I was just thinking about our discussion of Next to Normal, when Reggie said that the show was saying that if we all got off of medication everything would be fine. That struck a chord with me because I’m on medication for a mental disorder, and not being on it gets very, very bad. Like, convincing myself I’m going to die bad if I don’t use the right towel. Medication basically saved my life. For a while last year I weaned myself off of it, but things just got bad again. There’s a good chance that I’ll be on it forever.
Today I spent a lot of time by myself today, which was really cool. After Grace, I was supposed to meet Jason Vail, but we had to reschedule because he got caught up in errands, so I went down to the river and walked around. I got some really beautiful pictures of the sunset behind the skyline. Then I managed to get all the way back uptown and to the Palace all on my own, which I was really excited about. Bobby and I went to Canal Street earlier today where I got all kinds of fun knock off stuff. I also had my first interview this morning, with Susan Heyward, who recently moved here to the city. Talking with her was so fun! She was absolutely frank with me about everything in the business, whether it was good or bad and I really appreciated it. Tomorrow I have 3 different interviews, and I’m super excited.
