it's clear to see that you've become obsessed

Mood: Tired, but still oh so happy. X3

Listening to: "Every Day I Love You Less And Less" by Kaiser Chiefs
Reading: "Wicked" by Gregory Maguire. I'm halfway through! (It's fetching long...)

Originally, yesterday at around 10:50, this post was going to be named. "I didn't make it." And I was going to start the post with perhaps an explicit word or two.

But here's the deal. We went to see the list around 10:45 or something, and my name was not on it. I cried. I stood there and I bawled. I couldn't believe it. I noticed that Lindsey had Carrie and Carolyn got Julie and Emily got Mrs. Mullin, and then I skipped back down to the chorus to see if maybe I missed myself. No. All I saw were, like, four Jensens. No Johnsons.

So, my mom took me out yard saling, and all I could do was cry. I was sooooooo bummed. I just wanted to go home.

So we finally got home around 11:47, and I saw that someone had left a message on our phone. It was Ms. LaForge (the director and drama teacher). She told me to call her. The message was only three minutes old. So I pounced on the phone and called. The dialogue went much like this.

LaForge: Hello, Brittany?
Me: Yeah.
LaForge: I'm just calling to apologize. I was looking through my cast lists and I realized that I had left your name off. I forgot to type it, or didn't see it, or something. I'm sorry.
Me: ... *standing there in open-mouthed amazement*
LaForge: Ah, have you seen the list yet?
Me: Yeah. *still standing there*
LaForge: Well, I'm sorry for any grief this may have caused.
Me: *finally kicking into the present* Thank you. Oh, thank you.
LaForge: Yeah. So, I'll see you on Tuesday?
Me: Yes, oh, yes, Thank you. Thank you so much.

Ohmagash. I had a hysterical freak-out after that. I was crying, my mom was crying, we were sooooo happy.

So yeah, I'm in. I'm in the chorus. !!!! X3

And Lindsey and Michael got Carrie and Billy.

But who cares? (sorry, guys) I'M IN!!!! <333333

Oh, but here's the thing. I'm sick with a sore throat and a runny nose. Killer.... I need some medicine. XD
