This is kind of what my life feels like right now.

(From fitofpique on the wrisomifu journal)


I am trying to learn my lines despite my brain's determination to avoid any semblance of concentrating on things. Because the sooner I learn my lines, the sooner I can wait for my hand to get better so that I can work on a lot of the physical business that I feel like I'm missing out on.

For those who don't care, the show I'm doing is a farce. The physical bits--the rhythm, the pacing, the business, the timing, the entrances and exits, are so damned important. And it's very frustrating to feel like I'm constantly holding back.

I could not tell you the last time I read a book. I'd say that I should set aside time for reading. But I should do the same thing for exercising, cooking, guitar, writing, playing all the video games I bought, listening to all the music I bought, photography, learning a foreign language, learning skills that make me a more valuable employee.... you get the point.

I'm headed down to Arizona for New Year's, for a whole 48 hours, to see people that I do not see enough of. And that's really exciting. I think all the Christmas shopping I'm going to do is done at this point, and all that's left is riding the people who are supposed to be sending me stuff so they actually do.

So, round and round and round and I hope that guy doesn't suddenly decide he's going to the kitchen for a snack.
