Sometimes I love being a theatre student! Today, we were doing a dress rehearsal for "Children See, Children Do," which is a skit about child abuse (one of my favorite skits), and in it, Jordan beats Laurel and I up.

So, normally, we have it all choreographed out, and we know exactly what to do, when to fall, and everything, but there's this one point where Jordan pushes me away, and today when he did, I was standing at a funny angle, and he pushed at a funny angle. Anyways... I went over backwards, and I could just feel it coming. I felt myself go straight over, and I could sense everything coming, but couldn't stop it.. first my bum hit the ground, and then it was like I bounced, and my head hit the ground. I must have put out my had to stop myself, because my wrist hurts like hell. It didn't at fisrt--that was more of a mild headache and jarring--but now it hurts to bend my fingers (especially my thumb), and I'm working pretty much one-handed. That's not quite normal, is it?

I wouldn't dare let Jordan see how bad it hurt, though. He felt so bad about it... like it was all his fault, even though it was completely accidental and he didn't mean it. So, yah. That was my interesting and exciting adventure for this afternoon. :o) Fun times, hey?

Ah, the life of a theatre major... full of danger and suspense.
