First off - Steps gave me my job back. This was the most ludicrous ordeal ever, but it turned out o.k. I was very scared that I wouldnt be able to take dance class, for some reason, waking up to go to ballet gives me a sense of purpose and schedule. I know buffing floors is not in any sense my goal in life, but for now it let's me do something that means a lot to me and helps me get training towards that goal.
I was called in to an invited audition for PINKALICOUS - the MOTHER role of all things. I think I sucked. I mean - I sang a little mermaid song and FORGOT THE WORDS! I just laughed at myself when I left the room. So ridiculous. For the record, Pinakalicious would be awesome to do as it pays and is in the city - but it is also non-equity and doesn't pay a lot - and I am a little young to be playing the mom of a 16 year old. What I GOT out of this audition was I now know I have the ability to learn completely new music over night if given to me. (But let's not lie about this - I couldn't have done it sans Candace and Mary.) But I still DID it. I've never had to learn music over night before, and I did it. Good to know I have that power! Mission accomplished even if the job wasn't booked.
I think I've improved my "professional" blog a bit. It's fun making videos. I need to make them more professional, but it's all a learning process.
And I got to see and incredibly intense wonderful mind blowing play tonight called THE WHIPPING MAN. I'm not sure if I'm traumatized or inspired - but it certainly had a strong effect. I also got to eat "crispy pigs head" for dinner - surprisingly delicious.
