June has been good so far, ladies and gentlemen! I hope to have some great official news to announce soon, but in the meantime I’d love to let you know how I educate myself about art, theater, history, science, music, and other important topics.

While it was a bit chilly yesterday, the sun was out and I was too. I had three Manhattan meetings (two regarding jobs and one rehearsal). Inspired by this blog entry on TheCallboard.com, I decided to take the subway down to 23rd and 5th, but then walk between all my other appointments and then take the subway home. After my […]

It was an emotional yet extremely fun four-day weekend for me (well, every day is a weekend when you’re looking for work, but I *worked* over this Saturday and Sunday)!!! Thursday was my Birthday, and for the most part I puttered around the house, cheered when cards and Facebook messages came through, and was very excited to see Marquee Five‘s […]
