One











....singular sensation.




Just in case you haven't heard i'm doing the show A Chorus Line, It's been an amazing experience getting to do this show, even if it is at a crappy theatre (and i'm practically doing it for free) . I'm getting to do the most amazing show with some of the most talented people in Chicago. It really wouldn't have happened if we all hadn't taken the initiative and given all that we possibly could, which i'm very proud of because that's how the show was created in the first place.




I'm also completely obsessed with it, i'm reading the biography of the show and how it came to be right now, its called On The Line and was written by three of the people who lived it. It's kind of the center of my entire existance right now. The show is an Audition, and it's helped me a lot because that's my second job, Auditioning. I'm doing it more and more and i think i'm getting better at it. I've already got three shows that will take me into the end of the year and two of them actually pay enough for me to pay rent. I feel really lucky to be getting cast but also really proud because i know i'm getting these gigs because i'm talented and a hard worker.




So all in all life is going really well.....except i must be bipolar because the past few weeks especially i absolutely loathe my job... the tea one....well it's not so much the job as it is the customer service aspect....I feel like people can talk to me like a lesser being because i'm behind a counter and in a hat and because its a corporation i have to just sit there and take it. if there's one thing i miss about living in Texas...(besides the warm weather more than two months a year) is southern hospitality. it's a vicious circle of rude costumers (who clearly hate thier own lives) making me hate my life and want to be rude back....and the number of people it takes for me to get to that point is getting smaller and smaller. i think i just need a break...luckily i have the show, and i'm looking forward so much to my family coming this weekend.




Lana and Nathan and Mom and Dad are coming to Chicago Ladies and Gents....get ready for it.




and because i only read blogs with pictures on them, here are some of me :)

Hey, whos the good looking guy in the red shirt and pants? Rudeness is ugly and maybe they are in a bad mood cause they messed in their pants.
I need a good dose of Al Mac and so I'm heading to Chicago tomorrow.
BTW never never never let them win...just remember that you are better than them.
