Thursday. Spoon river 'series' class based on the Baker book, Cops. Imaginary circumstances brought us all together and gave us an opportunity to talk about what it was like for each of us to be a cop and to relate experiences and tell stories to one another (based on the real stories in the book). A fantastic two hours. Emotional, real and incredibly visceral. Laughing, crying, always listening intently to the other people as they spoke and telling our stories as they happened to us. It was incredible. No-one 'played' at being a cop (that's not how to 'act', by the way), we were just all real people talking to each other and telling our own stories. Wow.
Received my Health pack from SAG!! Woohoo! Yes, I finally qualified for the health plan. I cannot believe it. It's quite an achievement, honest, and it takes the pressure off not being insured in this damn country with no free healthcare. You could bloody die here and no-one would give a toss. Anyway, hoorah!
