I can't get over how ridiculous rehearsals for The Tempest have been. I don't think I've ever acted so crazy in public in all my life. Anyway, I think we've reached the point I always love--the "this shit just got real" moment when directors say how long we have until opening in terms of rehearsals, just to put it into perspective.
This year so far has been really good. It's been refreshing and new for me. I feel like a different person, and I feel like I have a new life because of that.
I've really been enjoying my Cell Biology labs, which is weird for me because I've always hated labs. In a way, I'm excited about this because it means that I'll be able to deal with the lab aspect of research, so I won't have to have a job where I enjoy half of it (field work) and hate the other half (lab). However, at the same time, it makes me a little sad to find that I enjoy this and now have no aversion that would compel me to duck out of science and pursue something else like a career in the arts.
It's almost as if I subconsciously had my mind made up that I would someday change direction, but that decision doesn't make much sense anymore. I'm having to look at my life in a new way now. These decisions are real now, not just theoretical.
I usually try to have some ending to these posts, but I'm at a loss here. This post has no conclusion. It's just a fragment, not a summary of something larger.

I'm glad you're having a good year--I am too! I've had a lot of fun with you and I'm lovin' it!!!
Tempest rehearsals are something else. That's all I can think to say :)
I can't wait to start having Halloween fun! I talked to Lance--Oct 10 is still when we'd like to do ValleyScare. I may have a coupon...Moreover, I think they have coupons at the Bearcenter. We should check it out.
We need to go to Screamtown, too!!!!!
