Sunday Sunday.

So it's the first Sunday in a few weeks that I've been home alone and not at my girls' apartment...and I may or may not have spent it laying on the living room floor cuddled in blankets watching Jon and Kate Plus 8 and Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and alternately giggling, aww-ing and sobbing.

It's been a wonderful week, but I think my body has finally caught up with how incredibly busy I've been lately. It's wonderful and I revel in this kind of busy-ness and this kind of positive stress, but it is kind of a change from the last few months and it's...well, exhausting. The last few days, even if I am getting enough sleep, I just feel totally wiped out. It took all of my strength today to get to and through my dinner theatre rehearsal where I barely even had to do much. A huge amount of flu/sickness has been going around lately, and I've been sucking down Vitamin C like it's going out of style trying to avoid it. I think I have for the most part, but...something's definitely up with me. My health is not 100%. Which is not good at all.


The best thing about this week? Being able to do a bunch of work with Steven and Tidewater
Regional Rep. It's so fun and rewarding and exactly what I want to be doing with my life. I wish I could do it 24 hours a day. Our auditions and callbacks and site-building and everything has been a blast.

I've been enjoying working with Denise as much as ever, but she was sick this past week, which was very sad for her...the poor thing looked like she just needed a week of rest. I hope she feels better this week, and I hope my day-job-work schedule still allows me time to help her out and have fun times with her :)

Let's see, what else, what else...

Oh!

APO held a reading of The Pillowman last night, and...I can't describe to you how wonderful it was. Hands down, it was the best reading TheaterCNU has ever put on. I was so, so, so proud of everyone involved, and it's a play I've been wanting to read/see for awhile...it absolutely exceeded my expectations. I was exhausted yesterday and really just wanted to lay down forever, but I really wanted to see this reading and it was absolutely worth it. I'm so proud of my baby loves :)

Okay. Extreme Makeover Home Edition is making me cry. I think that's enough of an update for one Sunday.

But things that I'm looking forward to...hopefully getting word that my application materials have reached the other theatres, more TRR, more jobs and more Denise time, more money (please dear Jesus I am desperate!), more time with all of my beautiful friends, Lisa Johanson's freaking HOMECOMING, maybe seeing Chris Blake's beautiful sister in Measure for Measure in Richmond next weekend, planning for SETC in a few few short weeks...there's lots of stuff coming up!
