Is it possible?

Well - the met audition was - well - just like any other audition where you go and the auditor doesn't look at you and your number isn't called.  Sigh.  They didn't like Amanda either - so I feel better.  She is SUCH an amazing dancer.

Kat Amanda and I went for a picnic in the park because the weather was nice for once.  I saw 1 and a half corgis.  (One real corgi - and one part corgi part german wolf dog or something - it was amazing!)

I took Tressor's ballet class - very Russian and hard.  I wore pink tights in preparation for my callback tomorrow.  I was pleased.  I didn't dance very well - which made me sad and put me in a poopy mood - not to mention - I found out some depressing Batman news - GAH - I wish he couldn't affect me.  What I AM happy about is his sister has resumed normal interactions - and that was very important to me.  

Then - Kat and I went to my new favorite place in the world - this Italian Sandwich shop - where all these BEAUTIFUL Italian men make these gourmet sanwiches for you and treat you like royalty.  I have never seen so much love go into a sandwich.  I just tell them to make me a sandwich they think will taste good and they go to town - and oooh and ahhhhh over how they hope I'll like it - and have to come back to report.  Its actually kind of funny.  The first time I was there - the other customers were all these beautiful Russian men who seemed equally concerned with how I would enjoy my sandwich.  It's marvelous.  Then of course - we followed it up with Italian gelato - where they all know me - and treat me like royalty too - its funny.  You know you eat too much gelato when...

But - the weird part of the day came when I went to see the little mermaid - "starfish pasty girl" was playing Ariel - so I had to see it.  She was -------- not gooooooood.  It was weird.  I was rooting for her!  I really was!  But the girl - can't sing ---- it was sooooo strange ------- I was very confused.  I thought heck - if she can do it - so can I - WHY AREN'T I!?  I must start an Ariel campaign.  I'll tell you she wasnt belting.  I'm not sure what she was doing - but it wasn't belting...  I still loved the show - and she had a very sweet quality - so was ultimately fun to watch - but it was still just weird.....  I need to go get a job so I can afford REAL voice lessons and get that DAMN LAST NOTE OF PART OF YOUR WORLD REPRISE FABULOUS!  Oddly - right now - it isnt very good - but its better than what I saw tonight - which was weirdly motivating - like - HELL _ ITS IN REACH!  I CAN DO IT!!!!!  SO off I go to do it.

But first - I'm going to land the role of Louise in Carousel - and get my Equity Card - so I can get SEEN for Mermaid!

 Is it possible for someone to hit you - to hit you real hard and loud - and have it not hurt at all?
