It is soooo me right now. I got involved with this musical not only because I love theater, but because I was bored and needed something new. I felt like everyone had something big going on in their lives except me, and I needed something that was just mine (well, and Matt's) and so I'd have something else to talk about other than my friends upcoming weddings. When you begin talking more about other people's lives than your own, you know you need a change.
The thing is, I'm exhausted. I really need to exercise, but every time I get a free evening, all I want to do is get into my pjs... which is what I'm doing right now... need to get some motivation. I just can't make myself do anything when I don't have to be at rehearsal.
I love, love, love doing this show. Don't get me wrong. I just forgot how tiring it was and we haven't even upped our rehearsal schedule yet, which will be happening next week. I'm not sure this nearly 30 year old can handle the theatrical pace anymore. Sheesh!!
To be clear, I'm not really complaining. I just saw this photo and thought it was hysterical and so true. I was bored with the rut I was in, so I got into theater, now I'm so frazzled by that pace that I miss my rut. What's a girl to do?
GIRL - i know EXACTLY what you are talking about. It's why i can't do back-to-back shows anymore. I'm getting old! LOL! Not that you are! ;) But i get what you're saying LOL. My first show was when i was 25. Can't do that anymore!
ReplyDeleteI actually pinned that thing awhile back - i found it hilarious & SO me! Haha! I love my routine - work, come home, etc. But then i do theater & while i LOVE it, it is so exhausting & pretty soon i'm ready for the usual routine again! LOL.
But the end will be soon & you will LOVE that you had this experience! I know you know that. And i know you're enjoying yourself anyway. :)
