Long time, no write. My bad. I was all caught up.
Let me give you the long and short of it.
I've found that dating and auditions have a lot in common. Basically, you put in a lot of effort and you get a lot of rejection. That wonderful guy I was talking about a few months ago? Well...Frog! Just "ribbit!" We dated for three months, he didn't want to commit, and then he decided to stop talking to me...completely. Three weeks later he tried to come back, apologize, and pick back up. Um, clearly not. I don't go for all that foolishness.
Next, I started talking to this wonderful man who I went to college with. He is literally like...fantastic and we were always laughing and having a great time together. He is an incredibly talented musician and we had a lot in common and most importantly, he has a total heart for God. For our first date, he took me on a trip to Disney World...yes. You read that correctly. We were gone for a week. It was amazing. I was smitten. He lives a few states away so I was doing some traveling back and forth and soon after our trip, the two of us worked together putting on my first solo concert. He was once again incredible. Total gentleman. Like, everything. Okay...long story short, he was out of town last week with his family and it has now been six days since he has called me. He's all about moving slowly and I respect that, but like, an email and a few tweets does not a courtship make. So...based on my past experiences, I'm gonna just count this one as a goner....ugh.
Additionally, I've been auditioning like crazy and not booking like crazy. Time is running out...well, if not time, my funds, and I am going to have to start thinking about some other options soon. All is not lost though. I have had some INCREDIBLE career experiences in the past few months, like total blessings, I just haven't booked anything that is more long-term and/or paying into my benefits. Make sense? So...we'll see what happens. Hopefully something will come through and I'll have some fun news on that front.
Hmmm...I had a dream that I was dating one of my gay besties last night...that was weird. lol.
...and...I think that's basically it. Oh wait! I signed my lease June 1st so now I am like a real bill-paying New Yorker.
So in summary, you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince and much like Miss Tiana...I'm going through it, but hopefully, in both my career and my love life, "I'm almost there!" Toodles!
