This isn't really where I thought I'd be

Do you ever feel that life just hasn't turned out the way you imagined?

I know that not everything works out the way that we hope it will when we're younger. But, my life is just so far from where I thought it would be by now. It's not that I don't have alot to be thankful for. I'm healthy. I have a roof over my head and food in the fridge. Sole-control over the remote (except when my brother's home). No real responsibility (except for my brother). I have a great dog, an easy job (that I really don't care for), and a few friends. I'd just like more.

Every year, for some unknown reason, I decide to re-evaluate my life.  Gotta stop doing that.

It's not that my life is terrible. Just sometimes it's nice to have someone to come home to.  Still looking for Mr. Right.

Well, now that I've had my "pity me" moment I feel a little better.

On the plus side of things, I begin auditioning this week for the play that I'm directing. I'm really excited. I've never directed anything before, so it's going to be ALOT of fun. We have a great group of actors who are going to be auditioning. All of them are very committed and most have alot of experience. I've been finalizing all of the pre-production stuff this week, so I'm almost ready. About the only thing left to do is give my set design to the set construction crew. I can't wait!

I also signed up with the local Fire Department to be put on the list as a Volunteer Fire Fighter. Something about playing with large hoses really appeals to me right now!

If you didn't evaluate yourself every once in a while something's wrong. Even though it sounds like you want more in your life, it seems like you're going for it with the play and the big hoses. Men will follow when the time is right.

I know. Self evaluation is good sometimes. I guess we all feel this way sometimes. Like life isn't going the way we expected that it would. Most times, as long as I'm still alive and breathing, I'm okay with everything. And, for now, I'll be content with my own little version of fame. It's not much. But it's something.

I've enjoyed your site, by the way. You always hear stories about how ruthless the business is, but you never really know until you hear it from someone in the trenches.
