I'm not ill, I'm just not well...

That about sums it up, heh ^_^; But leaving you with just that would be very bad of me.

And Kei, I'd never leave permanently without saying goodbye first. I promise you'll know if I've decided to quit the net.

The Wind in the Willows is moving along quite quickly, but every performance amounts to something different. This morning started off terribly because everyone was either depressed or ill (and myself being rather considerably ill and fairly depressed didn't exactly help, but I have reservations about feeling sorry for myself when everyone else is doing exactly the same thing and it wasn't aided by the fact that I had no breakfast, either), but this afternoon's was just... odd. Certainly eventful in terms of things happening to me, anyway.

It started off okay. I'd been lying down underneath the tables in the dressing room playing with the fluffy baubles hanging from someone's scarf when I went onstage first, to frighten a couple of hedgehogs.

The second time, all of the Wild Wooders run on, scaring off Albert and stealing a wheel from a caravan. Two of us decided to run up the rather narrow stairs at the same time, causing both of us to almost come crashing into about seven audience members. Luckily, we avoided that catastrophe.

But... when we terrorized Mole, there's a point where I'm supposed to grab his hat off him and play 'keep-away' with him and the rest of the nasty ones (this casts's mole is about six feet tall, by the way). As I went to grab it, I missed the hat, and as I landed the other side my shoe (with me still being firmly attached to it) decided to slide out from underneath me. The scene's supposed to move quickly, and Mole had to pretty much give me his hat himself because I hadn't managed to ^_^; Ah well

The next time I was on stage was during the court scene. It's probably my favourite of the lot due to its writing and the way everyone's characters interact with each other. But I have to get up and chase Toad about a bit before catching him and shoving him in his chair along with two others.

I heroically leapt over my chair, tangled with the police officer (which I was supposed to to) and then grabbed Toad by the arm and helped drag him to his chair. While Toad was hopping backwards, though, he managed to headbutt me in the jaw and caused me to slip over yet again once he'd sat down.

I have about six splinters in my hand from that rope I hold off-stage, and that's added to the inconvenience of having slit my finger on a pair of scissors yesterday while trying to make the best of a ripped thumbnail (again, mine).

In the final scene, we thought it'd be funny for Weasel Norman's character to spit water onto me, as I'm lying on the floor and he has a drink over me. I was okay with it, heh.

I hadn't quite anticipated how much water there was going to be, though.

After swimming my way back upstage we came to the fight scene, whereupon I realised that there was still a hefty amount of water in the tankards on the table, which I get thrown onto by Badger (who, incidentally, has one of the best voices ever. Incredibly sexy).

I got very wet. But thankfully the bruises on my leg haven't been hit again- every run we did last week I hit it in exactly the same place and it was really getting painful, but so far this week I've missed hitting it. Touch wood, haha.

On top of that I have a wretched cold that burns my nose and dampens my hearing/voice/overall enegry levels. This morning I was sure I was going to throw up, but after the run I felt much better and more energetic.

But it's worst when I'm lying down, which makes sleep irritatingly awkward. Roll on warmer climates...

Intensive Acting is not good for you if you're ill ^_^;

But text messages from Teh Ben and letters from Aleia are very good for lifting your spirits ^___________^ I shall reply, and with all the swiftness I can manage. *coughs*So with any luck you'll get something before March...*coughs*

Take care ^_^
