Though the so-called "work session" was over a week ago now, the taste had not left my mouth. I did not want to stand in front of more people with more power and have the same feelings of lgnorance and incompetence that swept over me the last time I performed these scenes. While driving around today, I took special care to not crash my car. I feared some part of my subconscious was going to cause me to miss a light or not notice another car. How easy would it be to call my agent form the emergency room? "They're just keeping me for observation, but I won't be able to make my audition." Problem solved. No embarassing performance and not my fault. Deus ex machina, after all.
But I survived the freeways long enough to reach the studio test this evening and the experience did not resemble the last one at all. i made the adjustment they had been hoping for all along and it was a hit. It was also much easier to perform this way and gave me much more hope for a future as Peterson.
One more step to go.
Go on to the Network Test.
