What To Do


Mood: Tired
Song: Come Away With Me - Norah Jones
Units of Caffeine: 4

A few weeks ago, a friend of mine approached me with a really great opportunity to assistant direct a new project at a professional theatre this spring. I told him that I would do it and was very excited about it at the time. Well, I'm still excited at the thought of having a pro credit on my resume; but, truth be told, the thought of doing theatre - any theatre right now just tires the hell out of me. I will soon be running lights for a production of Romeo & Juliet, and the thought of just doing that tires me. I really don't know what's wrong with me - I mean, I should be absolutely thrilled to death and more than willing to jump on the theatre bandwagon, (especially A.D.ing a pro gig); but I'm not. Right now, it would not be too late to pull out of the project; and I am considering it... but I just don't know. I feel like I would be shooting myself in the foot if I don't do it; but I know that if I do it, my heart just won't be in it; and I'm afraid it will show in the final product.

I spoke with K about this this afternoon, but I guess what I also have is this totally unreal thought that this uninspired feeling; this feeling of complete exhaustion over something for which I have such a passion will never end.

You just finished a masters degree! And then were robbed. Which was immediately followed by the hectic holiday season. Of course you're tired! This will pass. I think it's perfectly natural to hit pockets of exhaustion every once in awhile. Especially after going through a major event.
