I saw a play tonight, Death of a Clown. A social commentary on conformity and life. I actually would definitely recommend it to anyone living in the Vancouver or Victoria area in the next couple of weeks to go and check it out. It was clever and witty and at times laugh out loud funny. It also left me feeling a little sad because in the end conformity wins. It is not a happy ending play and I couldn't help but feel the parallels in my life. I highly suspect that if D didn't have this overwhelming need to conform, to be liked, to be accepted... well lets just say I don't believe that I would be here, writing from the heartbreak hotel. But then again somehow his true character would have shown through and I would have eventually taken up lodging here. I wanted to believe I could make him a better man. That with me he wouldn't have to be a coward and I could show him the way idealism works. Ha ha. I was naive in that he would let me. I just feel I would have helped him be a better D.
Well there will be more thoughts on conformity soon. I just took a zopiclone though and I am now getting super sleepy.
Heading to Vtown tomorrow night. Looking forward to some family and friend time. Will keep you posted on the happenings if I can....
Yesterday, I almost ran over a small dog in my driveway. The dog is 10 inches long and about 7 inches high. I'm thinking that you need to be my car.
