Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
I am exhausted....plain and simple. I was going to use today to try and catch up on some grading work, but I decided to throw myself into it last night while watching the Oscars with Tony so I could just chill out today. Of course, now I feel like a fat ass for doing nothing all day. But I needed the rest any way to get better. Been a while since I have been sick the week of a show opening and thankfully it did not get TOO bad (thanks to Oscillococcinum - homeopathic med from France). HOWEVER, I DID have a coughing fit during one of the numbers and had to leave the stage, cough my lungs out, try to get some water and then run back on stage for my part. It was BAD. It has happened only one other time and I think I jinxed myself by thinking about it. It was Oliver. I was stuck onstage in my doctor scene and could barely get through it and talk. Later the director said to me, "Why didn't you just cough onstage?" Duh. I know. Not so easy in this show.
Having fun with it. Goes by rather fast and I hardly feel like I am working at it. It is good to be doing full out musical comedy again and just being on auto pilot. I love me dramas and serious roles, but sometimes, good ol fashioned shtick and cheese does the body good.
I feel scattered as a teacher this semester. The dance concert went well. I am submitting my work to Hubbard's competition and we'll see what happens. Contacted some Armenian groups about trying to set up cultural dance exchange so I can create some works there and try to trace some kind of family lineage.
Kind of getting nervous and excited about moving, but knowing I need to and thankful that I have some support. I just gotta so I know if I fail or succeed and then move on with my life.
And now I will go and watch more TV and do nothing.
