We're just ordinary people

Last night i met people i trained to be an actor with. It was strange and nice all at the same time. Most of the time i don't see other actors which consequently means i end up spending a lot of time with people that  aren't actors, which is good, but i do feel bit of an outsider. A lot of the work i do is temporary cover, which means that i go to a lot of workplaces where people don't really know how to treat me and when i tell them i'm an actor they are interested but i can tell they don't really get it, which is fine, i don't really expect them to get it. But being back with actors is nice, hearing about their day jobs, and what little acting tidbits they have found. Also it is nice to be around people who understand the temping thing, you don't have to pretend it's fine around those people, you can just be and compare stories. It is also nice to know that i am still on a parr with them all, no better , no worse. which is great. Again being away from acting peeps, i lose sight of how i'm doing. And it's very easy to think that everybody is doing better. Not the case.
