I Mean It This Time
It's done. Proofed (by Dave too), printed and stapled and just waiting to be delivered tomorrow in class. Now I just have to:
1)Edit, finish, copy and bind my play. Mail it to the required competition and submit the other copy to Micki.
2) Grade all of the speeches and papers I haven't graded yet and then enter and submit grades. I hate to do it, but I've got some failing students. I told them what they needed to do to pass, and they just didn't do it. Nasty surprises ahead for them, I suspect, and possibly some complaints for me. I'm not looking forward to those conversations, despite having all the backup I'll need in the form of grades and attendance records.
3) Audition. This would include working on my audition piece. Prologue. Henry V.
4) Perform in John's directing scene. Which should be fun and take next to no time, provided I'm a bit more solid on the lines. These, stuck in my head almost from day one, unlike the torturous things I had to try to say correctly in Independence. Go figure.
5) Kill a number of people in my acting class final. As of this afternoon's class, I will be killing off the characters of Luis (public shooting), Heather (poison, like her character has poisoned my soul) and Karl (probably hand to hand as he tries to kill Heather--She's MY kill, dammit). I have also been hired to kill John, but everybody wants to kill him, so I suspect I won't get that one. Yolanda is supposed to go batshit crazy and kill me.
6) Endure my jury. Defend myself and not get too bloody in the process. Thank goodness I only have two more of these to go. (And they'll each be followed by the semi-annual post-jury drinkage with Yolanda, one of my favorite parts of the semester.)
7) Take my jazz history final.
8) Sleep. Sleep lots. Sleep often.
And then I'm done for the semester.
Of course, after that...
