But seriously –
Never ruin a hobby, past time, passion, or good time but taking it too seriously. No, seriously, don’t do it. There was a time when I ‘acted’ in attempt to make a career of it. Not a successful attempt mind you. Had it been, you would know me much differently than this. I stopped pursuing…

More or less –
Well, here I am, Craig’s Listing it for work and listing items for sale. Happy Monday morning. It is not all bad really. A little motivation I suppose you could call it. Ya know, that habit of living indoors and eating food I buy or grow myself. Silly things really. (Yes, the garden is growing…

The end of the show –
This is always a strange time. The last evening of a run. When I get cast in a show it is usually something to be excited about. Then rehearsals start and the work begins. It is still fun and enjoyable for the most part but it is work, paid or not. Then, it becomes a…

I didn’t see that coming
There are certain things I expect when I go to the doctors office, depending on the doctors specialty. When I go to the dentist I expect some anxiety, fear, discomfort and pain. I also expect to laugh at the stereotypical question when my mouth is full of tools and fingers. When I go to the…

Let me clear something up –
OK – it has come to my attention that my angry, self-destructive, pointed and vague venting on this site concerns a person or two. I do not think it should so much but, I guess if I knew how to think proper I would not be rambling on in support or preemptive euthanasia. So, I…

Is poise the word?
It’s 7:15 am. I’m in a room with about 100 people. A young woman has been asked to read a page from a book. It is about six paragraphs, 14 point type, laminated page. I’ve heard it many times and read it some too. She starts off loud, clear, steady. In the second sentence she…

Nothing special –
OK, I know there should be, must be something I want to say. Some deep thang I have discovered about myself, life, God. A new delicacy easy to manage in my kitchen. A success on stage or goal met in school. Maybe just a good day. To use an over used expression, I got nothing.…

Sad sad news
No, no one has died. Not any one I know. Maybe in your life, I’m sorry if so. Be strong. Something has died, come to an end, will cease to exist. A place, a group, a refuge, a school and an overall wonderful place. The time has come to say goodbye to The Orange Curtain…

Goodbye, Hello & Goodbye
Wow. What an amazing two months. A roller-coaster of emotions, physical experience, mental highs-n-lows. We closed strong. Good audience, good energy, great time together. Thank you Sherryl, I cannot say that enough. Thank you. Marla, as always, a clinic, a fantastic learning opportunity. “Johnny” – thanks and goodbye! If you missed it, dang it! You…

Pride, Praise and Thank You’s
Pride is a bad thing right? Deadly sin an all that. Makes a person unattractive and generally hard to be around. Clouds the perspective of the prideful person as well. So then… …what do you do when someone tells you how well/good/nice you have done something and end this little bit of praise with, “You…
