bardic_ladyA decidedly mercurial evening...
Tabling for National Coming Out Day was a great deal of fun. Except for the part where the UPS Republican Club came up and joked/threatened to put up a poster advertising the coming of their Republican senatorial candidate over my Gay of the Day Calendar. Not cool, Republicans, not cool...
Ate dinner in my room while catching up on email, then schlepped over to swing. Almost no leads. Like three leads for eight or nine follows. I started learning to lead, which is so far really uncomfortable for me and I'd rather follow.
Came home early and realized that there was no way I was gonna get anything done, so went to the Queer Dance. Not so much of the fun, though Anna and I definitely did Lindy to a rap song, which was really fun. Too loud, too many people too close together...
Came back, watched Will and Heather play several rounds of DDR and then we went over to Kilworth, which was a BLAST. First of all, it's always thrilling to listen to Will play the organ. Second, it's even more fun when there's someone to talk to between songs without distracting Will too much. Next, I got to play the piano, which I don't get to do nearly enough. Will and I duetted (dueted?) Heart and Soul which was just too much fun. Will sang and Heather and I sat and sighed and then...*sighsquee* I got to recite! Henry V, Act IV Prologue, my favourite monologue of all time. I need to declaim more often, it makes me so happy...
Came home to an email about a voice and speech workshop. If it weren't so damned expensive, I would go in a heartbeat. I'd kill to get some decent voice training again and the instructors are using the same techniques that I've worked with before. If a Suzuki workshop ever comes through, I will go. No matter what it costs.
So I'm at least moderately happy right now. I have a Lit midterm in the morning. The only thing I'm really concerned about, though, is whether or not I can stay awake through it.
First Silver Screen rehearsal tomorrow. Aie.
