Whew. You just finished up a fun holiday show. You went on a great vacation with your beautiful girlfriend. You got a decent day job that ends at four in the afternoon every day, leaving you lots of free time. Things are looking pretty good. You’re all set to start conquering this theatre scene.

You’ve got plenty of time for auditions. You’ve got some good contacts. Time to get back out there! Look out, world!

Spring shows! Summer shows! Acting schools! They’re all looking for young talent, and you’re starting to build a solid résumé. The moment is now. It’s time to strike!

Go for it! No time like the present! Come on, now, let’s show this sorry city the true meaning of acting!

You’ve got the headshots! They’re sitting in a huge pile on your desk. Get up and start sending them out. Get them to casting directors! Agents! You know what to do!

Act fast! Strike while the iron is hot! No time like the prese- wait, I already said that.

Well, uh, Go! Now! JUST DO IT.™

THEATRE!!!

Anytime now.

I mean, okay, well, yeah, you can finish that snack first. I’m not some cruel taskmaster. It’s not like you need to start right right now.

Oh, and take a shower? Maybe a bit of a nap? Seems reasonable. Hygiene and rest come first, of course.

Yeesh. Your legs are pretty sore from all that dog walking. Your phone says you walked… 9.82 miles! That’s a lot of miles! And you climbed 44 flights of stairs! You’re awesome. Time to watch some YouTube as a reward. Hey, the Ant-Man trailer is out!

Eh, Ant-Man doesn’t look great. You wish Edgar Wright had ended up directing it. His movies are fantastic. Although, you never did get around to seeing Hot Fuzz. How can you call yourself an Edgar Wright fan if you’ve never seen Hot Fuzz? And here it is! Right here on the internet! Look at that. Let’s just see what the start is like, huh?

Wow. That movie was spectacular. What was I talking about?

No, seriously, what was I talking about?

Memorize your lines?

I feel like we covered that.

Huh.

Ah, well. Memorize your lines or something. I’m going to bed.
