T.O.W. I Must Aim To Please
Joey: I can`t stay too long, I gotta get up early for an audition tomorrow and I gotta look good. I`m supposed to be playing a 19-year-old.
Chandler: So when you said, `Get up early,` did you mean 1986?
Joey: You guys don`t think I look 19?
Phoebe: Oh, 19! We thought you said 90!
Well, T-minus four hours until the `Joseph` audition tonight. I STILL have not heard about ITW from Grapevine, and it`s rather starting to royally piss me off. If I did not make the show (which if I did not I`m going to be a bit annoyed at this point), strap on the balls or hitch up your boobies and tell me. Keeping me waiting is not going to make me suddenly say `Oops, forgot I even auditioned for that!`
So, in that spirit, I am trying out for another show. If I get a call from ITW after tonight (assuming I get cast tonight), I will have a choice to make, I guess. Good thing is, because I`m so focused on ITW I haven`t given even half a rat`s ass worth of thought about tonight. . .well, until about 30 minutes ago when I found out I need to be able to pop out a high-belt E.
Awesome.
So I spent my lunch hour singing Defying Gravity and The Wizard & I along with Miss Menzel. And good news, I have my high E today. Some days, it likes to hide in its little cave and not come out. Dirty b*tch. But it is definitely out today! Most likely because I haven`t been over-singing a lot lately; just some general maintenance. Still, whether or not I get cast tonight? Not worrying so much. Mostly because, due to recent experience, I have learned expecting anything under these circumstances at all is just plain stupid, and I will most likely be fed bullsh*t till the moon turns blue. BUT. That`s no excuse not to cover my ass and go. After all, I am going through serious doing-a-show withdrawal; auditioning at least takes the edge off a bit. Plus, it`ll be fun to see everyone, and I`ve worked with the director, the choreographer, and the music director.
So, many good thoughts about breaking many legs!
Ciao!
