Come together

Right now I'm in a mixed state of excitement and fatigue, the latter the obvious result of waking up a few minutes ago. The 85 push-ups and sit-ups in stage combat class certainly added their own flavor to the mix. As the class progresses, I strive to look inward more often with each new move or skill we pick up. It is frustrating when I lose that inward emotional control during a sequence, so my efforts in concentration must be doubled to truly grow as a stage combatant. Hell, as an actor and as a person, too. Perhaps before the class, I'll take the time to do some pre-meditation to concentrate on my breathing, and not just rely on the ones after class.

"Sideways Stories from Wayside School" opens tomorrow morning with a show for an elementary school. Jazzed does not begin to describe my excitement for that show. We've been doing great during all the runs, so there's no doubt we'll rock the house on all the shows.

Time to study for French!
