Today I am grateful for:
-seeing a double feature with Roomie and her friends. We saw Gravity and Don Jon. I thought they were both okay, but nothing to cry home about. I'm glad I saw them, but I wouldn't see them again.
-Heather Myer kicking ass and taking names. Lauren lost her voice and called Heather (her understudy for one weekend more than a month ago) to see if she could go in for her for our second show of the night. She happened to be available and she came in and totally nailed it. I mean flat out nailed it. If you didn't know you would have never guessed that she had only 2 hours to prepare. She didn't do the show for over a month and we ran through some lines and songs between shows and then wham, bam, thank you ma'am she knocked it out of the park! I'm so impressed and in awe of her. BOOM!
-getting a text from Nick Aase! I miss that guy. I'll never forget the message he sent me after they told me I got in saying that I was now part of the family. Box changed my life. I owe box itself and all the people in it so much. They made me a better person and gave me a place to belong and feel safe amongst everything else that was new and frightening. I miss box.
-going out after the show for a little post show bonding.
-being present. I'm present that I'm still struggling. It comes and goes, which is better than it being constant, but it's still here.
-laughter. Thank goodness for laughter and the healing powers that it has.
-the basics
-as always, my friends.
