Gee, you sound just like me -- I keep piling commitment after commitment on my plate, and loving every minute. It's a habit I've never, ever been able to break myself of -- as soon as I let one thing go, I pick up another to fill its place! Anyway, you'll have a blast. I miss doing theater. I acted all throughout high school and college and haven't been in a play since. I've thought about auditioning for one of the gazillion community theater productions around here, but have never been able to bring myself to give up my vacation time for rehearsals. I keep saying I'll do a summer production one of these days, but it hasn't happened yet.

I didn't think I'd get picked...I just wanted to audition to test myself, to see if it was something worth pursuing in the future. If I'd known I'd get picked, I don't know if I'd have willingly taken on yet another thing!

Oh, you didn't tell me all these fabulous and interesting details! What a great story! And good for you, testing yourself. People don't usually do that, we're too complacent. It's good to surprise yourself!

I don't think I said, but I did act in high-school. Loved it, so fun. The adrenaline was a trip. Weirdly, I suddenly found myself 'popular' at school after that... Which made me roll my eyes. Being Medea makes me cool?

It's going to be in January--I'll tell you all the details in person (or on the phone) :). If you haven't already told Ima, please hold off for now. This is the kind of thing that's going to be tricky to navigate with the parents.

And yeah, it's life coaching...but I'm usually very skeptical. This particular teacher convinced me.

I figured that out on my own-of course I didn't and won't say anything!
