I just awoke from a great dream (a bit anxious and short of breath). I was about to go onstage for night 2 of a performance where I got to sing and dance.
My biggest concern pre-performance was that I didn’t have my knee pads (as there was some crawling on all fours with some light-twerking required for this part). It must have gone fine though since I don’t remember otherwise. Dreams are weird.
I would also like to note that I got to wear my animal print stretch pants.
(Not a current picture, but this is pretty much how sassy I felt after waking up from this dream and these stretchy yoga pants were part of my costume. I have another dream- that one day I will get paid to wear yoga pants).
The previous performance (in my dream) Liza Minnelli was in the audience- in Riverside, of all places. And she came up to me after the show and gave me accolades and also sent me a written card after the fact. I think this was what made me especially anxious for the 2nd performance.
(Workmare Notation: this dream was much preferred to my awakening in a panic from a property management nightmare a few days prior.)
Perhaps this is what happens when you sleep in a flying circusy bed in Kansas City. (Look forward to pictorial proof in the next post.) Imagine the real estate ideas zipping through my mind like a monkey on a circus train when I slept there!
But the most exciting part of this dream was waking up- and realizing that I am craving performance, artistic expression and goofiness…and I felt determination well up in me. And I thought, “Time to get back to my ‘fighting weight.” After all, this feeling is worth fighting for! (But first, the KCMO famous donut from Lamar’s #stillonvacation).
