wake up your saints, jenny, i need them, jenny, i need them today!

So, if my friends and family already didn't know enough about why I wanted Icarus, they're going to.

Amazing opportunity to perform not only a new work, but something completely beyond the realm of what I may ever do again--a different culture, a completely different style and pedagogy. Also, it's an amazing opportunity to experience a taste of touring/moving a show around, and "showcasing" it--hell, I would stick around this town and just work full time if it meant I could go with it to ACTF. ALSO, it's a mainstage production, so to be even called back...that's really all I could've asked for.

Honestly, I'll be a bit (okay, maybe a few bits) bummed if I don't make it, but it's not the end of the world. It'd be nice to have something to show for all the work I've put into myself and my craft for the past two years, let alone my whole acting "career" thus far, but I won't tank if I'm passed over.

I just hate playing the waiting game. So I'm sitting here singing National songs to myself (quietly, so Ashlen doesn't wake up), and wishing I hadn't had that one soda today because I promised myself I'd commit to the 8-glasses-of-water-per-day habit, and I'm mentally exhausted and physically exhausted and realizing that now is the time for me to go to sleep.

Addenum 4.10.11: Oh yeah, forgot to mention: I made it. So. Happy.
