I'm a character.
Some say a cartoon character.
Some say a nerd or geek type.
Some say a comedienne.
Some say a sarcastic bitch.
Some say a sounding board.
It's something that I've crafted over years and is centered around entertaining people. I rarely break character.
There are things that are expected out of me by friends, family, colleagues, students and I will play the role... usually even if I don't feel the part.
During a drive along Highway 50 as the country rolled out ahead of me I wondered if I had become so good at playing this character that I had lost myself in it.
To a point I think I have and when I reflect I will put myself into those roles on how to react, how to act, and how to be.
In acting class we learned about acting with a mask on and when you can make that mask come alive and you see the faces moving through words and overt body language.
The Greeks would be proud.
Ceasing Ramble.
