Trying to Work

Last night at UCB was blast, Gilli and her team had a great show and I think it is the start to what will be a successful Harold Team. The Harold is a style of long form improv and if you are put onto one of these teams, it is your real indoctrination into the theater. After the show we went and hung out at a bar called Birds, which is right next to the theater and where people typically go after shows.

Like I said before, it is really nice to finally feel like I'm part of this community. I'm not great at getting out there and meeting new people, but after three years I've managed to soak my way in. It's cool being able to go and talk to a lot of different really funny people, especially now because I know enough of them well enough to not feel like I constantly have to put on a show. Being a good friend is enough.

After staying out last night, I slept in pretty late again. I first woke up at 8:30, then 10:30, at which point I got up for a while and ate and read the news and then sort of lounged around until about one. I'm disappointed police are breaking down the Occupy camps, although they are probably doing them a favor by providing them with more press coverage.

I had a big interview today at a management company called The Hoffland Company, they represent Julia Louise Dryfus and Kenneth Braugnah, Kevin Kline and some others. I had a really great time, I felt totally relaxed and in the zone, the woman interviewing me seemed more nervous than I did! I'm going to write a kick ass follow up tonight and send it off early tomorrow, so it looks like I'm up early.

I really can't wait to be working again. Even though it seems like it sucks while you are doing it, it gives you purpose, keeps you busy and makes you appreciate your free time so much more. I have constantly been thinking about how much money I could be saving if I had kept my job at docstoc, ugh, regret feelings sinking in! Let's talk about something else...

Also, Hanna and I have been texting and have a date in the works, it was supposed to happen this afternoon, but I ended up having this interview, which makes me sound cool, so I'm alright with it. Hm, guess I don't have a whole lot to say today, this is one of my shorter posts and it is the only post I have written today, probably because there isn't too much new to say and I delved into a lot of stuff yesterday.

A friend of mine just wrote openly about his depression on facebook and it was cool to see how many people openly supported him. He wrote about having suicidal thoughts and not wanting to go out of the house for days and days. Maybe someday I will openly talk about what's happened to me, but probably not, I'm too worried about getting a job, I don't even let people know that I worked at docstoc, let alone have a mental illness. Maybe if I wrote a really good book about it, but that is harder than it sounds! Delving into traumatic experience is no fun, especially for long periods of time like that.

Yeah, that's it, good day so far, feel good. Tomorrow is Wednesday, which means I have my psychiatry appointment. I'm looking forward to it. Definitely feeling better this week. It will be interesting to see if she has anything specific to say about my blog, as it's gone pretty in depth, even though we've already talked about most of the stuff. The rest of the day I'll be here with nothing to do. Maybe I will do push ups and sit ups and go on a run. That'd be good. Maybe I'll read! I've barely done any reading since I started writing this thing. Maybe I'll write something else other than this blog. Who knows? The possibilities are endless.
