In theater, there is one thing you never do: talk about or quote Macbeth. There are curses attached to even the mere mention of the show. It is believed that the "evils" in the show placed real curses on the actors in the show, as in almost every production, actors would die bizarre deaths on opening night or be seriously injured. Those who live would live torturous lives from then on.
Shakespeare is ruining my life? Right. But it really would be the only thing I haven't done to screw my life up. Murphy's Law: anything bad that can happen, will happen. Lauren's Law: anything bad that could happen happens even worse than imagined because my life likes to toy with me.
If there is a show the curses your love life, I'm pretty sure I was the star of it...twice. If there was a show that curses you future as a whole...I think I'm signed up to be a co-star. But, according to Lauren's Law, I should be cursed beyond eternity. It's the next step, right?
(I'm beginning to realize how ramble-ish this post is, but by the "it's 7 in the morning" rule, it is decent)
So, what's my next step? Starting tomorrow I'm seeing a guy I've been talking to for a while for 4 days while we are facilitators at a camp. While, at the same time, I will be working with the same guy I talked about in my last post on a duet for an upcoming concert. Something bad is going to happen. I can sense it. Feel it in my bones.
So, thanks Macbeth. I didn't die during the show, but you sure are leaving your footprints in my life....
