Wow, today was long and exhausting. From megabus to home quick to drop off my stuff to work right away to rehearsal to home to running to home. Whew. In Chicago and up and awake from five pm until about eleven thirty. I'm pooped BUT there are things going on this weekend:
*I'm in a show!!! ARE YOU THERE GOD? IT'S ME, SATAN. Gorilla Tango Theatre, Friday and Saturday 10pm, $12, be there!!! This weekend and next and that's IT!
I've got improv olympic class which is a miracle. Money stuff, you know. I'm so happy to be in that class and absolutely pumped too!
I get to rearrange my schedule tomorrow with the museum a little bit to accomodate holiday spending time with Fotis. Hooray!
I'm also a little proud of myself for getting my ass outside and running tonight. This may very well be the last nice week of the season in Chicago (although you never know because as we were leaving it was twenties and now it's fifties and beautiful) but I went running tonight because compared to MN, Chicago is downright tropical right now. I was far overdressed getting off the bus this morning and it was kind of a nice feeling that magically my fall was back.
That visit to Minneapolis was exactly what I needed to recharge the motor for Chicago, I think. I'm re-motivated to do some cleaning, work extra hard and make some money, get rid of some junk, decorate for the holiday a little bit (or at least for the fall, coziness in the colder months is key to keep sanity for moi), and write more nanowrimo. Oh yay!
I realized this weekend what home means or feels like, rather. That sounds so silly, but honestly I've never felt so much like I belong someplace like that. Minneapolis is such a neat city, it's very clean, there's no anxiety driving there, and the people can't be beat. I sure do miss those people. Ah, well, I plan my return around new years. See you then, Minnesota!
Thanks for reading!!!
