I've been busy, rehearsing up to six hours a night, five days a week, and finally our opening night is upon us.

The play is really pretty amazing, and I've been having tremendous fun working on it, even if it has been a little wearing. My naps have seen a decrease in number, and sleep at night has dwindled. The school continues to send headache after splitting headache my way, but the shotty administration tends to be overshadowed by my mostly merciful professors and a sudden influx of friendships with great people (in and out of Fair Ladies) has buoyed my spirits. Add to that the fact that I have so little left to do in a fairly large portion of time, a couple games of disc golf a week, and of course Karly, who I love so much, and, though my pockets have echoed with a great hollowness, I am feeling wonderful. The beautiful (dare I say "georgious?") weather disappeared briefly, and Winter reared its ugly head once more, but now the sun appears ready to hang around for a while, and my family, my Mimi, and Cale and Sunny (and, perhaps, Joe and Brita) are coming down for the weekend. Even Karly's folks (and her Bubba), who will be in town for her harp recital (which, unfortunately—on account of I have to be a Samurai—I have to miss), are coming to see my play. I feel special and important.

And Summer's coming. I can't stop smiling.
