work, work, work. school, school, school. sick, sick, sick. i have a new best friend, “vick’s vapo-rub”. we spent a long time apart, i really had no need to hang out with her, but it seems lately she’s been a lot more useful to me. this slimey concoction seems to have been made by the hands of the gods (or the many hands of one god if you’re doing the hindu-thing).
got hired as a tree planter in northern ontario this summer which i may very well do if other things don’t pan out. right now i’m being considered for a job with shakespeare by the sea, and i should be hearing back on the festival antigonish job within the next week. other theatre companies have my resume but i haven’t heard word from them yet (but it hasn’t even been a week since i sent them all out), others i should look into. i want to apply to as many jobs in theatre as i can for this summer, but i do have my preferences. it’s not like i’m blindly whoring myself out to whoever will take a resume. here’s hoping that it works out though. oh, and if you’re interested, i will still stay at staples but just take a leave of absence while i work the other job this summer. this will be my fifth back to school at staples if i’m there, and while i really do enjoy my job, i have to start looking for work in theatre if i want to do anything with my degree. tree planting is a nice back up because it pays so well and it would be an interesting experience.
the summer months are going to be interesting; along with working i’m also going to montreal for a few days come hell or high water. road trip, aww yeah.
right now, my list of demands for the cosmos and all that i can’t control go as follows:
- stop snowing. get snow off roads, and warm the hell up.
- get this damn virus out of my body. i hate being sick.
- let sleep make me feel rested and not groggy.
- make courtney love come to my house and ask for my hand in marriage.
“demands” is a strong word… i think “hopes” is more along the lines of what i wanted to say
jade is coming down in a month… i’m excited beyond words. i’ll leave it at that since i said “beyond words”
i’m going to bed.
