Big Fat Liar

After seeing Keith Hennessey's crazy festival in the big, bad city last night I drove Dave, Claire and Dani back to Davis. I stayed at Jennifer's and after staying up way too late chatting, we continued our conversation over coffee this morning. I made the rounds seeing Peter, Victoria, Bella and did a bit of Gravity work with Eric, Daniel & Socorro. It felt good to be back. A little taste of being a big fish in a little pond. It was a boost of my confidence and I got to hang with Jamie and Sarah, as well. I took this great feeling and played my favorite tracks on Mick Christmas CD over and over and sang at the top of my lungs.

This is where things turned. I got back from Davis this afternoon and updated my Facebook status twice.

"tea and Chekhov" at 2:20PM and "has a hankering for sushi" at 3:20PM. I have a full belly and I'm sitting on the couch with a bathing Maxie next to me. It's now 4:22 and I have not had any tea or sushi. I have not cracked open The Seagull. I defrosted some of that African Chicken Stew and a container of rigatoni pasta. I added a little garlic and frozen spinach to a pan and a little of the stew and the pasta. It was yummy, but any way you look at it, I am a big fat liar.

There has not been any tea or sushi. I have done a little work for Jess, but for the most part I have been doing what I do best - watching TV and sitting on the couch.

Tomorrow I have 2 interviews one at a theatre company and another at a restaurant. Here's hoping I put that confident (and not lying) foot forward!

A little of what I'm grateful for:
1. good music
2. time with friends
3. the start of some communication - in this case an email from the TD department and another one from the folks doing the Tennessee Williams rep letting me know (in the weirdest language) that I was not cast
4. leftovers
5. the tea to come
