Hello, my name is Megan...
And I am addicted to facebook. No, really. It's starting to become a problem. Also, I think if should be renamed stalkerbook, because really, who doesn't use it to look up exes, unless, you know, you don't have any. However, most of us do, and that's what we use it for. That, and facebook truly is the 2nd most reliable way to get in touch with me (#1 is my cell phone), but I am totally more apt to answer a facebook wall post or message than I am an email. That's sad, isn't it? I think so, yes.
By the way, I feel the need to warn you now that this entry is going to be abrupt and mostly transitionless. I realize that and just don't care tonight. enjoy the random!
Also, it's hot here. I think I've just wussed out, because I have definitely experienced warmer conditions in my life, but never without AIR CONDITIONING. *whines* I escaped to the movie theatre today because I just could not take it anymore. I saw The Proposal, and on the whole I think it was a lazy movie. Nothing really new happened, but for the first time Ryan Reynolds did not annoy me. Also, Sandra Bullock would make great casting for any upcoming Michael Jackson biopics that may be in the works since his death. I'm totally serious, look at those cheekbones! The nose would need some work though, but that can totally be done with makeup.
I've been rewatching Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman here lately, and have been revamping my attitude towards the show. I was much younger and idealistic whenever it first aired (I was either 14 or 15 when it went off the air), so I remember many of the episodes with an almost childlike wonder, and now that I'm an adult I find some of the premises laughable. Dr. Mike is so bullheaded I'm surprised she ever convinced anyone to agree with her, and I'm really surprised that Sully put up with it. I think that's the ultimate proof that he's really not a believable character, must have been Beth Sullivan's dream man, Joe Lando is hott though. (Yes, ladies, with 2 t's...)
Sache, I finished out the first season of Eureka, and unfortunately have decided to abandon it. I did enjoy the scene you were talking about, but I noticed that you can't see Henry's face through half of it, and for me acting is so much more than just the lines I felt a little cheated by not being able to see every facet of his performance. I really do enjoy S.A.R.A.H. though, and think that there should be a series about a smart house like that and it's POV about the occupants that come and go. Perhaps what they do to encourage loyalty or to drive off certain tenants. :)
So, I need to change my name. Megan Lee is already taken in both Equity and SAG and I really need to start building my resume under the name that is going to be the face of my career. I keep waiting for the perfect name to come to me, or bowl me over, or perhaps just beat me about the head and shoulders, but nothing is really coming of it. I really want to keep some aspect of my name out of respect to my parents because (after all) they did put alot of time and effort into me and my name, and somehow it seems disrespectful to just toss it out the airlock as it were. I briefly hit upon Megan O'Malley, (keeps both my first and last names in a skewed sense) but there is already a Megan Mulalley (Karen from Will & Grace whom I love and adore) which is just too close for comfort. Any suggestions?
The latest round of names is to cut out my last name entirely and go by Megan Daniell (cutting out the last e of my middle name and making it my new last name). Thoughts, suggestions, comments? *sigh*
Also, I think I want to be tricked into a relationship. I don't do well with the traditional "Let's date and see if we are really compatible and then I'll ask you to be my significant other, etc. etc." I tend to freak out really easily and bolt with those type of relationships. I need to be fooled into a relationship. My best ones have worked out when all of a sudden I realize months in that "Oh crap, I have a boyfriend... WHEN IN THE HECK DID THAT HAPPEN?!?!?!"
I think I'm just a little lonely. I had friends from Texas visit last week. 1 had just celebrated her 1 year wedding anniversary and the other has recently been engaged to an Army man. We took Sara wedding dress shopping and Lacey and I tried on bridesmaid dresses and just had a ton of fun! But, it just gets you thinking. I guess when it rains it pours, but when will a guy appear who wants me for me and I want him for him, and there aren't too many obstacles in the way (I'm not so naive as to think that there won't be any.)
I'll be 25 in a little over a week. A year ago I was in San Francisco mourning the loss of being 23 which was a great year for me, and in an acting program and discovering all sorts of new possibilities for my life. This year, I'm finally in New York City, living out my dreams and having some success, but it's been different than I expected, everything always is.
In the inestimable words of Galinda from the musical Wicked-- "I couldn't be happier, though it is I admit, the tiniest bit unlike I anticipated... Cause getting your dreams is strange, but it seems, a little, well, complicated. There's a kind-of a sort of cost. There's a couple of things get lost, there are bridges you cross you didn't know you crossed until you crossed. And if that joy, that thrill, doesn't thrill like you think it will, still... Who wouldn't be happier, so I couldn't be happier, because happy is what happens when all your dreams come true, well isn't it?" I truly understand that song now. Moreso than I could ever explain.
Avenue Q is closing on September 13, on my 1 year anniversary of moving to NYC. That kind of makes me sad. Ummm, let's see. My job sucks, but it's a job that pays the bills and if I were to work anywhere else I'd be taking a paycut, so that's out for right now. My maitre'd is a pain in the you know where however who is making my life SUPER difficult. *sigh* What do you do though. Have to work on the 4th of July. Sad day.
My kitten is so cute and not a kitten anymore, but she does not get the hint that 90 degrees with 90 percent humidity with NO A/C is not cuddle weather.
I had something else to say, but it has escaped me for the moment. Oh well. Next time. Hope you all are well! Catch ya on the flip side!
Always,
~Meg
