My first official week working at the Edinburgh Playhouse is over. Well i say week, but my new job gives me Bank Holidays off so i only worked four days. I think since it's taken me to the age of 27 to find a job that includes them, i'm going to be enjoying every single Bank Holiday so much more.
So far, everything has been great. I'm really excited about the different aspects of the job, and i'm working with a really nice group of people. We've got some great shows coming to the venue this year, so the plan is to try and see as many as possible. If i had to pick one that i'm most excited about, it would definitely be Wicked. It was fantastic when i saw it in New York in December, and it's coming to The Playhouse for eight weeks at the end of the year.
I've started writing a bit more recently, and i did my second piece for The Huffington Post too. I wrote a blog about the some of the media assumptions that were flying about after Peaches Geldof died, especially the link to her liking Suicide Girls on Instagram. It's on The Huffington Post website, so if you want to read it then click here. I'm also trying to do as much as i can for The Banter at the moment, so you can also read my review of the new Kaiser Chiefs album here.
The other areas of my life are going pretty well, or at least have some promise. I guess that's code for i can't really write about on here in case those people read what i'm saying. I also burnt my thumb really badly earlier tonight while i was taking some kale our the oven, so everything from this paragraph has had be to typed with one hand, while the other is stuck in a cup on cold water.
