What a send off

Well, I just had quite the 3 hour screen test. Well, OK, half of that was screen test (with the very talented idiotsynchronicity as my scene partner - thank you!!) and the other half doing some pre-vis stuff for the production team. As ever, once I was working I could not have been happier. But before and after? The Nerves. Behaviorally under control, but in my private brain? ; )

And now? The send off for what?

I am off to AFRICA! See you all next month. When I am home for 2.5 weeks before I head to the old home stomping grounds back east (north and south this trip, I do believe).

Photos! Theater/film! Horses! I'm keeping it all going. : )

Yes, riding has been AMAZING lately. We blew the clinic teacher's mind the other day. Woot.

And Ashland was great, too.

Cabaret

I had the good fortune to be able to take my mother to the tech run of cabaret while she was in town. We all enjoyed it greatly. Lots of yummy period details, bravo to the dance captain, that Storm can sure sing, the old couple really delivers the message, and Wade McCollum was uniquely, perfectly wonderful... and having way too much fun. If you are not the sort offended by BIG, get out there and eat it up with a spoon. Well, I guess if sexy isn't your bag either....

No 24 Hour Play Festival for me

FYI - I just had to cancel my participation in this weekend's 24 hour play festival. You should go any way.
