I visited Travis recently for more than a week! This was due to the fact that I got a cold while I was in Shreveport, and wasn't going to travel unless I was feeling at least 90% better, so we didn't actually get to do much, BUT... cuddling with him all week was AWESOME. I am seriously in love with that fool. :-)
And then... I got sick again. But I went to the doctor yesterday, and the antibiotics he gave me are handy-dandy: I feel so much better already. Hopefully, my immune system will be tamed back into submission after this, instead of being a lazy slacker.
Speaking of lazy slackers... I don't have a job. Truth be told, I haven't even been looking. I don't want a job. My mother is starting to get massively pissed about this, especially since she had to pay for the expensive doctor visit.... but I seriously just want TWU and/or Chase Bank (via student loan) to give me lots of money to go to school instead. I mean, going to school full time and doing a bunch of shows, I'm not going to have time for a job. I mean, yes, it's technically possible, but working and doing Drood nearly killed me. Working, shows, and school!? No, thank you. In the meantime though... don't expect any Christmas presents from yours truly. My bank account is a wasteland.
BUT, cool news: I'm nearly finished polishing a new script for Fight Boy Theatre's Feast Of Plays II, and I'm directing as well! Yayness! It needs a title ASAP for marketing purposes, and I'm working on it. I think I've decided on one, but it kind of needs to roll around in my head for just a bit.
Also, Half Empty got Honorable Mention by associate critic Laura Watson in The Column (a regional publication of theatre reviews) for Best New Play of 2010. That's pretty nifty around these here parts, so I'm quite proud of it.
The best thing about all of this... is that I feel like a real writer now. And I have so many more plans, writing-wise. It's all very exciting.
