1. Saw the Untitled Feminist Show tonight at BAC (but produced? by PS122) with Heather and it was really funny, fun and provoking. Once I found out it was almost entirely movement-based I was a little dubious but it was a great queer/woman/faggot vulnerability affirming work. World Famous *BOB* and Becca Blackwell (my friends) were in it and were of course magical (*BOB* cradles her boobs, breaks down striptease, has a mock fight and Becca does a queer masculinities movement monologue that was so wonderful). The other actors were extraordinary, especially a comedic mimed castration fantasy sequence by Lady Rizo. And a giant naked human vacuum cleaner using five bodies. It was gender on stage and it was gorgeous. Like a long naked poem.
2. Seeing amazing art was great for me tonight. So was seeing Heather. Having a burger and a flight of beers with a bestie was what my tantrum having soul needed. This move is weighing stress on me financially and psychologically and I constantly have to remind myself that worrying about getting everything done is not actually going to get anything done. So I am trying to check out of that stress. Also we acted out the beer menu as we tasted the beers in the flight. I made a rooster noise for the rooster brew.
3. I also recognize I am coping personally with a lot of stress and change right now and it is really okay to want to throw a purse on the floor with all my might.
4. I sent a multi-part email asking for help today and just asking was really helpful. Even if a third of the folks I asked can show up for an hour or two it will be a huge weight lifted off of me.
5. Tonight The World Famous *BOB* introduced me to an incredible downtown artist as a “talented performer, femmecee, show producer and also she’s a well-dressed lawyer.” Sometimes my life is so incredible I have to pinch myself.
