come away with me

Filed Under journal | 1 Comment

A little while ago, in my desperate need to get away, but impossibility of it for the moment, I signed up to receive a “daily escape” from the [url=http://away.com/index.html]away network[/url]. The cool thing is that the information is free and I’ve been keeping the trip ideas and tidbits about faraway places for future reference. Because I will explore the world again at some point!

Here are some of the places I’ve visited virtually and plan to someday visit in person…

I’ve had it up to here at work recently, so in an effort to stay positive and not lose my sanity, I like to spend my non-working hours finding way to make myself laugh and smile.

Today, this makes me laugh.

comtradg This week I am finally doing something I’ve been promising myself for a long time. I am going to meet with an acting teacher about joining his scene study class.

I am excited and nervous that he might ask me to do a monologue, or read a scene with him or something.

But it’s good. It’s what I need. No focus on the business. Just an opportunity to act once a week. And soon, RJ & I hope to produce a play together…

me, blushing

Ok, so here’s the deal. I’m a woman and also a Gemini. I reserve the right to change my mind…

Last week I was depressed. This week I’m not as depressed. So I have decided to stick it out, and keep writing here. To keep in cyber contact with y’all. (If you really know me, you knew it, right?) I get depressed and I want to end it all. I hide. And then when I feel better, I come back out to play.

Haha! Tricked ya. (Sorry, Jenni)

I grew a lot last week from the things that went down at work. And I learned a lesson I learn over and over: that I am not perfect. And that not being perfect is actually ok. It means I am human and humble and adaptable and can share my weaknesses with those who learn from me. And then we can all grow together.

Some people tend toward perfectionism and some people suffer it. I suffer from it. It debilitates me sometimes. Last week, I was debilitated. This week I am regaining my strength.

The site is going to go through a little re-design and then I think I’ll feel better. I’ve outgrown this design…

Who’s crazy? Oh yeah, me. (And Erica, I’m glad we got to talk yesterday)

Goodnight, and…

I have decided that I no longer wish to “blog”. My life is such that I now feel the need to go inside, be more private, keep things a little closer to the chest, as it were. And the fact is, I don’t feel the need to have a self-titled place on the web any longer (even if it is an alias of sorts).

My original intention with this site was to have aplace to send people interested in me as an actress, not as a blog. If I decide to actively pursue that road again, I will probably change my name anyway, “back to” my given name in some form or other.

I also wish to spend more time reading about other people, things going on in the world and less time focusing on “me”.

Thank you to those of you who have read this little place on the web regularly ~ let’s talk on the phone or via real email instead, so I can also hear about how you’re doing…

This’ll disappear by early next week, probably.
Mucho amor!

(I will still be reading all of your blogs, though! And look forward to it every evening after work…)
