an update

It's been a while.  A long while.  So, here's an update (of sorts) on my life.

Work... really good right now.  This past week was especially nice, and actually a bit relaxing for a change.  Sueno is now in tech, which means that my duties on the show ended, and I walked away from it rather happily.  It'll be good, and I love the people, but it was also gonna be a bear in tech and I was happy not to have to deal with it.  Now I'm on Bad Dates, which was in tech last week and opened last night.  Because Melissa is leaving, they put me on the run of the show, which wasn't originally one of my shows, but now it is.  I'm acting as ASM for it.  It's a one-woman show in the Stiemke, with LOTS of shoes, shoeboxes, and clothing.  I get to touch things, and do scene shifts!  Yay.  Next week we start prep for Intimate Apparel, so I'll be in rehearsal for that during the day and then go do Bad Dates at night.

Melissa is leaving tomorrow.  She's the other SM intern, and decided to leave the program and go back home to Tennessee.  I support her decision and blah blah blah, but I'm gonna miss her so much.  She's definitely my best friend here, so it's going to be weird to shift to NOT having her here.  When I need someone to bitch about work with, unwind with at the Cab, hang out with  late at night, eat breakfast with in the Cafe, walk home with, etc., she's the person I go to.  She's also the person whose door I knock on with huge puffy red eyes and snot and tears and grossness all over my face.  So yeah, she will be missed.  Last night we had a farewell party of sorts for her in the Cab...it was also the opening night party for Bad Dates, so free beer, and it was fun.  Sigh.

The Holidays were lovely!  I really meant to send Christmas cards to sooo many people this year, but then I only sent out like 15.  So if you didn't get one and thought you would, sorry!  I really meant to send you one.  Beth got here on Friday the 23rd, then mom got here on Saturday the 24th, and both of them stayed until Saturday the 31st.  I'm so glad they were able to come here since I only had two days off, and it was a nice week.  The dinner we made in my kitchen was pretty impressive despite how few kitchen utensils I actually have, haha.  After we ate on Christmas I got sick and started throwing up though, so that wasn't the best thing ever.  So I laid in bed for two days straight with a fever, and threw up a lot at night, but at least my mommy was here to take care of me!  We watched a LOT of Lost season 1, I skipped a day of work, and Moth had lots of company for once in her life!

My birthday was fun enough.  The cabaret had free champagne, so we went there; I think everyone had a good time.  Lesley (the Sueno SM) made me truffles (SO YUMMY), and Cristina made me brownies, and I felt generally loved.

The Golden Globes just came on, and I'd like to watch them, so I'll wrap up with the top five things running through my mind right now.
-Brokeback Mountain...AMAZING
-Last week's Lost...not so great, IMO.  But I can't wait for this week's!
-Being single for the first time in three years is quite an adjustment.  Crazy how much you have to revise the way you think. 
-I love Becky and Amanda (B Sizzle and AW Dizzle).  I'm so glad I got to work with them on Sueno.
-Johnny Depp is hot.

But in a sarcastic, somewhat nasty way." - Jimmy Kaplan

                                  The Window Shopper   Random  Gentle Love Dreamer      (RGLDf)

Loving, hopeful, open. Likely to carry on an romance from afar. You are The Window Shopper.          

You take love as opportunities come, which can lead to a high-anxiety, but high-flying romantic life.  You're a genuinely sweet person, not saccharine at all, so it's  likely that the relationships you have had and will have will be happy ones.  You've had a fair amount of love experience for your age, and there'll be much more to come.          

Part of why we know this is that, of all female types, you are the most prone  to sudden, ferocious crushes. Your results indicate that you're  especially capable of obsessing over a guy you just met. Obviously, passion like this makes  for an intense existence. It can also make for soul-destroying letdowns.          

Your ideal match is someone who'll love you back with equal fire, and someone you've grown to love slowly. A self-involved or pessimistic man is especially bad. Though you're drawn to them, avoid artists at all costs.

interesting, but, alas, incorrect

               Joe Normal
      39 % Nerd, 39% Geek, 30% Dork                        For The Record:

A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
You scored less than half in all three, earning you the title of: Joe Normal.

This is not to say that you don't have some Nerd, Geek or Dork inside of you--we all do, and you can see the percentages you have right above. This is just to say that none of those qualities stand out so much as to define you. Sure, you enjoy an episode of Star Trek now and again, and yeah, you kinda enjoyed a few classes back in the day. And, once in a while, you stumble while walking down the street even though there was nothing there to cause you to trip. But, for the most part, you look and act fairly typically, and aren't much of an outcast.

I'd say there's a fair chance someone asked you to take this test. In any event, fairly normal.

Congratulations!

If you enjoyed this test, I would love the feedback!

