... Might be a quarter-life crisis
Hmm. Not a whole lot to talk about.
Jen and I went shopping--again--today. I've actually bought some very needed stuff in the past couple of days. You'd think that I was the one on vacation or something like that. Let's see.
A dress for my sister's grad. Four bright postcards--yellow, blue, green, and orange--that I'll frame and put in my kitchen when I move. Each has a word on it--Cherish, Create, Dream, and Marvel--and then phrases about that word around the edge. A pair of jeans at Unlimited Blue for $10. Oh, the Places You'll Go, by Dr. Seuss, for my sister's grad gift. A birthday present for Lynsae. Welcome to the World, Baby Girl, by Fannie Flagg, for me. I think that's it. And almost all of it was on sale, cheap to begin with, or necessary.
What else is new? I'm planning to take ballet and jazz through Decidedly Jazz Danceworks. I've wanted to dance for a long time, and it's a good skill for an actor to have, so what better time to start? They have spring courses that start at the end of May and run through the end of June, so that'll be a good start, and hopefully I'll be able to keep going with it in the fall. I want to take ballet through to at least an intermediate (if not semi-advanced) level, and jazz and possibly one other style to a proficient level. The more I know, the better.
I had some other not-so-exciting-but-I-can-pretend news that I was going to share, but I can't remember, for the life of me, what it was. I think that's a sign that it's time for me to go to bed.
Banff tomorrow. I wonder if Norm will be around/free. I hope so.
One year ago today: I'm not trying to make myself sound all great, but I just thought it was a really interesting conversation, because we've all been seeing the same thing from different perspectives. I'm seeing it as, I needed to be broken and reach the bottom before God brought me back to the place where I could be a part of the team--both where I could appreciate it more, and where he could use me more, because more of my crap has been dealt with. For them, it seems to me that it's more the fact that they're realizing--and not taking for granted--the blessing of the team unity.
