So…I have the lead in a musical.

“But Michael,” you ask, “I thought you had little to no time without this on your plate. Why would you do this to yourself?”

The answer is…Yes.

Yes I didn’t have a lot of time on my plate, but let me explain something to you:

I love theatre. I love performing. I miss the pressure. I miss the stress of having so much and so many people depending on you. I miss being able to touch people.

I passed auditioning when I saw the posters around school, but I received a message from the Director offering me a callback…I just had to do it. After receiving the ok and go-ahead from my sister, brother-in-law, and Melissa, I went callbacks today, and found out a half hour ago that I got the role.

The music is just wonderful. It feels like silk coming out of my mouth when I sing it. I just love it. I can’t wait to do a show again. It’ll be a pain time wise, but I’ll deal.

I’ve done so much reading this weekend. I’m so tired.

Melissa comes down in four days! I’m so excited to have her down here. I have so many plans…     :)

I think that’s it for this post. I’m about to write the entry on 2008…so you’ll hear from me in a couple hours! :)
