Last time down the rabbit hole tonight. Slightly earlier than usual. An oil and gas company having their belated Christmas party at The Underglobe and muggins here is out on the street with ears stuck to a top hat, whiteface clown makeup, tights and great big padded arse with a fluffy rabbit tail on it.
“Is Christmas a very important date? I would suggest it is. You’re late for it.” It writes itself. I’ve got my patter down now for it and they were all a game lot. Getting a lot back from all of them. Maybe it helped that I’ve been away from it awhile, and coming back employed as an actor. I’m not gonna be second guessing myself as the confidence is up.
But that said, I’m a ruin of myself. That tooth extraction last night was literally a shock to the system. And then last night I blocked my back so I couldn’t lie on my right. I get my deep sleep on that side so it was a restless night. But I wanted to be absolutely sure it healed up nicely. Don’t want dry socket on the plane.
They absolutely rinsed me, that dentist, at a time when I’m already brassic. I’m gonna try to be as frugal as I can over there. Got to accumulate. I just spent half my tax bill on having my tooth pulled and I can’t afford to pay it at all now. But I’m employed and they will pay before long. Gonna cancel any subscriptions I can cancel like Deliveroo plus and get myself back in the game. This job is way too short to rely on.
I think I’ve packed. Hope so, we fly tomorrow morning. Brian lent me a good but not a huge case, and I’m bringing the denim bag Lou lovingly made for me, and my accordion.
