I have an audition tonight that has led to an odd bit of wardrobe for today. The silhoutte is perfect for the era, but I'm not sure the colors work for any era. But fuck it. This will be my first audition at a space I've worked in several times as a stage manager, which is a little odd, but at least I have the benefit of knowing the space and feeling comfortable there.

I feel really weird, but less weird than I did yesterday. Remain moderately stressed about any number of situations; everyday at work there's a bit of holding my breath lately, but so far so good.

The Swedish Social ministry has set up a website to show how retouched a magazine cover really is. Having formerly worked as a personal assistant for a professional retoucher, I got to say, none of what is seen here is out of the ordinary, and is actually relatively minor compared to some of the work I've seen done on celebrity photos.

The only reason they are better looking than you is time, money and technology. Period.
