(wonky retroactive posting still happening, as i find hand-written entries and things saved on my computer and other lost entries)

happy christmas, everyone. i’ve survived the tour, done my time, completed that particular rite of passage. i have strong biceps, callused hands, and a much better knowledge of technical theatre. i’ve eaten out so many times that i never ever want to see another road-side diner again, and i’m very good at navigating thru strange cities using fancifully-illustrated maps. i’m tougher, mentally and physically, than i was four months ago, and i’ve gained a stronger sense of what i want out of life: that is, understanding the difference between things that actually make me happy, and things that i think should make me happy (but don’t, necessarily).
