Schedule please!!!!

yeah, I'm willing to rearrange my life around the play for a couple of months, but I need something solid to rearrange around! I think he's actually getting closer, once he finds out about the MSAE Phys. Ed classes. phew. It's been quite a juggling act!

I was feeling like such a useless clod the other day in rehearsal, I couldn't get my harmonies, I didn't have a dance partner and I wasn't too confident with the dancing either. Not to mention none of the costumes from the last show fit me so they'll have to make me a new one. (I'm not the only one though...) I felt old and out of place and generally a burden. Then he had me do a line or two in my LOW voice and I was both relieved and frustrated. I had finally found my use/place/purpose - the classic Heather low voice, and yet it was the same low voice he's been asking me to use ever since 9th grade!!! oi vey. So much for new challenges and stretching... Although I suppose the whole dance numbers are really my challenge for this time around.

And then tonight after rehearsal Andrew and I were trying to figure out with Noah & Celeste how to do the Lindy Hop basic step and Mr. Franz saw us in the hall and asked me "You know how to do that stuff?" and I said my mom was really good at it and he said maybe he'd have to pair me up with someone who could actually move rather than the person he was thinking of for me. so we'll see. I'm a really good follower...

Still plugging away with work, trying to adjust to the new schedule... but it's good. Sat in on my first meeting today. A bit boring since I didn't know all the jargon or projects, but I assimilate a little more every time.
