I actually did it.

Katrina called my name to perform today and I actually got up, handed her my script and character analysis sheet, and proceeded to belt out Over the Moon. I chickened out on leap of faith but the rest was all there, at the required volume. I spent my entire morning freaking out, thinking up every excuse so I wouldn't have to go today, fighting off nausea and sweating obscenely for the low-double-digit weather outside. But I did it, and to be completely honest it wasn't nearly as difficult as I thought it would be. Which it isn't. We're not talking rocket science, I realize, but it's still getting up in front of an audience, purposely thrusting yourself into the spotlight and expected to do the space justice if you've already insisted on commandeering their attention. Word, self.

There is a whole lotta love between the cast members of Lord of the Rings. A whole lotta sweet, unconstrained public love. The pictures, man!

Godiva caramel is wicked good. It's sweeter, more syrupy than most others. Delicate and gourmet in an honest, unpretentious way that only genuine articles have about them. It's not a quality you can bestow, but something that's inherent and objective. Because I believe in the existence of such things.


there's a lot of things that no one likes but, I want the answers now

Right back at ya, babe. Bravery has a rare and beautiful way of cropping up, but somehow if the motives are true, you can't help but succeed.

Those boys! *puddle of schmoop* Such sweethearts!

I miss you too, darlin'. As for reading, did you mean something I wrote or those recommendations I keep promising? But both are forthcoming, as the preliminary recs are almost all html.-ed and I signed myself up for yet another challenge that's due the 31st, so either way you'll be a happy puppy before the end of the week.

:) Thank you good sir. It really, really shouldn't have been a big deal at all, not after Play On if not any of the other productions I've been involved with over the years. And yet. I was ill, Jon. It was ridiculous. I can be so ridiculous sometimes. But yeah, me and my bad self, we pulled it out. Mind over matter, baby.
