It's Saturday. I usually hate Saturday's. But today...today has been wonderful so far.
Sleeping until 9am, which on a Saturday when I have usually been at work for at least an hour already, was amazing.
Waking up to a clean, well...tidy, house was amazing.
Waking up to Jason already being awake was amazing.
We've just been lying in bed this morning. I made coffee. He's been watching Sports Center and I've been blog stalking. There has been lots of kisses and lots of laughter this morning.
Come Monday- this fantasy land I've lived in since Wednesday will all go away, but I am going to enjoy it while it lasts.
Jason is staying home today and we're going to watch the Iron Bowl, he's heading to Kroger to get beer and stuff to make wings and he's going to cook.
Since Nov. 2nd- we've been doing really well. Now, if only he could get hired somewhere. I know that would be a serious load of stress off him. He is so smart and talented and really good at what he does, I wish the economy didn't suck so bad right now so some seriously awesome company could hire him. He's worked so hard- harder than anyone can ever know- and now all he wants is a job. The target hire date for that interview he went on is the 2nd of December. We haven't heard anything yet.
I just want him happy. So, for today, he and I are not going to talk about work or school or even theatre. We're just going to lay in bed, or on the couch, and watch some football.
What a perfect Saturday.
EDIT: Jason came home with like a pound of chicken to make wings, tons of sauce, tons of celery, tons of Ranch, AND the HEINEKIN KEG...I love this man.

"All we ever do is talk about bugs..."
I am so glad that this weekend is over.
It was the busiest and most stressful yet, but a blast.
But its over. And I just have to get through Monday and Wednesday and then I'm off work until next Monday. I can do it.
I am far too tired to really post but here's a list of good things that happened this weekend:
-found out that Jason got a job interview...it's tomorrow. And we're both really nervous. If you pray (or whatever you call it) then please think about him around 2pm tomorrow.
-got all of his Christmas shopping done! All of it. And it's everything I wanted to get him. So excited.
-the entire house is now decorated for the holidays. I am going to be so busy with "The Book of Liz" (which is going AWESOME- by the way) that I'm getting everything I can done now.
-made a 70.00 tip- which made my total day earnings to almost 200.00
-saw 2 people I really love and care about tell everyone they care about that they're in it for the long haul. Granted, it was FREEZING, but it was absolutely beautiful and I cried. I'll admit it. And the venue for the reception was kick ass.
-saw a very ambitious show in town close and while there were things I really just disagreed with from an artistic perspective, it was a wonderful effort and it had crazy energy. I was impressed.
-ate some seriously awesome food (Po Boy and Mullins in one weekend...ugh, so amazing)
-and finally...I got to see my handsome man in a suit for practically an entire day. I love him in a suit. What a hottie.
That was my weekend. Busy, stressful, but wonderful.
OH...and birthday shout-out to my Momma, Lori Musto. Happy Birthday Ma. Thanks for everything and I love you. (Because I know you read this....)

SENIORS!!!
They say (who ever they are) that you can't go back to high school. You can never go home again. Blah, Blah, Blah.
Personally, I never want to go back to high school. It was awful. I was fat- I mean, really fat, fatter than I am now. I had tragic Sun-In hair and a fake tan. I drank waaayyy to much, and didn't have the most modest of behavior. And we were mean. Not my finest of moments.
But recently, I had the chance to "go back to high school"...so to say.
Two years ago, June 10th, 2006- to be exact. I moved to Huntsville. Left Fort Lauderdale behind and moved here, where I knew nobody, had no friends, and was able to start over. Not but a few days later, I saw that a local theatre in town was holding auditions for my all time favorite show- "The Rocky Horror Show".
Walking in, I was intimidated. Tons of people who already knew each other and so talented, I almost left. I'm glad I didn't.
Fast forward, I get cast and meet the most amazing people because of it. I made best friends, really learned alot about myself and opened myself up again. The 2006 "Rocky" was something I had never experienced before. We all instantly bonded.
Two years later, we're still friends. And we begin hearing the rumblings about them doing it again and having auditions this past Summer. I talked to alot of the Original cast to see if any of them were auditioning, a few said yes and some said that they just wanted to remember it the way it was.
I, along with 5 other Original people, were cast in the 2008 production that just closed. And I have mixed emotions about the entire experience. It nearly killed me physically. I'm still not sure I left with as many friends as I entered with. I saw alot of true colors about people I never wanted to see but did. And it all but destroyed my soon to be marriage. This show was not an ok time for Jason and I. And I was not the person that I really wanted to be during it. I'm not sure for what reason or why but I wasn't and I am still really embarrassed about it.
Now I did prove alot to myself- I can sing with the right Music director. And I can dance. Really well. And I got to know some people who I really didn't know before and I met someone who could possibly be a best friend. I saw alot- acting and singing wise- from people I knew really well that beyond impressed me and made me proud to call them a friend. And I got an awesome backstage crew for "Book of Liz" out of it.
So, was there a point to this post? Not sure yet. For me, "Rocky" is dead and buried for a while, at least. I'm sure- barring a very specific person directing- that I will never audition for this show again.
"Rocky" got me where I am now 2 years ago and now, its over. And I'm not sure how I feel about that. Some things are maybe just better left to memory.
