finish last, famish first

So here's how it is: I keep everything I have, with the exception of my checking account, and expect to receive no further outside aid. Meaning my savings account is safe, not that there's all that much in it.

After mulling this over for a bit and, finding no reason not to, I got trite and pulled a Grantaire at three o' clock on a rainy Thursday.

Definitely not the smartest decision I've made. However, seeing as most people seem to be of the opinion that I am incapable of making sensible decisions at all, I figure I have a reputation to live up to.

I made it through my eight o' clock rehearsal without a hitch, all the same. And, as an added bonus, I slept well for the first time in heaven knows how long. Granted, I dreamed my soc prof was having an affair with Jack the Ripper, but even so, 'twas a small price to pay.

If Grantaire was an insomniac, I have no trouble at all perceiving how he fell into his vice, insomuch as he fell into it at all. As opposed to, say, embracing it or some such thing.

I do not, that is, intend to turn into an R. A girl has to draw the line somewhere.

And now I have to head off to be a volunteer usher and chat with the director of the scene I volunteered to be in. I'm never going to get ahead in this world if I don't stop volunteering, am I? Now's a time to find out, alas. This could be rather interesting.

Adieu.
