So...busy..nearing...maximum...capacity...that...still...allows...functionality.
Anyway, rehearsing two shows at once and working and trying to find a new job is taking a lot out of me. Starting this week I'm declaring "Fuck off, it's Friday." On Friday I will have nothing I have to do. I may do things (including possibly watching television-on-DVD with danny_g, although we're out of Scrubs now and would have to start something else), but I don't have to. Next week, same thing. Oh, the possibilities! And the sleeping!
The finding-a-new-job thing is going well, though. I've had a couple of interviews and am now waiting on annoying government paperwork processing before I can actually start working, albeit on an intermittant basis, in the field for which I trained. Yay!
I went to the Decidedly Jazz Danceworks dance marathon on Sunday. 10 hours of dance classes in a row! No, it's not last-man-standing thing, it's a sponsor-me-as-a-fundraiser-for-something-else-I-do thing, like skip-a-thons and such were in elementary school. I had a great time and I may very well fork over the extra money to sign up for West African dance class next semestre. It was the most fun of any of the classes I did, even including the fact that I was working (and sweating) so hard I soaked through my shirt. Sorry for the unfortunate image there. The last class of the 10 (yes, I did all 10) was belly dancing which involved a lot of holding your arms up in the air. This meant my shoulders hurt the next day. I was expecting sore feet, but not sore shoulders. And of course there's nothing like spending a whole day with dancers to make me feel like the fattest thing on legs. Land whale ahoy!
Oh, speaking of sore feet, I seem to have annoyed my achilles tendon in the course of things. It hurts when I go down stairs. Considering that there are five flights of stairs in my house, this is a bit of a problem, but it could certainly be worse. For examples of how, exactly, see whitewidow's journal.
I must now grab a nap before the night's performing arts activities. Night night (or whaterver).
