What would like to be doing in two years from now?


August 20:

I have a new boss and this is a question on his "getting to know you" page. Um...HOW THE FUCK WOULD I KNOW?

Probably not the answer he's looking for.

I remember a time when I thought I knew the answer. How did all that turn out? I'm not a mom. My marriage is a wreck. Another relationship is in the toilet. I take three medications daily to keep from going off the deep end. My acting career is well...let's just say Off-Off Broadway is not where I wanted it to be at this point. Instead I sit for eight hours a day in a beige cubicle, staring at a computer.

I know what kind of answer he wants for this question and I'll suck it up and write some corporate babble for him, but seriously--this is not the question you want staring you in the face first thing in the morning in the middle of a very bad week.

Retooling


August 4:

Both my life and this website.

The website is easier-Dave's going to help, even though I'm a complete bitch and he probably wishes he'd never met me at this point, but there you have it. I've had new headshots taken this summer and they turned out really good (if I do say so myself) so there's no time like the present to get the actor side of this website into shape and really make a push to get out there. I think I should probably hide the blog though. My style here has been a little tmi for most people's taste and while I'm not ashamed of that...well, I don't know if it's the best idea. What do I know though, maybe it is?

Retooling my life. Well, that's a different story and one I'm not too keen to share with you right now. Career wise I need to get my ass out there. Being an office manager was never my dream you know. I've betrayed myself on that one, settling for something that's easy to do. All the dreams I had growing up, all the wonderful opportunities I was given, my great school, the scholarship, the support and belief people gave me and had in me...squandered, wasted, and ignored.

Bipolar. It sucks. Kicking my ass this year. I didn't help by going off my meds like an ohlemmeseehere CRAZY PERSON. Enough said.

Life. Well, I haven't been a kind person this year, in fact I've been a downright bitch and I still don't know what I'm doing. I'm hurt and I've hurt and that's all I'm going to say right now.
