I never write this blog with the idea that anyone actually is listening but my computer. But I suppose that's how cyberspace works. You put it out there and it's there. This blog is that silent listener for me. It's my horrendously underpaid psychiatrist.

Becoming "Lucky"

So many crazy things happening in my life lately. It's been good. Feel like I have learned and grown a lot. This is what the twenties and new experiences are all about right? This morning I am going to be doing a scene in front of a professor from Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett. If you don't know it, it is a very crazy existential play mostly about people waiting for something (perhaps God). I play this very random character in it called "Lucky" who is ordered around by another person all the time and carries lots of bags. I think the prof gave me the role in an attempt to try and embarrass/challenge me but I think mostly it has just been a really difficult role for me to come into.
I'm gonna go in today and slobber on stage, mess up my hair, look like an idiot, and go on a crazy rant. Lord knows how all of this will go over. I'll have to get back to you on this one.
