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.

Losing things... like earrings and people


Lots has happened since my last post. I think I haven't posted as there was almost too much to say and not enough of it fully processed.

I have been going through a lot of loss lately. People seem to be either dying or leaving. Sometimes I think about this and it makes me extremely sad but most of the time it really just makes me want to get out there and live.

I have also been grieving a little bit over the loss of my time. Personal time away from work or rehearsal seems to be very scarce. I would never dream of giving up rehearsal so I hope a solution to this work thing maybe comes along. Maybe all I need is another really great vacation to keep me going. Too bad Africa just happened.

I'm trying to balance the scales of my life right now. I don't feel complete without practicing art, but practicing art makes me feel like my life is in chaos. I think the only logical solution is for the government to better supplement artists. Right? Hey, a girl can dream.
