A Revolutionary in Someone Else's Time
Feb. 10th, 2004 10:31 pmI'm really trying to get myself into the discipline of writing a little every day instead of a binge once a week.
Things I was thinking this morning:
Some little piece of me is still bitterly jealous that I was passed over for a singing role in high school by a girl named Tracy with a poor sense of pitch. One of my best friends (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
annissag) was the casting director, and she got to sing her pet song, and I didn't because she didn't cast me.
The stupidest part of this is, Annissa came to me at the end of the run and apologized for not casting me, so I didn't even have a direct cause of resentment to carry around anymore. And yet, humming that song for the first time in a year, there was my little jealous bitch voice going, "and I can sing it on key, so there!"
Petty and vindictive, I say.
By the way, it's come to my attention again that there were two French Revolutions. One involved Marie Antoinette and a lot of beheading, and the other involved barricades and singing moppets.
I presume just by the costuming that I've listed them in correct chronological order above, but I'm not completely positive. Can someone give me a better time fix and some relative historical hooks so I can anchor this in my head?
