I had quite the day today, I spent most of the day at my first rehearsal for the AALA Roundup show. It wasn't really a rehearsal per say, it was more like a getting to know you shing dig. There were lots of cute boys but oddly enough I wasn't as involved in husband hunting as I usually am. One very amazing, though long, activity we did was sharing with everyone an object that had a lot of emotional significance to us. I brought the necklace I got when I graduate from rehab, and went on to explain why. Most importantly I shared that I had realized that day that it was the first time in a long time that I finished something that I started. That was a very new thing for me, because I am known to start a lot of projects and never finish them. I was very grateful to everything that I learned in rehab, which has shaped me into becoming the man I am today. The one thing I am obsessing about in my head is on what kind of role did I get. My ego would like the lead, after all I went to boarding school and a conservatory for musical theater; I was in an off off Broadway show, I have performed at Carnegie Hall...how could they NOT cast me in a lead role? But then the other, more sober side of me should just be grateful to have the opportunity to participate in something that will hopefully reignite my passion in musical theater again. I will find out tomorrow what role I got, and how big my part is, and we'll see then how I react. One day at a time I guess.
Anyway my song for today always brings a smile to my face, because it reminds me of My So Called Life when Ricky goes to the dance with that girl that has a crush on him, and the way that he dances was SO the way I danced back then, so here is Haddaway with What is Love?
