Yesterday? Kicked My Ass
I don't know why I feel like I was run over by a truck while I slept, but I most assuredly do. Even the ibuprofen I took about 45 minutes ago isn't helping.
The day started out easily enough. A couple of blog posts. I made a book (It's AWESOME, I'll post pictures later). I figured out how to potentially streamline the bookbinding process so I can make more than one a day. I may, provided I do this right, be able to make three or more a day. Which would be the preferable outcome.
Then I worked on lines for Tartuffe. For which it seems I have roughly half of the lines in the play. I know I don't really, but it sure feels like it right now. I was clearly not going to get any of that work done here at home, because I kept finding other stuff to do. And I knew that if I went to my office, I would either fall asleep on the couch or find other stuff to do there. So I went to Starbucks, got some iced tea and some water and a granola bar, and then drove to campus, where I worked on my lines in the car for 30 minutes before rehearsal. No one could bother me there, there were no alternative activities to distract me. It was ideal . In fact, I now understand why Danny Peterson used to learn his lines in the bathtub. What else are you going to do?
So then there was rehearsal 6-9:30 or so for me, and then the gym. Where I did an hour of cardio. Then I came home--around 10:45 or so--fed the cats, moved the veggies onto the porch because of the frost warning, killed a spider, FINALLY got to shower, FINALLY had a snack, and went to bed at 12:45. Where I couldn't sleep. Until after one.
Six hours later, I was up again, to prepare for my day. Which looks easy on paper, but I'm not convinced. I suspect that truck--the one that ran over me last night--is still lurking in the neighborhood.

Oh! Congratulations on the hour of cardio. Good grief, that's great. I sure miss walking.
A frost warning....how exciting! It's still reaching the nineties here. I sure would like seasons.
Hope you feel better soon!