Year in Review (kinda)

Go to your Calendar and find the first entry for each month of 2005.
Post the first line of it in your journal, and that's your Year In Review:

January:  yeah, but you're not a ninja
February:  Found this on Neil Gaiman's blog and it made me laugh...
March: I put together a bunch of quotes that seem to go along well with what I've been feeling recently.
April: I guess it's been awhile since my last update.
May: AOL Journals need cut-tags
June: more pre-graduation pictures; Courtesy of Lori (similar to mine, but good!):
July: I love it when captions are all screwy.
August:  Hi all, I'm alive and well and Milwaukee is great so far. September:  I realized that under "About Me" I'vew had the wrong number listed as my Apartment phone number for a long time now.
October:  Another review for A Flea in Her Ear... methinks this one was written for the UWM paper, so not the most thruilling read ever, but...eh.
November:  The most beautiful dog ever passed away early Tuesday morning. 
December:  After numerous rounds of "We don't even know if Osama is still
alive," Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his
own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.

That was an interesting representation of my year.  I bet it would work better if it was like, the third entry for every month instead of the first one.  Or choose ONE (any one) from each month..  Yeah, that'd work better.  What a weird year, really. I think I'm gonna go shadow Briana during ACC today, but I don't feel well so I really don't want to.  Sueno begins rehearsals on Tuesday!
Oh, I saw Narnia last night.  I liked it lots.  I think they did a really great job with Aslan.  Now, I know we all know that Aslanis Jesus and the White Witch is Satan, but did you know:
-Father Christmas = Galadriel?
-Dude with the White Witch all the time (Ginarrbrik) = hobbit scale double?  No, really though.
I'm not sure how I felt about this movie being rated PG.   I mean, I guess it's okay for kids to watch, although if *I* were a kid I'd be traumatized.  I mean, when they make it so clear that the bad guys are being killed and having their faces bitten off, it seems a little weird that they try and pretend it's okay for kids to see because they don't show blood and their swords stay shiny and clean to the last moment.  And of course, I can't help but compare how the movie was done to LOTR, and think that although LOTR is DEFINITELY not suitable for kiddies, it was somehow more okay for me to see innocent little hobbits kill orcs in self-defense than it was for me to see innocent teeangers kill things-that-look-like-orcs in self-defense.  Why?  Well, LOTR was scarier and therefore the stakes were heightened and I felt that my darling little hobittses needed to kill in order to survive.  Perhaps I felt in this case that really Aslan coulda kicked bad-guy butt without them and all good-guy deaths were reversible anyway so perhaps the kiddies shoulda kinda not...killed things.  Umm, yeah.  Also,
Dear C.S. Lewis,
Teenage boys should not be able to ride unicorns.  Do you know nothing?!  And wolves aren't so bad; it wasn't very nice of you to give them such a bad rep.  Finally, I'm a little disturbed that the kids grew up in Narnia without remembering home or their parents.  If Narnia is a good place, why does it erase their memories of people they love?  Sigh.  I miss Frodo.
Frodo lives.

This was dumb.  Oh well.  An update:

-Madison with de Guys was awesome.  I had a wonderful time.

-Sueno is now in prep.  We started today.. I'm not sure how that will be yet, since there's 4 of us on it.  And everyone is really good.  So will there really be any responsibility for me?  We shall see.  But all the acting interns are ensemble in it, and I'm SMing the U/S run of the show, so I'll be glad to finally do another show with other interns again.  Rehearsal starts Tuesday.

-Saw Pride & Prejudice.  Pretty good.

-No new LOST until January.  Are you KIDDING me, people?!

-I'm not gonna use Yahoo photos as my online album anymore.  I mean, all the old pictures will still be there, but any new ones I take I will post on Flickr.

-Had plenty of the white, I'm dreaming of a Hawaiian Christmas.

-Gotta start looking into jobs again for life after the internship.  Here's what I know: I will be home this summer.  I might come back to Milwaukee in the Fall.  We'll see how things pan out.  Until they DO pan out...gotta do a search and submit some resumes.

-I got to meet and hold Kelly's baby.  I had never met non-pregnant Kelly before, and I had also never seen the baby NOT inside her belly.  It was rather strange to have tangible evidence that there was in fact a baby in Kelly all during Flea.  Babies are interesting.  They make funny faces when they're hungry, and like looking at lights.

-It's 6 degrees outside.

-Other stuff...  I just don't know.

Need a new diet?

After numerous rounds of "We don't even know if Osama is still
alive," Osama himself decided to send George Bush a letter in his
own handwriting to let him know he was still in the game.

Bush opened the letter and it appeared to contain a coded message:
370HSSV-0773H

Bush was baffled, so he e-mailed it to Condi Rice. Condi and her
aides had no clue either, so they sent it to the FBI. No one could
solve it so it went to the CIA, then to the NSA.
With no clue as to its meaning, they eventually asked Britain's MI-6
for help. MI-6 cabled the White House:


"Tell the president he's holding the message upside down."

short but sweet

Happy Thanksgiving...soon, anyway.

If you've never been to Snopes.com, I recommend that you visit it before forwarding on any more e-mails.  Plus, it can be very amusing.

A Christmas Carol is making my life tiring at the moment, but the Rep's production of it is truly good.  It brought tears to me eyes, it did.
