Stealing From Others for My Own Amusement

David and Joshie did this one, so here's mine:

10 YEARS AGO I:
1. Was 25 years old.
2. Was having casual sex with a married man who had two little girls, though his wife was very comfortable with his gay relationships…
3. Lived on Princeton in a very sad, little rented room in the house of a 35-year old Christian bachelor whom I thought was kinda sexy.
4. Just started working for Lockheed Martin for 4 months – I started as a temp “Kelly Girl” and went full-time in less than a month.
5. Was trying to end a friendship with an intelligent, generous sociopath who was later convicted of several accounts of fraud and identity theft.

FIVE YEARS AGO I:
1. Was just starting to get sick of my supervisory job at Lockheed Martin, though I loved my seven employees. I was just bored with the work, because it was too easy for us.
2. Had just completed the first production of the first Almeida-Miller full length collaboration Leaving Neverland at Theater Downtown. (It had also played successfully earlier in the year in Tallahassee).
4. Had just moved from house-sitting my adopted mom’s house to Chateau Crevasse (French for “crack house”), a place I stayed in until Cathy and I found a place in July.
5. Just quit my second job an online movie reviewer.
6. Was pulling music for Jerry & Mark to pick for their wedding in March.

TWO YEARS AGO I:
1. Was almost two years into my current job as a consultant for De La Porte and expanding my possibilities as much as I could.
2. Was excited because Almeida-Miller's second play Sons of the Revolution had been picked for a PRT staged reading.
3. Was starting to push David and my comic strip “Pockets of Evil”, which didn’t go anywhere.
4. Was the fattest I’ve ever been.
5. Was starting to plan my vacation with my friends who agreed to go to Iowa.

ONE YEAR AGO I:
1. Was absolutely pumped that I was meeting with Russ Blackwell, Sarah French, and Marty Stonerock this next weekend to read through Intermission, a play that PRT picked for their entry into Fringe. (Later, the local legend Chris Jorie would direct other local lengends Anne Hering, Robyn Scrivener and David Lee Bass).
2. Just finished Assassins, where I’d made some great friends.
3. Was recovering from Matty’s birthday party.
4. Was doing pre-production on Whipping Wally Wonker, another play David and I scribbled for Fringe
5. Was starting to miss David, because he was in back-to-back plays.

YESTERDAY I:
1. Spent a day at the office with a cold, patiently awaiting to see what my raise would look like after taxes.
2. Helped a friend.
3. Avoided exercising “because of my cold.”
4. Met an ex – see other post.
5. Lost sleep listening to Cathy, who had just gotten off of YET AGAIN ANOTHER REDUNDANT fight with her boyfriend.

TODAY I:
1. Purposely slept late, but my cold is worse because I didn’t get to sleep until midnight – see #5 above.
2. Went to my doctor to get a shot for my cold and have my shoulder checked (we’re doing super).
3. At work (today at Bombs-R-Us), I planned out the sessions I am leading this afternoon to get people started on their confidential performance assessments.
4. Took a Sucrets and a decongestant – I believe that drugs can relieve any human suffering.
5. Read Joshie’s post about work and said a little prayer that everything would work out.
6. Realized my raise wouldn't come until next paycheck, and was frustrated that they still haven't reimbursed me for my business travel to Dallas in early December.

TOMORROW I WILL:
1. Go to work and try to concentrate on some things I hadn’t gotten done.
2. Do some more blogging.
3. Have a net-meeting with Ocala Bombs-R-Us folks on their assessments.
4. Hope I’m over this cold so I can exercise.
5. Bake something for work, maybe… Cheesecake?
