“I just get tired of sitting around and watching TV.”
Last night at Amadeus rehearsal I was talking with Kristin, my props designer, about her work on the show as an escape from her couch.
I could easily relate to her feelings, it’s really hard to find me home alone on a Saturday night. Even when I convince myself I need to stay in, I find myself with an urge to be social on the weekend.
Maybe it’s weekdays spent in an office by day and on a stage by night. Maybe it’s the fact I easily get lonely or perhaps the fact I get restless and ADD over any attempts to spend a night in doing actual productive things. I originally wanted to write blog posts for the week Saturday night- but instead I found myself calling up Carolyn for a night out in Adams Morgan. Despite the loss of personal productivity, I found the night a success. I visited my pal JP who was working at a bar and ran into Maxie who was out celebrating Lexa‘s birthday. I woke up the next day with clothes strewn about the floor and a pain in my knee.
I also woke-up with two thoughts:
1. I don’t know if I can really do anything productive on a Saturday night- I think I have to resign myself to the fact Saturdays are for going out and being with friends.
2. Maxie is a really good wingman.
One of the things I miss about college is how often you are surrounded by your friends. In real life it is a bit harder to do. Life is hard to balance between work, theatre, blogging, friends and other things you need to do. Sometimes I feel like I need to just go through an anti-social stage and shut myself in, just so I can concentrate on getting things done. However there are some nights I just want to go out and be with my friends.
I am prone to cabin fever. It explains why I will go out in the middle of a blizzard. It explains why I enjoy blogging in the middle of a coffee shop. It explains why I am terribly lonely sometimes.
Maybe this is just another part of my Quarter Life Crisis.
Maybe I just need to get into a Bad Romance.
Do you get cabin fever? Also do you think Lady Gaga is hot? I don’t know how but that song is now stuck in my head and I’m still on the fence if I think she’s hot or not. It’s hard to tell when she often looks like this:
And when I wanted to see her without make-up I found this:
but Perez Hilton has some old photos of Lady Gaga before she became famous:
Maybe I’ll just keep continuing on finding that bad romance.
