I've had a nasty sinus thing for three days now -- to the point that I took off work yesterday (all 5 hours of it) so that I could continue to just sleep all the damn day in order to have enough energy for rehearsal last night. Because, seriously? Thursday night (Day 1 of sinus thing)? TERRIBLE REHEARSAL. My energy was about negative 35 when we started, so the first two scenes felt crappy/draggy, even with the excellent efforts of my leading/supporting men, and then when I finally did have some energy by Act 1.Scene 4, I couldn't remember my damn lines, because my entire brain felt as if it were wrapped in cotton gauze. So I had to call for line twice, and feel like an idiot. And have I mentioned I get water thrown on me FOUR TIMES DURING THIS SHOW?? So I was wet, on top of it all.....
Hence the ghetto sangria this evening. I had a pretty easy day of it -- slept in late, have taken at least 2,000mg of Vitamin C today, plenty of fluids...lots of down time...went to the gym and did light cardio (only 300 calories) to get the blood pumping and hopefully helping things along...but now it's late and I can't really just go to bed -- the lovely Ms. Molly is here for her week with us, and Jack's at work, so I feel the need to at least be conscious--so I am trying to keep myself present...so obviously, Ghetto Sangria is the answer. About equal parts orange juice and red wine...so you get double anti-oxidants and vitamin C!
