Well. The showcase video is done--one more thing that I don't need to worry about--and one step closer to the end of this road.

The end of this week is such a major event. For some reason, it feels bigger than just the showcase. So much happens in the next two weeks that this feels like it's the windup for something incredible.

This week, more than any other, I live showcase. I have 3 rehearsals tomorrow, plus burning my preshow cd's, and then 3 more rehearsals on Wednesday, plus hanging and setting all the lights, and then Thursday is dress! Oh my goodness.

The countdown is on. Four more days. Eep!

One year ago today: I realized that my life's built around repetition a lot, particularly because I'm in theatre. That was the weirdest thing to me about Kat and Christian's wedding. We only did it once. I'm so used to rehearsing everything for months, and then having anywhere from two to ten (or more) times in front of an audience to get it right. If something doesn't go right in one performance, you fix it for the next time. That's just the way life goes. At the wedding, the ceremony finished, and I was all ready to do it again to fix the glitches. What do you mean, it's just done once?
