Back on the Road to Funny

A year ago this week I presented my solo thesis show. I hoped that by now I would have reworked the show and been ready to perform. As we know the last 6 months have been quite a challenge and the months before that were finishing up school, Oklahoma and Dada and then teaching, On the Town, a move and an injury. It's not like I have been doing nothing. I have been reading and jotting notes and re-reading my written thesis and script.

Today, I met with Colin a musician in Albany who responded to my Craigslist ad. I went in with no expectations and after I vomited the show's past and the ideas that I have, he was still interested. So, we scheduled a meeting for next Tuesday morning and I gave myself some homework. I am starting with the Definition section of the piece. It's definitely a place I dragged my feet last time but it's the place that will definitely need some musical accompaniment. Now that the piece is in process, I need to also work on some performance ops and funding ops.

Work has been a little light this week so after a massage tomorrow morning I will spend the rest of the day hitting my funny bone.

Oh, and I decided to call another temp agency today and they returned the call immediately. And after I logged all of my 2009 expenses in prep for my taxes I realized that last year was not so bad. This year is only a quarter down and I just feel the potential buzzing.
