The First 48

So far, so good.

No one has been hurt and I was able to channel my tension into my ongoing battle with my landlord over contractual obiligations. Am I having fun? Well, no, I wouldn't say it's fun, and it's not really normal yet, but it was only Day 2 and this is no cakewalk. Pardon the term.

My cravings were not as great yesterday, and the few I had were not for things I normally crave. This year will make my 25th as a vegetarian, and my first trying (it hasn't been perfect) to be vegan. As a result, my usual cravings have been dairy; ice cream, butter, a bagel with cream cheese. Yeasterday, on the train ride home I found myself daycreaming about an Omlette with Swiss and Mushrooms. I haven't had an omlette in a year, and I haven't particularly missed them either. Carrying my boss's coffee back to the office, I found myself sniffing it. When I catch a scent in the air, my mind needs to break it down. "I know it's bacon, but it smells like something wrapped in bacon. Scallops? Hmmm . . . what does a scallop smell like. Well, I know, but I mean a cooked scallop. And not a fried scallop, more like a broiled . . . OMG! Am I really . . ."

Yes, you would think with everything on my plate; auditioning 4-5 times/week, writing a piece with friends, reading a pilot I may have a shot at, looking for a new monologues, crisis in Northern Africa and the Middle East and oh yeah, going to work, that I wouldn't have the time to ponder the smell of what may or may not have been a scallop for an entire city block.
