whether it was believed or not, the penguin apologised to the pelican and squirrel

yet another monday is upon me. but for me it is still technically sunday, for, despite my valiant attempts to the contrary, i have not slept since about 8:30am. i mostly blame the cold and flu tabs i've been forced to take in desparation for sinus relief as i struggle through this most horrific infection. unfortunately, i don't think they're doing much more than keeping me awake and somewhat blank. it did, however, make work seem much more fun that it really is. perhaps i should get stoned in this fashion more often (though, not if i can help it).

i can't believe i made it through the past week at all really. waking up with a head feeling like lead and full of puss and pain on monday afternoon, did nothing but kick my week off 'oh so wonderfully!'. pain and puss continued on tuesday and right through til mid thrusday, which made calling actors who wanted to be in my show somewhat difficult. never fear though! for i am tech savvy and can email!!!! let us ignore those who a) don't check their email, b) write the wrong address down (one girl actually did this, telling me she had done as she corrected it. lucky for her i had voice and energy enough to call her for her callback), c) either don't check their inbox often enough, or have a stupid spam filter that seems to think gmail is spam, and thusly the user is not a regular spam folder checker, or the email is kicked back at me with more force than the initial pass. in fact, i've had one email return to me TWICE! i only sent it ONCE! gah! at least most of my cast appear to be intelligent enought to be able to correct their and my errors in relation to this...problem.

call backs on thursday were hectic (as i had imagined they would be), but i gave the illusion of being mostly in control of the situation and managed to not kill anyone or anything. i must say thank you to the two cast members who put up a fabulous fight for the title role. it was one of those hard to decipher photo finishes that eventually came down to who would make a better indian chief. but i had fun making them think they'd lost out to the other. sometimes my evil is cunning. or my cunning is evil. i don't really know. i'm hoping now that i am able to put together a good show. i'm still wondering why i actually said yes, but i'm sure i can positively prove myself. my leads are fabulous, and i'm hoping that the rest of the clan can help support them well. oh well, it'll be good practice at leadership if nothing else.

so, with pan now fully cast and this sinus infection slowly dissipating, i might be able to start thinking a little bit more about what i want to do. i've already started sketching the poster ideas and have been researching on teh intartubens (TM) for random indicators of creative help, i think it could be going somewhere. i've kinda, maybe, already, sorta got the first draft of a banner to advertise the show wherever i can think of (which will most likely be only here and myspace *sigh*) but it's at least a start. with luck (and why am i convinced it's the middle of the afternoon all of a sudden?) i'll be able to create a fabtabulous poster design that'll win the people over and trick entice them to come and see the show. i also need to ask permission to put a poster up in the staff room at work. so much to do.

fingers crossed also that things go well with the interview i have on wednesday. i like these sorts of surprises, and with luck (again) i'll be able to do something that is much more flexible to my existence as a functional human being. more details when i know more myself. /coy

til next....
