The Diary of Queen Mothy |
Add a Little Cheese to that Whine written @ 6:43 PM on March 02, 2003 "Once Upon a Mattress" was fair. In any case, it was a helluva lot better than "Our Town," which Lakota East High School performed in the fall. If you thought "Our Town" couldn't get any worse, you didn't see the show at LEHS. But whatever. The musical was better. I think Schmaltz is finally getting hold of the old magic and is learning to warp it to suit his vision. It may be some years before LEHS gets a taste of its former glory as far as theatrics go, but to be perfectly fair, I think they're on their way. The next night I saw "Sweet Charity"-- and my beloved sets-- here at NKU. It was very good! I was out late last night, so I'm very tired now, which explains why I don't have anything of great value to report here tonight. I guess I have a lot of things on my mind, and I'm slightly too distracted to put forth an entry of any quality. For one thing, school is just too distressing. I have a lot to do and no more motivation to do it. I want to cut down on my work this week so I can have my spring break to myself to fiddle with more amusing endeavors, but what can you do when you want to fiddle with those amusing endeavors now? Second of all is the continuing story of woe of my parents' dissolving marriage. I really hate how they're unwittingly putting such pressure on me in the wake of the other burdens on my back, but I'm not about to launch into another diatribe over them. I've been toying with the idea of confronting my dad about it-- after all, we all know Mom's thoughts but what about the ever-enigmatic father o' mine?-- but every time I sit down to write him that fateful e-mail, my courage dissipates. How dare we ever forget the disaster from the last time I raised an issue of his mental stability and sense of reality to his face? Third, I'm just now beginning to face the punishment known as stagemanaging for theater. But we all knew that! Yet it's the addition of me ascending to a true art direction position which is cause of added stress. Fourth, because I've focused so little on art these days, I can feel that's beginning to suffer as well. There's a student show in a few weeks and I have to get my shit matted... like tonight hopefully. But remembering the horrors of matting from high school, I've been putting that off too. Fifth, I've realized that my obsessions/interest/hobbies, what have you, run in cycles. Just last week I thought the Harry Potter thing was under control, and today I woke up with a horrible case of Potteritis as I realized how that horrible important June 21 date is close to rolling around. *big grin* Sixth, Christine writing that nice thing about my books the other day has given me revitalized energy... and stress because I want a huge block of time to sit down and write, not 20 minutes here, 20 minutes there. That's annoying. Ooooooh, no use in bitching. I guess the most I can do is take it a day at a time. Welp, here it goes, resigned once more to the aspirations hanging over my back... I think I'll try matting now...
