La la la.

So it's Friday afternoon and I haven't managed to get my sorry ass to sleep. I spent part of the night at work screwing around on InterPals, a pen pal site I just found and joined, and then after work I went to the gym and killed myself for at least an hour and a half. I did the TreadClimber machine for half an hour (it said I burned like 430 calories!) and then lifted weights the rest of the time. I am so dead. ::sigh:: I like the muscles I'm developing, though, so I guess I'll persevere. I've lost about 22 pounds so far, and as I've decided to get a tattoo for every 25 I lose, I've made an appointment at a tattoo parlor to get something small inked into my back. I'm pretty excited. My second tattoo!

I don't think I mentioned that I didn't make that play last week in Menominee Falls. Wah. I kinda thought I had it, but oh well. The play I tried out for this week in Beaver Dam, Moon Over Buffalo, really doesn't have a part that fits me (I mean, I could play one, but there were others with more appropriate builds and ages), but I expect to at least be part of the backstage crew. I need to be part of a show this fall. Once I lose more weight, I should be able to play ingenues and romantic leads. I'm 30, but I can pass for younger as it is, so once I lose weight it should be even easier. Meh. I expect to get a call sometime tonight from the director...I heard her say that she will call either way, which I take to mean 'whether or not a person is cast.' Plus, she knows I will gladly work on crew, so I'd think she'd call and let me know what's up either way.

There is a play I could go out for in West Bend this fall, but it auditions after Moon has already closed in mid-October, so I might as well get myself involved. Theatre makes me happy. I've never done crew before, but I think it will be a rewarding and educational experience. I need to feel like there's a part of me doing something more important than just work and slacking off.

I'm feeling kinda formless right now...probably has something to do with lack of sleep and the fact that earlier I spent two hours in the sun cleaning out my messy Jeep. I have to go to the bank yet to get a little money for the weekend and I need to maybe catch a nap. More Jeep-cleaning is in order as well, though I doubt I will finsh today. I'm already losing steam and Maulla (mow-ya, the cat) has been eyeing me sullenly for a while now, since by now she and I are usually snoring in my bed downstairs. She is so controlling.

I'd better get off here now...ugh.

Toooodles.
