i'm not ready for christmas yet, literally or metaphysically. no decorations, no christmas shopping. and other than the two marvelous advent services at st. e's, no connection to the season. not even the brilliantly cold weather has helped. time is flying by and i don't want to miss it.
stupid head. even harder today to gather my thoughts together.
so seems i did well enough to get called back for the ensemble in chess. so now i'm torn, 'cause i'd already written off being involved. and the way i'm feeling today, i'm afraid of how things will go tonight. but i have to go to callbacks, right? would be rude not to. and who knows - maybe a role in the ensemble will be better - fewer rehearsals, fewer responsibilities, more time for my other commitments. so i'll go. and then i'll decide. really, the big issue is one of the performances is scheduled for the night of film club's student film festival. and i don't think it's possible to move it - barely was able to get the auditorium that time of the year as it was.
speaking of film club, we watched seven samauri the past two days. always a bit wary on how high school student will do with the older films. but for the most part they enjoyed it and caught its influence over modern films, from archetypes to wipes. great group of students, except for the few that decided to bring food into the auditorium monday and then leave the wrappers and crumbs behind. no respect, i tell you. they didn't come back on tuesday, so no chastising. unfortunately.
ok, need to go rest some more, clear my head, figure out if i am indeed going to get a crown put on this afternoon. plus, would be nice to use some of this down time to get some stuff done around the house so its ready if the christmas spirit ever does come and find me. or i go out and find it i suppose.
