Interesting Developments

A really good friend of mine moved to Los Angeles. He had dinner with a producer friend of ours and told him about my solo show. The producer friend asked to read the script which I sent. He liked it. Then he asked to send a DVD. I got over my anxiety of how terrible I looked on DVD and sent it to him. If he likes it, then I might be able to do my show in LA!

AND in really wonderful news, we’re heading back to Manhattan. I’m so excited!! I know there are issues with living in the city…but it’s going to be a huge improvement to our lives, I know it.

Yoga

I went to yoga and it felt really good to move around.  There were two other women who have similar due dates to mine.  The rest of the lot were women were about to give birth.  The instructor is terrific and she’s also a doula so she sprinkles our class with little facts here and there. 

I met another woman in the class who is about 14 weeks along and went and grabbed lunch in K-town. Afterwards we went shopping and I bought some cute tops for my slightly expanding body.

Organized taxes for appointment next week. My desk looks as though it threw up with receipts and papers strewn about.

Went out to eat at the sushi joint in our hood with J. I wasn’t hungry so I just had an avocado role and miso soup. I’ve been eating a lot during they day: big breakfast, fruits, veggies, soy milk. The evening is just sort of tough because I usually feel nauseous.

Easy Come Easy Go

I decided to turn off Adium on my computer today. The result is that I am focused and my concentration isn’t broken nearly as much as it is when IM is one. My very close friends I can count on my hand. My buddy list is bloated and unwieldy. There is nothing wrong with these folks. But I find that the talk is often idle chat, time wasting and sometimes, due to misunderstanding, argument inducing. Many people are acquaintences who I probably wouldn’t keep in touch with if they weren’t on my list.

When I’m not on IM, I am in more tune with my body and feeling. Putting IM on means that I don’t want to concentrate, I want to coast through the day. This is not good at all. It means my attention is away from things like maintaining my acting career or writing a new page in my script.
