Goals and dreams: big ones... again

okay, I know, I know, I can't stop thinking about big scary goals and dreams right now, but always, yeah... here's some more I've been thinking of.

What are my major goals/dreams in life?

Several, but right now: to find a place where me, my dog, and my 10 cats can live together, instead of some of them having to stay with relatives (thankfully they all survived the fire, but the apartment I'm in now, won't let me keep them all with me :( )

My other goal, is to get a better (higher paying) job so that I can afford an apartment that will allow me to have a dog and 10 cats living with me.

Those two were goals; this one is a goal-dream: to get one of my plays accepted by a local stage company, and made into a stage production... doesn't need to be anything big, even a high school play... I just want to see them brought to life.

I live in what is called Maine's "Arts District", there is the state theater, the town theater, a drama college, the state cultural hall, 2 ballet schools (college type profesional dance schools), the New England Ice Capades headquarters, a few dozen small amature theaters, several "private" theaters in upstairs lofts, and every local high school has it's own drama group. There are about 4 dozen small acting troupes (most very amature, many use no costums or scenery at all) all less than 40 mins from me. Plus the world famous Portland Symphany Orchastra. (uhm... yeah, this is Portland, I'm talking about... the city the thinks and breathes nothing but theater, theater, and more theater)

Live theater is a REALY REALLY big thing around here. It's not an uncommon thing for practicly every one in the area to have worked in theater at some point, I myself am profesionally trained as a fashion designer for stage, however, I have never dared approach any of the acting troupes with a play before... call it a major case of cold feet, but it's a really big fear for me, to try to approach anyone with one of my plays. I'm terrified stiff of it! I need some major help in this area, if I'm going to make this goal real.



Well, I just felt like telling you all that. Anyways, there it is.
