In January, I was doing Blue Door Theatre (BDT) stuff every weekend and moving my mom to Colville in the snow. I hired a teenager (son of a friend) to help me with the furniture and stuff, and we loaded her entire retirement home room into a U-Haul. We had to wheel a cart pile higher than is wise down long hallways past people in walkers and ( Read more... )

I auditioned for Assassins the musical at Civic yesterday. . .I got a callback this evening. It has been my first musical audition, and my second audition at Civic. . .only my fourth audition for a full production (not readers' theatre). I feel like I'm on the edge of a cliff, about to dive 100 feet into the sea. And I learned how to swim last ( Read more... )

Soooo, it's been awhile since I posted. Here's my LJ version of my recent life: My play (A. Christie's Mousetrap) went very well. About a month later, I continue to have random people I don't know come up and tell me I was fabulous. . .I may get a swelled head. I got pretty bad postproduction depression for about a week, partly because the ( Read more... )

This Saturday I'm on a team competing in Cage Match at the Blue Door Theatre (815 W. Garland) starting at 9 p.m. We four "Imaginary Friends" (me, Harvest, Jenn and Caleb) will try to wrest the title from the defending champs by any means of improv available. Be there, people. 25 minutes per team to rock your socks off. Then you vote. $5 cheap. ( Read more... )

Some of you already know about the crazy hike this weekend, so you can skim the description. The Scalawag hike: 48 miles in 24 hours with 35 lbs (in a pack). Through the Colville National Forest which is much, much, much hillier than any area of Spokane I've seen ( Read more... )

I ran most of Bloomsday yesterday, walking about 30% (mostly at the end). Now I feel old and sore. Why do I run only once per year? Well, at least this year my boss didn't have any jobs on deadline, so I took the 'day after' off work. Next year I'll train. . . really. . .I'm not just saying that this time. Stop giving me that look.
