Everyone wants to tell me 25 things about themselves

So everyone and their dog has a facebook account now, and they all are using it to tell me 25 factoids about themselves and seem to want me to tell them 25 back, but I don't really know what I'd say. I think people who know me, know me. And those who don't probably won't figure me out from a little list of facts. That said, I have a text edit page open in which I'm trying to come up with things. I'm a loser sometimes.

I'm also a winner sometimes! I win at creativity and funny! Yay! Today is Saturday, so of course this morning Meridian 13 News met to finalize all our rewrites and write our transitions. Our first podcast will be recorded this Thursday night, edited this Friday, and posted on iTunes this Saturday!! Woohoo! I'm not sure if the blog has been updated yet, but we are working on the whole self promotion thing. We're giving all the characters facebook pages and making a fan page for M13N itself. We also discussed throwing a launch party for the first podcast. We're gettin' fancy up in hurr! I'll be sure to keep you updated about all of this, and I hope that you all will attend the launch party when it happens (probably next Sunday since two of our 5 contributors cannot attend anything next Saturday night).

I'm keeping up with my homework nicely, and that makes me feel awesome. I always get everything done, but it's nice to pace it out instead of doing things the night before. I only have one thing left to write for next week and then I have to read a play. Easy breezy. I'll be able to get some extra writing in, which rocks my socks off. I should practice piano too. I can finally tell that I AM actually getting better at it. It feels so nice to be able to sit down and play a song all the way through in the time it's supposed to take. Thank god for all those classical largos and adagios. :-)

I'm feeling much better today than I was whenever I last posted. Yesterday, I guess. I still don't like all that business, but I'm creating things today and not stuck on all that.

Speaking of creating! I spoke with Connor quite a bit earlier today about New Helvetia. Looks like they're going to do Baker's Wife earlier in the year than this summer. Maybe in April. And then do Hedwig and THEN Grass Harp. So three shows instead of just two. Hopefully that works out, as I'm really banking on Grass Harp happening. We also discussed maybe doing Mack and Mabel instead of Grass Harp this season and saving it for another year. I'd go to Mack and Mabel with them though. I'd love that, but I am really hoping for Grass Harp. We ALSO discussed having me and his fave music director just get together during the day while one show is up and churning out a full length show in a month and putting it on. Not sure if that's even possible, but I am so up for the challenge. I think that sounds absolutely amazing and well worth trying. I want my work up and in front of audiences. I want to see reactions so I know what to do. Sondheim said that the most important thing is to write and have it performed and just keep doing that. I believe him.

Right, I'm gonna get back to reading so I can have tomorrow for my song.
