| Being fake Jewish is the best!
I get to leave work today at 2pm and not return until Monday. It’s the Sukkot holiday and because I am a Gentile, it’s just a really long weekend for me. Best part? Next week, it’s the same story! Gosh, how do people work real 40 hour-a-week jobs? I don’t think I could ever handle something so damn ludicrous. Of course, I won’t exactly be taking it easy during my time off. The Theatre Company’s next show goes up three weeks from tomorrow, so we have lots more rehearsing and business to take care of. At this moment, the whole process seems very daunting, but we do our best work when we are working with a deadline, so I’m sure it will all work out ok. On top of this, I’m moving out of my apartment on December 1st! Paul and I are finally moving in together. It’s been a long time coming, but we are MORE than ready now. Unfortunately, there has been a lot of frustration and anger between everybody about the move. It’s such a huge change in my life and the last thing I want is for everyone to hate each other. But it seems that in moments of total stress, the worst in everyone comes out. I’m trying my best to rise above it all, but it’s hard. How do I balance my love and support for Paul with my love and support for my friends? It would be much easier if both sides would get along with each other, but that is very far from reality at this time. I’m just going to do the best I can to weather the storm and hope that we are all (myself included) able to look outside our otherwise selfish natures. Other than that, everything is going pretty well. I tend to be happiest when I’m busy, so needless to say I’m in very good spirits. I had a wonderful talk with my friend Rita last week and it felt good to catch up with someone not connected to the play, the move, or my job. It’s so rare that I’m able to have these kind of conversations, so when it does happen, it’s a very welcome change of pace. Rita is currently packing up her life and preparing to move to DC. Her husband got a job with the Secret Service! How HOTTTT is that?? Best part (cuz I’m a selfish monkey) is that Rita will only be about 2 and a half to 3 hours away from NYC. Currently she’s like 5 hours away. I’m hoping we can see eachother’s pubes a lot more often. Er…oops. You understand. We are just about a month away from the election for president! I’m pretty sure idiot fuck is going to win again, but it’s going to be a night to remember! I’ve decided that I’m going to throw a party at Paul’s apartment so that we can all hug eachother when Kerry blows it. I’m thinking we should have pigs in a blanket. Considering that Kerry is going to lose it for us Democrats, at least we can have good tasting hoerdourves in the process. Ok…gotta jet! Have a great weekend all! |
