What a month it has been! I started the month with as much drama as I am leaving it. Last weekend was Oscar weekend. It was also my second Essentials of Acting for TV and Movies class and it was also the weekend I FAINTED! for the first time!
Crazy!
Class was good. Much less stressful than I expected from the first class. I knew my lines and I think I delivered them fairly well considering I am brand new at this. I brought the VHS tape home and watched my performance.. not sure if I loved it.. I do have a lot to learn!
Saturday evening was even more dramatic.. I was at Brett's place with Janna and Lauren. I was prepping veggies for the Oscars party and relaxing in the house while Lauren and Janna worked on some shots for Janna's film class. I got a call to come out and help them with a couple of shots and so I was out there standing and suddenly I felt my face quiver and vibrate... I said "I feel like I am going to faint" and was the last thing I remembered. I was out cold.. I started dreaming immediately.. it was so vivid and colorful and fast paced and energetic of a dream. It was so relaxing.. so when I started to hear faint distant voices of Lauren calling my name and Janna asking if they need to call 911, I was startled and came to.. I remember thinking.. what the hell is going on .. what is the big deal.. I was sleeping here!!! And then I looked down and saw my muddy hands and realized I was outside on the ground at 9:30pm.. that is when I realized something was wrong and I got scared! I asked them to help me up right away and when I stood up, the ground under me was soaked! I was drenched with perspiration. I was taken inside right away and sat down, had some water etc..
I saw my doctor and he wasn't concerned. Neither was my chiropractor.. but neither seemed to know any reason why I went into REM immediately. Lauren and Janna saw my eyes going back and forth like they do in REM as well. No one seems to think that is normal to do when you faint but apparently it isn't a huge deal.
So I went ahead and booked an appointment with my sleep doctor to see if at the very least, he can give me some info on REM and why it might have happened or if he is concerned.
So Saturday was dramatic in many ways... then Sunday was oscars.. once again drama everywhere.. It was a great party Janna threw at Brett's new condo. I was still a bit out of it but overall it was ok.
I went to work Monday after my appointments and it felt like a write off. Tuesday was a busy day and Monday night I had Drama dreams.. I dreamed that John Travolta and Robin Williams quit acting and became consultants in Oil & Gas. Oi!
I have also become quite addicted to the Sweeney Todd soundtrack and look forward to seeing the movie again.
I also joined EHarmony this month.. So far no solid luck but I am going to be patient.
I go speed dating with Alice next Tuesday .. 25 dates.com so we will see how that goes.
Next Wednesday I get my tattoo! I will post pics when that is done. I am excited!
I am beat though.. time for some sleep!
