Memes
I've been tagged 3 or 4 times for "25 Random Things." The instructions say that the sender wants to know more about me. I'm I old fashioned for thinking that if they really wanted to know something they would ask me, not wait to forward a meme? Is it selfish to think that there are other things I need to focus on at this point in my life such as ( Read more... ) -
Boston
I met up with P. this evening. Well, actually, he met me at the hotel where I am staying. We went to an Irish Pub for dinner. We both had really good stuffed chicken with butternut squash ravioli and spinach and even drank the same beer. I thought he would be a wine person, but he definitely seems to enjoy fine beer. We had good conversation, ( Read more... ) -
Long time no see
I'm making plans to have dinner during a road trip this weekend with an old friend from high school. I haven't seen since our reunion two years ago, and that was only the second time since graduation that we have met up.

I felt empowered today when I read marriage or civil union on state tax forms. In the future I won't have to label myself single if I were to enter a committed relationship. -
Decisions..decisions....
Now that Oklahoma is closing tonight I am free on Tuesday nights. I am debating whether I should attend my favorite class at the local yoga studio or volunteer with the Connecticut Gay Men's Chorus. It seems to be a matter of personal development versus social development. Seeing that all my friends in this state are married or coupled, the only ( Read more... ) -
Job Search
During the past few weeks, when my mind wasn't occupied with set building, I became discouraged with my job search. I thought that even getting to this would be progress.

After talking with the lighting designer whose day job is audio/visual consultant, I have decided to refocus my job search on theatre consultants, which there are few of ( Read more... ) -
Overheard at rehersal
The orchestra pit floor is at a level between the basement floor and the house floor. Tonight after I put a railing on a stair unit leading up to the pit floor, it needed to be leveled. As I was working on it during a rehearsal of the dream ballet I heard someone say, "There's some construction going on down there." The music director responded ( Read more... )
