Smitten

It's a word that I've used often lately. "Smitten". Now it's been used back at me. An ex-girlfriend, Shannon, has decided to alert me to the fact that I guess the fact that I'm more than a little smitten with "Heidi" is fairly obvious. Ah, well. No use hiding it from anyone, anyway...not that I was trying.

I only mention it because, officially, "Heidi" is part of my Turkeyville experience. The fact that I might have taken something pretty serious out of that experience is surprising...to say the least. But there she is. And I'm planning weekend trips taking her away for her birthday and talking to her every night and missing her like crazy and...well, the usual stuff.

Aside from "Heidi" becoming a bigger and bigger part of my life, I'm busy trying to immerse myself back into being in shows. As I've mentioned, I'm now fully in rehearsals for "Escanaba In Love" at Circle Theatre and it's going pretty well. After that, I'm doing "Six Degrees Of Seperation", which should be kinda fun. Yesterday I got word that the audition for LiveWire Theater's spring show, called "Wonder Of The World", decided to go in any casting direction. That's a euphemism I never really understood, to be honest. If I wasn't good enough, I think I'd rather have somebody just say so...nicely. Anyway, it's just further proof of something I think I wrote about a few weeks ago when I actually auditioned for this show...I have absolutely no "radar" worth any good at all when it comes to things like figuring out how an audition or a callback went. In all honesty, I thought I had nailed this audition. Not sure what happened but there ya go...I'm back to scouring the usual websites for something else to do once 2009 rolls around.

Luckily, I'm mostly booked for the rest of 2008, which is nice. And in less than 2 weeks I get to be with "Heidi" for a few days to celebrate her birthday. And that is something I can really look forward to.

smitten: past participle of smite. Struck with great force; disastrously or deeply affected; afflicted.
Sounds like true love to me!
