It's a New Dawn, It's a New Day

Back into the swing of a new week and although I'd love to get out and actually start to sort things out, I am bound here till I have received a phone call Interview which could be anytime within the next 48 hours; specific, I know!
Most of the day spent on Twitter and Facebook, which not trying to sort out rooms here, it's like spring came early with all this 'spring cleaning' and now as the rain thunders down outside I find myself thinking about dinner and perhaps a little singing while I try and finish off tidying the bedroom, how boring am I?
I think the most exciting news was that Posh Spice is Pregnant or should I still be concerned that Jar Jar Binks has 'come out' as a bisexual. I don't see what the big deal is over it all. They are normal people like the rest of us, or is that my problem; actually treating everyone as equals?!

Song that inspired today's title and today in general is Michael Bublé with 'Feeling Good'.

Also sent out to friends the first 1000 words of "Ladies of the West End"... here's a sneaky clip for you all!

In life people say it’s who you know, not what you know. I’m not too sure I believe that is so true anymore. Looking around at those I have come to know, some that I’ve even come to love; I see people that have simply been born lucky, or had things happen to them by chance. When I look at some of my friends, even some of my family Shakespeare comes to mind. I’m not saying that any of them look at all like him, though give my uncle a few years and the hair could be receding just as much. But one of Shakespeare’s most famous quotes, used again and again by so many people: “Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.”

I think one of the greatest things to be thrust upon us all, as a global population is technology, the internet and the world wide reach that it brings to our fingertips... social networking! I find myself saying that it is thanks to these networks that I have some of my closest friends. Several of my closest friends. I tend to layer my friendships, though it may not always be for the best interest of my heart, or sanity for that matter. But I find that it leaves me feeling protected, less likely to be hurt. Less likely to be able to hurt others.

We didn’t start out as close as we are now; we only tended to meet at some weird social gathering around stage doors of West End theatres. Finding someone that didn’t seem too mad, that someone that you could talk to about the sets, costumes, songs, dance routines... the stars.

When I was a little girl, that’s all I wanted to be. Although my mother wasn’t interested my grandparents caught me dancing around the lounge to one of their South Pacific venal on full. Not really knowing or even understanding the words but mumbling along while dancing around, having raided my grandmother’s wardrobe and dressed in her special occasions outfit. I had big dreams of being on the stage; everything just felt like it was calling to me. The lights, make up, music, the dancing; oh how I loved the dancing. That’s really where it all begun for me. My grandparents took me to see a ballet show at the local theatre, it wasn’t anything grand like you find of the West End, or Broadway for that matter. But it was enough for me.

It's a work in progress, but I have to say I am rather proud to say that it feels like it is going somewhere. Will try write more tonight and post another snip it tomorrow.
