Sunday
Summary
Wow-wow-wow.
This week starts the wedding season for which I have been eager awaiting! Ghost
gets married this coming Saturday and Willis will say her vows two weeks after
that. Eeek. It’s all so exciting and it feels like it’s happening so quickly.
I’m sure it doesn’t for them, since they’ve been planning for months, but for
me, it seems like it’s all gone by so fast.
This
week saw the rise of a new manuscript. Huzzah. It’s about fucking time that I
started writing something new. I’ve been super focused on my creative thesis
that new work has largely gone by the wayside. So the beginnings of this new
work have been a nice reminder that yep, I am a writer, and I can think of new
things to write about!
My
show is in too few days to give a number. I have no idea where this prep went,
or if I’m even as ready as I want to be. It’s been rough these last few weeks
digging deep enough to find the resolve to keep sweating and training, cutting
and keeping my eye on the stage. But with the help of a fantastic support system,
I’ve managed to rally and will be competing soon. There will be a Sunday
Summary in a few weeks that says something like, “Show’s over. Off season. Time
for pizza and wine.” What I’m learning is that this first prep is going to be
the hardest because this is all new, and the preps following this one will be
easier because I’ll know what to expect. So I’m trying not to be too hard on
myself. Like Ghost said, this first show is just a rough draft. How very poetic
coming from my engineer brother.
Maybe
the most fantastic and exciting news from this week is that I get to see Efed
for Thanksgiving! It all happened so fast on Friday – she and I were messaging
about holiday plans and I told her that I had a few days off … and next thing I
knew I have a ticket booked to Germany to spend some time with her. I cannot
wait! She’s training for her first half right now, so I’m hoping we’ll get in
some good cold weather runs. Yay for sister time.
