Recap

So - finally a quiet moment, and I can update.
Life has been really crazy, as you may have been able to tell from the total lack of posts - all I ever seem to do these days is get to work, glue myself to the screen, drag my butt to either rehearsal or happy hour, then collapse in front of the tv for an hour or two before bed.

I'm stage-managing a play for one of my friends - it opens in two days, and it has been a wild ride. I haven't stage-managed since high school, and I always wanted to get back into it, but I was too busy in college. Not that I have time in NYC either, but apparently I like being a little overwhelmed and busy now that I don't have to go to classes and take exams. (Can we talk about how glad I am, even 3 years later, that school is over and done with??) It's a hilarious comedy, almost all of "my" actors are incredibly gorgeous and talented, and I really hope it goes smoothly.

If you're reading this, you probably also know that I went back to my college town this past weekend, for the first time since I left 10 months ago. It was completely phenomenal, getting to see everyone again - my friends make me feel like a rockstar. I finally hooked up with the guy from this entry, so that was nice. WE BEAT DOOK. I felt like an entirely different person on a different planet - just flying by the seat of my pants, not planning a thing, crashing on different couches almost every night, getting drunk for under $15... It was a total break from the breakneck speed I fly at every day in the City. Thank goodness.

No sunny day is without clouds - my (very expensive) flight home was delayed FOUR HOURS on the tarmac because of the weather, so I didn't get back to my apartment until 1am this morning... and while on the tarmac, I got a voicemail from The One that seems a bit ominous - his ex-whatever (not a girlfriend, but she'd be mad if she knew he said that) is moving to his town and he doesn't know where that leaves them... so I had a bit of a stressful night. Gotta have faith that it'll all work out.

In the meantime... I just keep swimming along - looking for a better job, looking for a better life... but I am so blessed.
