I know; you’re probably freaking out. Where in the hell is Sarah? Is she alive? Why is she so damn quiet?
Because, my dear readers, Sarah is buried under a mountain of PowerPoint slides. We are playing a furious game of catch-up around here. It’s a game that I HATE. I’m the Virgo who is there early, prepared, and ready to go. I’m the first one off-book. I like being in control. “Catch-up” is not in control.
And I am so freakin’ tired. We’ve had rehearsal every night thus far, and I never really realized how I can’t not be 95% when I’m onstage. Even if I’m exhausted and my body is saying, “Hey, just mark this one,” I can’t once I hit stage. It’s a sickness.
Like the time in The Women when I managed through a three-hour rehearsal only to go the ER right afterwards. Turns out, I wasn’t convincing anyone I wasn’t ill; Harry later said, “Well, you were slurring your words.. and you were walking funny. Oh, and you drooled a few times.”
People are occupying my nap office today. Bastards. I guess I could go take 15 in my car instead. I did that yesterday, when I parked my car for my haircut. I just sat in my car, cocked my seat back, and had 10 minutes to myself. It was awesome.
As much as I love my job, I would love it five times more if I worked closer to my home.
