I Miss You Guys...

Hi Internet! It sure has been awhile, huh? Cool thing- We have no money at the Crack House, and because of that, Internet and cable are a thing of the past. Thanks Jamie for this Internet time! It's wonderful to feel the hard plastic keys under my fingers. The tappy noise is awesome. I could sit here and update you guys for hours just to hear that noise!

But I don't have time. This update will be like the last few. Annoying and boring and just touching on the basics of what is happening in Lacey-Land. One day, when I have the Internet available to me from the comfort of my own bed, I will start updating again. When that happens I expect everyone to start commenting again! And you guys will get yours too. It will be a great day.

.... The BBQ place I have been working at since March went bankrupt. It was terrible and sad. Now I have a job at an Italian place where I will still make barely enough money to live. I feel kind of like a loser because all I do is work and pay bills and have fun, but I plan on slowly going back to school... My sister and I are taking a math class and a yoga class next semester. Like I said- slowly.

.... I just closed The Rocky Horror Show where I played Janet- one of my dream roles. It was VERY fun. I would do it again in a heartbeat.

.... Eric is perfect, in case you were worried about that going awry, as per usual. Nope. Still perfect. Halloween was a blast and a half. We stayed in character almost all night. I think we got out every one liner from the first and second movie alike. SO much fun.

.... And that is all for now, folks! Enjoy these couple pictures from Rocky Horror (One where I was in it and one where I came to see it) and then the couple Halloween pics, and I will catch you guys on the flip side!

"You beast! You monster! What have you done with Brad!?"
"Nothing! Why? Do you think I should...?"


Dressing up to see it was almost as fun as being in it.
"Party on, Wayne!" "Party on, Garth!" "Excellent!"


....And then I caught Swine Flu!!!!!!!
....I'm back to brown hair! It should be blonde by Christmas though... :o)
Also- Look at Eric's Garth-hair... it is actually his real hair (except for the bangs which I made with a wig and a headband)... We straightened it, and it took just about forever.

Not Enough Karma

Lloyd is in Rocky Horror Picture Show with me. So far, rehearsals have been fine. Very awkward, yes, but fine. Much better than in May when I tried to do a show with him. That was just too soon. Too close to that terrible night that ruined lives and horrified others. During rehearsal, we avoid any and all contact, be it verbal, physical, or even eye contact. We find ourselves on opposite sides of the room. He buries himself in comic books or friends, and I bury myself in Word Warp on my iPhone (or Unblock Me- also a great game). A few days ago however, Lloyd texted me and asked if we could just stop this and be friends. We really can't be friends, I told him, but at least we could speak like normal people and make eye contact.

As much as I hate Lloyd, I really cannot afford the Karma it takes to hold a grudge. He didn't cripple my credit and my finances, therefore ruining a good few years of my life, Like he did to Eric. I suppose because I am selfish, I can at least forgive him for all the hurt he caused me over the last coulple years. I was the one who put up with it and kept letting him do it to me over and over again. My bad, really...

In other news- Tristan is crowning right now as I type this. I will be going to Houston (for real this time) on Friday to meet him. I wish I was there but at the same time I wonder how I would handle being there.

Rocky Horror and Tristan Vaughn

Just a couple things today....





1. I got cast as Janet Weiss in the Rocky Horror Show in Grapevine!!!! I am so excited! This is up there in my top 5 dream roles! Woohoo!



2. My Godson, Tristan, is scheduled to be born early Sunday morning, so after my show on Saturday, Jamie and I will be road tripping it to Houston to kiss the baby and then leave in time for me to be back Sunday at 7 for rehearsal. I wish I could skip this ONE rehearsal, but we only have a few weeks. Rocky Horror opens October 16th.

My house is complete and awesome. My boyfriend is awesome. My job is less than awesome, but I am thankful that I have a job!

....So that's it. Pretty lame. No great stories. Not this time.

Home Sweet Home

The Crack House is almost completely 100% livable. For now we still need a refridgerator and a washer/dryer. Even Craigslist is too expensive for us at this point, but soon enough! Unpacking and working and doing shows is very difficult, but like I said- we are almost finished! Woohoo!

That's really all I have for an update? Wow. What a lame life lately.....


Oh! I auditioned for some more shows....Rocky Horror Picture Show... Dog Sees God.... some Christmas show... So that's pretty lame. I don't have the time or money to do that.

...it's a serious addiction!

"Mom just told me the story of how she lost her virginity."
"....You win."

-Dave and I. I miss him!

The Crack House

Callie, Eric and I have officially moved into our new (old) townhome! We call it The Crackhouse, because it seems the people that lived here before us didn't bother cleaning up before us, and the landlady missed a couple things (Needles in a random drawer, crackpipes in peices outside in the corner...etc). Other than a couple quirks, this place is a steal. So much room for so cheap! The neighborhood isn't terrible. I was awoken yesterday morning to the sounds of children playing outside. There are quite a few of them in these townhomes.
Unpacking is a different post all together. Mainly because we are FAR from finished unpacking. Today will be a good day for that because neither of us work until much later. So I am off to borrow my moms obnoxious Rainbow Whatever vaccuum cleaner....and buy gloves... Have a great Wednesday, everybody!

"So your mom tells me you and Callie don't want me to know where you live."
"We don't want anyone to know where we live."

-Dad and I.....It's true that we don't want them to know where we live, but soon enough our daughterly guilt will get to us.

One Year Ago

One year ago:

7:45am: Woke up to get ready for 9am class. Woke up early for no reason. Lived alone in an apartment that I both loathed and loved.

Today:

6:45am: Woke up early for no reason. Knot in my throat.

One year ago:

8am: took the pregnancy test I promised I would take for Lloyd because I was due to start my period the day before and I had not. My periods were like clockwork so he was worried.

Today:

7am: Rolled over and tried not to think about it.

One year ago:

8:03am: just stared at it.

Today:

7:03am: filled with every tiny detailed memory about that day a year ago. I remember what my apartment smelled like. I remember who I called. In what order. Stoically getting ready for school. Remembered every thought I had that morning.

One year ago today:

Not one tear all day.

Today:

As few tears as possible. Tried very hard not to cry all day. Had an okay day. It's always there in the back of my mind. Especially today.
