OCD Listing

Hmmm, I seem to be in a little trough of nervous anxiety? this is pretty typical for that space of time after a great relaxing vacation when I’m trying to ramp back up into productivity. It’s the hiccups and gasps of my engine, I guess, trying to catch.

I’m waiting for my bacteria to grow so that I can start some overnight cultures. Tomorrow will be much more busy, since I’ll be analyzing all these strains I stored up right before Hawaii. But today is too quiet by comparison to tomorrow’s projected craziness. Oh well, like many professions, microbiology is a lot of hurry up and wait.

This evening is pretty jam-packed. I’ve got swim lessons followed by stage makeup lessons followed hopefully by food followed by club intermediate practice. Then Wednesday will be lab crazy during the day, followed by . . . oh crap, I just realized we’re having a dress rehearsal Wednesday BEFORE we have our show practice to drill the choreography. . . Oh well!

Thursday night we dance for Intercultural Night, and the flyer claims last year there were nearly 1,000 people in attendance? It’s going to be on the same stage as our Spring Bellydance Show, so it’s a great opportunity.

Friday is Lady’s Night! We’re going to go see an art show, because one of the ladies is actually in one of the paintings.

Saturday is a St. Patrick’s Day Redux, since many of us missed St. Patrick’s day because we were in Hawaii. There could also be a dance practice in there too.

Sunday is show dance practice for sure, and then we’re back to Monday again.

Man, I feel better having listed the whole mess out. Every night is a happening night, unlike most of the break. I’m nervous about getting back into the rhythm of it, but tired of being out of it too.

Circling back to today: I’m excited because we can see our costumes tonight! Days like these, I feel like a theatre major masquerading as a biology student. But I know I love both, and I’m glad not to only be doing one or the other.
