Only after reading Alcestis on the way home from work and getting all starry-eyed at the thought of getting back into acting did it occur to me that working on a play this fall (assuming I can pass muster at an audition) might present some conflicts with taking an intensive after-hours science course, something I'm long overdue to pursue. My friends and family know how poorly I get on when my plate gets stacked too high, and at least one's already told me that pursuing both things at once would be a bad idea.

There is room for compromise, perhaps; I could just audit the course, which would make it much less time-consuming, but also less rewarding. Maybe. I dunno yet. I'll talk to my boss about it when he comes back from wherever he is.

Or I could just put the acting thing on hold for another year. But, see... I hate doing that to a oo shiny right after picking it up. Arrgh.

Fun evening at the House of Roses. Won at many-playered games of Wooly Bully and Evo, got booby prize at Bohnanza, as usual. (Got stuck with the One Cocoa Bean for the entire latter half of play.) Evo victory assisted by following Kyuss' advice to mutate eggishly at the start of the game, and favor tail-kinks later on when going first usually means winning several competitive land-grabs.
