an un-fantastick audition

tonight, i did the unthinkable. i auditioned. :O

it was HARD! very mentally straining, to be honest. i mean, thank goodness taylor was there, or i might've dropped dead from mime anxiety right on the spot. but seriously. it was so weird. i mean, it certainly helped that Sister Rider went first and broke the ice and made everything okay, but miming "Doe a Dear" TWICE was a little more than my poor nerves could take. i was so terrified.


and then---there was singing. at least taylor was there to go first and do awesome and make me feel like i could never compete with her. thanks, taylor. haha :P. but seriously. i get up there, totally psyched out, begin to sing, and after getting through the first couple of lines, i realize that i don't actually know the words to "have yourself a merry little christmas". whoops.


note to self: if self is planning on auditioning for a musical, it would be wise to review a piece of music, in order to insure that self actually knows the words, before trying to sing it.


at least it was an interesting experience. if i get cast as a mime, though, i have a mysteriously invisible broken ankle that completely prevents me from miming. a completely tragic ailment, actually. you'd be surprised :P

if i get a crappy part (unless you have a crappy part too) i am going to publish an obituary in the newspaper. that should suffice as a reasonable excuse, right? ;]
