Survived the week! What a accomplishment. The house is nice and quiet right now. No kid, no TGF. Just me and the animals. Ah....
Went to work in the morning even though I wasn't 100% Felt it as I was walking to the train station. But I made it in and I played nice. It was tough because I was assigned to a new project and had to act like I was fully engaged even though I know I am walking in there Monday morning and resigning. I did hear back from my old bosses and will have paperwork this weekend. It's confirmed. I think I am happy. You know I had reservations going into this job and I really did it because of the money. You notice I haven't had to bitch about money these last couple of months? That alone made it worth it. It put my street value back where it needed to be. It also showed them what I was worth. I know that's a fucked up way to have to do things, but it needed to be done.
Left the office around 3:30 and headed home. The minute I got home I headed out for the show. What a show it was! A HUGE stage and backstage area, real dressing rooms, real theater equipment. Oh my god if we could perform in a venue like this every week I would be in heaven. Dealt with some actor tantrums followed by my spotlight operator melting down and walking out 15 minutes before the show started. Typical theater shit. No other major drama but was stressful. But it was the stress I would expect and I was able to handle it without melting down myself. Made it through the show and was home around midnight.
The only real thing of interest was our cast advisor's husband came up to me early in the night and told me his wife had told him what had happened at the last show with me and the directors. His comment was that it was wrong, my director was out of control, and I shouldn't listen to her. I thanked him and told him that meant a lot and that in actuality I was still seeing TGF. He responded with "GOOD I hoped that's what you were going to say because it's nobody's fucking business who you are seeing." Now that TGF and I have been going out for 5 weeks, people are starting to realize that we are not hurting each other in any way we don't want and that dammit, we are a couple. His comments last night made me feel good. I know he will tell his wife and that she will approve.
Despite what I might think, there are people who want to see me happy and people who are willing to over look their own feelings for me to have that happiness. All you people? Love you to death.
Today I am going to do some cleaning and relaxing as we have another show tonight and I won't get home until late from this one. Then I am going to write a resignation letter...
