Oh Tuesday…

Kids, I slept the entire weekend away. And I feel GOOD about it! I got groceries shopped for, and food made for the week. I did some laundry and had Clean Sheet Sunday. I left the house once on Sunday, and once yesterday. Sleeping was my main event, and I do believe I won the gold. I feel human today, thank goodness. I’m ready for a little nosh, and to jump in the shower and bang some hair!

The shows went well opening weekend. Opening night was raucous. I had some issues exiting the stage in blackouts and stumbled into the fireplace on the set scraping the bejesus out of my foot. Sean stumbled into a table and knocked over the water glasses for a scene, which we had to play around and ad lib thru, but we did it. Our energy was so high, the audience was dang near sold out…I had a lot of support there…it was awesome. Saturday we were all just so tired…we had a good audience, smaller but still vocal and enjoying it. We kept feeling like our energy was way slow, but I think that compared to the meth addict speed we were on the previous night, perhaps we were just fine.

I’m thankful for some nights off. I’m heading back to the gym after work. Then over to a girl’s house for a little fellowship. There are a few of us from the salon that are reading the book CRAZY LOVE, and just kind of going through it together…I’m excited for this.

The plumbing is FIXED. And I can afford the payment. My yard is jacked twelve ways from Sunday, just mounds of red mud. How am I going to level this out? Just go out and stomp on it? I need to google this…I thought about buying some sod to lay down, but that’s too expensive I think. So, leveling it out then throwing seed seems to be the better way. My yard is a blank slate at this point…Im debating hiring my brother in law and having him come build a deck…hmmmm? need to decide where the garden will grow as well…

all of these plans and we’re due for more snow the end of this week.

gross.

Spring is coming…someday it will be here!!! Meanwhile, have a blessed Tuesday. MUAH!!!

I got an actual email from THIS GUY. It said: “hey babe, we should hook up. ”

sigh…if only his playlist were PERFECTED….oh well. the search continues.

I’m writing tonight because I won’t have the brain juice tomorrow morning.

Dress rehearsal went well. I screwed the pooch twelve ways from Sunday in my final big scene, but thank the good Lord above my scene partner in all of his randomness, saved my ass. My ass which is finally fully costumed. another blessing. I’m tired, but excited and wired for sound tonight…it’s almost midnight. Almost showtime.

The sewer?? seriously guys.

apparently we have jacked up the city sewer line. I would like to believe it is the city’s fault and they will pay for all of this. who the frack knows…i have THESE THINGS

around the bigger fatter hole in my yard…which are now blinking…INTO MY DAMNED BEDROOM!!!

Here’s a real look:

for the love…

so. tomorrow. working then PLAYing. Thanks for all of your support! it’s here, finally!!! WOO HOOOO!!!

love love love.
new love.
strange love.
quirky love.
it changes everything…

Everytime I come over here and it’s different it shocks the bejesus outta me. Chris is tinkering. Nuff said.

I’m exhausted. Worn smooth out. BUT, the show is ready. We have preview audience tomorrow. I’m still lacking one shirt, but hey. It’ll happen. I’m ready to open.

Today was the first day of Lent. I haven’t been able to do a lot of thinking as I normally would have, but I am giving up a few things, Soda and fast food. Both of those I don’t do a lot of, but enough to say no to. I’m also committing myself  to 20-30 minutes of prayer/meditation each day. I worked on this last year and found it to be harder than I thought…mostly though I am just walking in faith every day. Each day that I step out this door it will be with intention and purpose and with faith in my heart that everythings gonna be alright.

happy Lent.

I started my day with Chris and Cindy, lots of laughing, with a side of bicker. I’m a little surly these days. I am. Could be because ***** BOYS, jump down if you’re squemish**** i’ve had my THIRD visit from Flo this year. THIS YEAR. (it’s the middle of february folks. THIRD VISIT) fucking fuck.perhaps that’s why I’m surely. I need some downtime. Perhaps tonight after rehearsal. Perhaps tomorrow between things…but today? Today started brilliantly over some french toast and lots of coffee. I’m heading to shop for costumes then to spend the day at the theatre…and since it is my heart, because I DO love it…it’s fitting that I’ll be there on VDay.

Hope you’re spending yours the way you want to. I can’t wait to come home and watch the Olympics and do some laundry. I need to grocery shop a bit too but my brain is too scattered to really do that…catfood is in need. Laundry soap…yeah. So not a rollicking romantic evening but since I’m knee deep in the surley, perhaps that is best!

All of my love…well I’m sending that out to you. I love you. Hearts and flowers and all other things gooey.

well. I am thankful it IS Friday.

My plumbing is at a stand still. My backyard is torn to hell and back, but the problem is deeper than the digging machine. The yard is soo wet that the little digging machine he had was sinking. A bigger digging machine would just get stuck to the point of no return. We must pray for dry and warm weather so that this sty will firm up and we can get it fixed.

Stormy is hurt. His back right foot…it’s been that way since Tuesday, and it seems that he’s walking on it more, but he’s limping more too. Make sense? He has also chosen to step outside and disappear. The day I decide to take him to the vet, he vanishes. So. There’s that.

