So okay, moving on. Got a haircut today, like it lots so far. Have to see it tomorrow after I wash it, although if I just let it dry on its own it's pretty much doomed no matter what the cut. Stopped by to visit my darlin' friend and her darlin' baby, who's just very very cute.
And today, my darlin' husband mailed a headshot for me.
Now, this isn't an ordinary headshot submission. This is one of those "No shot in hell, but will hate myself forever if I don't at least send it and TRY and get this role, although if by some miracle I'm actually called in it'll be an even bigger disaster, 'cause this is just way over my head" roles.
But those don't come along that often. I don't even know if this role's open. But still. Can't win if you don't show up to the game, right? 
My new improv class starts tomorrow, hooray!
I really have enjoyed these classes (IFA at Second City) - great group of people in our class, great instructors, etc. We've had several weeks off since the last class ended, antisocial as I am, I miss those guys and I'm really looking forward to seeing them again. 
Other than that, not a lot going on, acting-wise. Taking a free "try me out" kind of class on Thursday from a guy I met at ActorFest, self-submitting a lot, gonna get another mailing ready, etc. Trying to re-commit myself to my current ongoing acting class, with some scheduling conflicts and my surgery I've been slacking off there for a while - gotta stop that. Gotta find a couple good scenes to work on, in-class and out, etc. Have a bunch of plays to read - or finish reading. I feel like I really have to step up all this acting stuff, like I've been too lazy, I need to network, etc - so what I MOST need to do is keep in mind someone fabulous's recent post to a message board I love, wherein he said something along the lines of "you can't know the impact you're having." Okay, so that's a direct quote, italics and all. But it's smart. And it's helpful.
