun. It's funny, my list of not doing much looks like doing a fair bit.
Need to get a couple hours of work done before tonight's commitments.
