Got a lot of errands done today, not as many as I wanted to, and all in all it was irritating, but a whole lot of necessities have been taken care of, although I do have to go return the DermaBlend setting poweder at Lord & Taylor, because it's just talc and I can get that for $2.99 at Duane Reade and the cover-up is expensive enough.
I despise the Herald Square area. Hate it. Lots of people who think they are far more sophisticated than they are thinking they are special because they are carrying shopping bags. No one looks where they are going, polite attempts to get by someone with an "excuse me" are met with rudeness and so forth (if you're going to call me a bitch for sharing your sidewalk, do you have to do it with your mouth full?).
There's a Whole Foods near work, and I've been having spicey lime chicken over spinach leaves with vidalia onion dressing and cheddar for lunch. That makes me happy.
I got more bath bombs at LUSH. I'm not really a bath person, because it involves prep and time and all that, and our tub isn't that deep, but these are great, strangely scented and the color of blowing sand. It's like Dune in a bathtub! Without worms. Anyway.
Got my information on volunteering at the Tribeca Film Festival. The rules and regs read like they've had a lot of problems in the past (Broadway Under the Stars was so much mellower, but I'm starting to realize that people engaged or wanting to be engaged in any and all aspects of film are much more agressive as a rule), and honestly, I may have to withdraw, only because the timing in conjuction with Counsellor is pretty tight, but I'll wait and see and at least talk to my coordinator directly about it.
I did however get a surprise call from my headshot photographer. It seems someone from Acis & galatea used her and gave my name as the referrer. It's been a year! But I get $50 now. It was a very pleasant surprise.
I've also booked 11 days of early morning promo work spread out over the next 6 weeks, which is also a good thing, but means I will be very tired, not having a lot of free time and needing to conserve energy a great deal.
Everyone tells me how hard I work. I never believe them. I procrastinate and I slack and I'm only punctual when I have to be (which is to say for shows and rehearsals and quite nearly nothing else). But maybe I'm starting to believe them. There's certianly a decent work ethic and an incredible drive to get things done inside me. I just need to tighten it up, tune the machine, and realize that doing that will give me more time, not less.
Also got a Amazon gift certificate for doing a survey. Yay me. Marc Almond album here I come.
