5 days after curtain...


I feel all kindsa crazy. I feel like I didn't necessarily relish the play; or even take in that it was ACTUALLY happening. Then I found out my sister is really hurt about some of the stuff in the play. It's hard because I never wanted to hurt anyone. That makes me really sad. We haven't talked yet, but I hope to talk to her soon. I hope she knows how much I love her and how much she means to me. It's hard when there's even a little bit of your personal life in a fictionalized piece because people know who they are; but they may not know where they end/you & the character begin, and where the character is different.

I also found out a cast member won't be coming back for the second run; not because of anything personal, but their own life. I found myself very weepy about it, and still want to cry. I know things change and life is what it is...but I will really miss them, and their presence and interpretation of the character made the journey so much more enjoyable, especially during the tough times.

I'm not really sure what the rest of the week is going to be like. I went back to work, and am looking forward to the cast party this Saturday. I think I just need to be quiet and reflective more than anything else; and hopefully can acknowledge that I was able to reach one of my long-held goals.
