Not So Little You and I
What a wild evening. Well, after being in this country for 16 years, I finally went to my first concert tonight. Yes, believe it or not, I have never been to one until now. I went to see Jason Mraz at Jannus Landing. The man is truly a lyrical and musical inspiration and I have enjoyed listening to all hs songs (he has about 78 now I think). I had such a great time (Thanks China!!!!). Granted, I am half deaf now and my feet are killing me from standing for 4 hours (thank god Chorus Line prepped me for standing around waiting) but it was worth it. He sang two of my favorite songs, appeared genuine, was in amazing voice, and was absolutely in the moment. The man has an incredible range.
Other than that, tomorrow I have my first rehearsal with the dancers at UT. I am really looking forward to it. I rarely get excited about things and I am definitely anticipating good things.
Dames is going well. I kept waiting for this revelatory moment or emotional breakthrough that would open the heavens of directing for me. Honestly, it is just another show. I am having fun, have dealt with the stresses and fires as they come. I neither hate the experience or love it. It is an experience. I feel that it will be good show. God knows I have put my six actors through the ringer and worked them, but it is worth it in the end. I don't know...I expected more I guess? Weird.
I have to mention this because it is so innane. Why is it that adults feel the need to lie about getting messages and e-mails in an effort to mask their avoidance. Why not just tell someone what you want to instead of being passive aggressive. So stupid. So pointless. I mean really? Be an adult and get some balls. Just silly.
School is over next week. I have enjoyed it as much work as it has been. I like being busy to the point of exhaustion. While I love just lying down and watching TV, I would go crazy if I could not be overly busy.
My work with Jorge on a youth theatre production of Godspell at Patel has lead to many good and great things that I don't want to talk here for fear of jinxing. The outcomes may mean that I can't move when I wanted to, BUT, I am open to wherever the wind may want to blow me. Why shut the doors....but man, it is stupefying.
This may be somewhat lackluster for an update since it has been so bloody long, but I promise something more substantial soon.
Oh oh oh, I did want to mention that I thought it such poetic justice that Dubya could not find his way out of a locked room and kept tugging at the door. It's like people who keep pushing on a door when the sign says pull. Good times.
