The Whining Began on Friday, April 22, 2005.

Happy Belated Blog-iversary to me.

What’s new?

Hmm.

I haven’t had a cigarette since August, and I’ve gained 20 lbs. I am in therapy. I take anti-depressants. I joined a church choir. And although I haven’t had a drink in three days, the first such break since November; I am still a raging alcoholic. Hate my job, and my job still hates me.

I’m having a better time with my partner. I am more likely to stand up for myself toward him without being a jerk myself.

I was nominated for two Best Director of a Musical Awards, and I won one of them. I passed the Shakespeare Class at the Studio Conservatory, but still need to take the Improvisation Class before continuing to Shakespeare II. I had a great time as Mr. Walker in The Who’s Tommy, and an even better time as Frankie in Forever Plaid. I got to sing at the WATCH Awards.

And then there are the drunk episodes. Oy. The things I said. . .

I’m going to do some kind of compilation about being a drunk, and I’m going to consolidated it into one ugly story. . . hopefully before I have another drink! Maybe it will make a difference.

But first – the work I didn’t do has to get caught up, likity split, so I can do the work I’m supposed to do. And I can’t play today . . . damn.

Hi-Ho, Hi-Ho, It’s off to work I go.
