Tech Day for White Christmas

Today is another day of rehearsals. Well, … tech day. To some people, it would seem like a long day, but to me, it really feels so much easier than what I went through last week. We started at 1:15pm and will probably be done by 10:30/11pm. Trust me, that is so much easier than what we had to go through last week. I feel like I am on some sort of vacation now. I am not exaggerating.
Not long ago, I would have thought of this as a busy time. It is crazy how much things can change in a short period of time.
We added costumes today as well. I must admit that I can get irritable if my costumes make me look ugly when I am supposed to be sexy. If I am a specific character, I get it … however, it hits me wrong when I am supposed to be attractive - and it looks like I am not. As a woman, this is a nightmare. I have this wig that I am just not a fan of. It may be in the correct style for the period, but it is not the correct style for my face. I don’t look good.
I’m on the negative side today because I found out that I have been disillusioning myself with my grandma’s condition. Turns out the open heart surgery she will be going into is highly risky and Tuesday is her last day before she goes under. I wish I was there. I love this show and the cast but I really don’t want to be here right now. I want to be with my family.
