Whew

I am so glad that this weekend is over. I didn't really get how much of a strain it was on me until the cast meeting tonight. There I was, dog tired and loaded with caffeine. It was all I could do to finally get my mouth to stop running.

The cast election is over. It went more or less as I expected.Questions asked of the candidates were more or less as I expected (except for one excellent one by veggiebelle. I don't think any votes changed based on the statements and Q/A responses. But I was clearer about many things that I've been agitating for and why I might as well shut up. :)

Our show, a trip to Sins, LS rehearsal and Cast meeting. Soon, I'll will go to bed and I will be happy about that.

As a mass

I often talk about humanity as if it were a single organism. I believe that it is, in practice, just that. Individuals vary widely and differ greatly, but as a collective, we are pretty predictable and we can easily fit without broad models of human behavior. Whole branches of the Humanities are based on that assumption.

Sometimes people in my life have a little trouble with the way I say the stuff I say about human beings because they don't fit the model as I explain it. But my models are just models and do not consider the variation from one person to another.

Now I find that I have a similar peeve as some of my friends. :) I notice that a few people will tell me that my personal experience of the world can't be so because I don't fit their perceptions of the world.

The example that has come up several times in the last year concerns how I learn physical things. Be it in Crazed Imaginations or in anything else. I am being told either directly or indirectly that anyone can quickly what I clearly cannot quickly learn.

It's irritating as hell.

That's good

Slept reasonably well last night. I'm happy about that :)
