Fatigued Friday

It has been a busy week! I’m tired and running slow this morning.

The show last night was good. The audience was a little quiet (dead, is what we would call it from stage) and I have to admit that I was not much different. There weren’t a lot of places to react in Act I, though. I think most of us kept watching wondering when we were going to get hints to the conflict. Turns out that the author doesn’t really show you the conflict until Act II, and sort of comes out of nowhere. I don’t think it helped that Act II came after Intermission. The whole crowd sort of spent the time ‘thinking’ instead of ‘discussing.’

I don’t know. It was weird. A good play, but one that has some unusual aspects.

As for the other part of the evening, that had some unusual aspects too. The most surprising being the little phrase Mr. Hockey whispered to me as the lights went down for the beginning of Act I. I just thought that after being told this week that I was over-reaching in my assessment of our relationship and that he was struggling with trusting “any and all things feminine” that he wouldn’t have been the one to offer that sentiment last night.

So, I’m chalking it up to him wanting to reassure me, and also taking him at his word. That he means what he says to me and I’ll just leave it at that.

Big meeting at work this afternoon. Much stress expected from the other people. I don’t want to be involved in the whole thing but I’ll end up trying to ask questions to bring clarity. It’s what I do. We won’t get through the whole list of issues and most of the ones we will get through will be answered with: “IT doesn’t have the resources to do that right now, we’ll put it on the list.”

Race home to make/eat dinner with the boys (what we’re going to eat, I have no idea) then a private rehearsal/coaching with the music director tonight. That can’t can’t CAN’T last long because I’m just wiped out.

OK. Got to get dressed and on my way. Maybe some coffee would be good…