First night on stage was about as much of a clusterfuck as wrangling cats. But we’ve adjusted. Tonight we’re better. Every night we’re better. We were taking notes at 11. Home and in bed before midnight is foreign to me right now. We are all tired. We will be ready to open the show, and the show will be ready when we open. Can’t ask for much more…

Hoping for some appointments today. My book was skim, but tomorrow is a rocking good day!

Have a little lookie at the armageddon that is my backyard. I am mournful. Will it EVER be pretty again? Will we ever gather and laugh and enjoy? Today…it seems hopeless. But I’m a hopeful girl, so we’ve got that going for us.  well. I cant upload. the pics on my comptuer are too big. i’m annoyed. and have to get ready for work. so just trust me, it’s nasty back there.

Happy Friday, ya’ll.

we didn’t finish till 11 last night. which meant I got home by 11:30 and to bed after midnight. I dont have to go in until later but jeez. I’m tired. However, it is really starting to get fun. It’s coming together, and we are all just zinging along and starting to actually ENJOY this! I’m still jacking up a few specific sections…LORD this thing is written in a way…eyeroll. You’ll see. But tonight we move to the stage and the magic begins…

“They” were here, marking my sewer lines yesterday. There are little flags in my back yard. I’m assuming that the plumber will be here to begin the digging today. Hoping the weather holds. We’re getting snow in the southern part of the state, but it shouldn’t make it up to the metro. I’m almost in desperate shape with the laundry. I hope this gets fixed SOON. or that I have some time to hit the laundrymat!!! perhaps that is how I will spend Valentines day, after I go to our first tech!

I made a roast yesterday. One of the bits that my dad gave me from his freezer. Happy Meat. Good stuff. and you know how I cook…things in the pantry were getting slim so instead of my usual onion soup mix and mushroom soup I had potato, carrots, onion and about a half a glug of red wine! Lots of spices, gobs of garlic and let it go all day on the slowwwwwwww speed. I walked in last night and almost wept. The house smelled so good, the food was ready. (of course I shoved it down in like five seconds before leaving to rehearsal) but it just made me sooo happy.  Slow Food. Hot Meal. Something I can eat for a day or two and not have to worry about meals…so today’s Love Thursday is dedicated to my crockpot!

Happy Day, Yall!

That described me yesterday. Sick and tired. I was nauseous all day and all night long Monday. Never slept. Drainage. Bleargh. I know myself well enough to know that when I get run down I go down. Way down. So I stayed home yesterday. I have major guilt for rescheduling my clients, but I had to do it. I slept most of the day. I baked cookies for our bakesale at work* more later* I picked up the house a little.

Dad arrived last night and we went to eat some yummy pizza before I headed to rehearsal. We’re in run-thru’s now. The entire show. We’re supposed to get out of the rehearsal space and onto the stage tonight, but it looks like it’ll be tomorrow. We’ve made great strides the last two nights. Cohesive and back to being fun…hopefully we can build on that night by night and be super ready by the 19th. We are allegedly in line for another “big storm” at the end of next week. I hope…well. We all know what I hope.

One of our girls at the salon is adopting a baby. We’re having a bake sale this week to help with the costs…twenty thousand dollars. That’s the cost. GAH. So if you’re in the area, stop by, throw a few bucks out for some cookies or snacks, and let’s buy us a baby!!!

I’m outta here. Coffee with Dad this morning. Working this afternoon/night. Bring on the hair banging.

PS…digging on the sewer line allegedly begins Thursday.

Another super busy Sunday. I DID get to sleep in. and I think I slept pretty well, I’m still really tired but feel semi-human. I have rehearsal at 2, so I will work lines and stuff around the house till then. Rehearsal this afternoon, then Superbowl party this evening. My Colts are playing! it’s a big big day! Lot’s of friends coming to the bar to watch and have fun! Yay!

In other news. Tragic…my sewer line is completely brokedown. I have water backing up from the washing machine in the garage. My plumber came out, and the digging starts this next week…(during the next snow storm…) I’m at a restricted water level. No dishes (thank goodness the dishwasher is clean and I have just very few so that’s not bad) No laundry, but have had many friends offer up their machines. Flush when you must, and sparce showers…we’re looking at either 500.00 or 3000.00 and won’t know until we dig. Sigh. I am going to attempt my own taxes this year and see what kind of refund I’m getting. I have 1500 already going to pay off a debt. That’s first. Whatever I have leftover, (please GOD let me have some left over) will go to the plumber, and I think I will try to borrow the rest from a bank. Maybe go for some sort of consolidation loan and get the credit cards finished, with a little extra for the pipes. I don’t know. I’ve been walking around in a daze, mumbling prayers and walking into walls because what the HELL does someone do that is in my situation??? Where does it come from?

I think this plan is the most logical. It does however nix off any of my trips for the year that were getting paid for out of the bounty…

I don’t want to whine. I’m getting sad. I just wanted you to know that my plate is…once again…FUCKING FULL. I’m cleaning it as best I can.

I’m going to focus on the play, and really just try to ignore the rest until there is something I can DO about it. Until we know.

So…ok kids. I”m out. Coffee. Lines. House picking up. Cereal. Bills. We’ll see how this morning goes…then off to work.

What a guy! This one? He’s one of the best. One of the urban legends. One of the smart ones, that comes with a side of cute and awesome. My Obi Wan. Friends from another life…and making the most out of this one. My dear boy? Happy Birthday! I love you! You. Are. Family. You are my Guy # 3.
