Evacuation Vest


1. I had two shows in one week. Aunt Pat, Uncle Gene, Uncle JOe, Jamie, and Erin came to my RECESS show! We had a blast, the show went great. We tried a new form, played with music a little bit. It was fun and it was our coaches last show with us, so we celebrated for sure. Danielle and Rose from work came too. What dolls. And we also went out after the show, we hit a bar in boystown, and only in boystown would Project Runway be playing on every screen in the bar rather than a sports game.
2. On tuesday, I had my level 4 graduation show at iO which was probably one of my favorite performances. Our team was perfect, everyone did what they were supposed to do, and trusted each other on stage. I had told the class about the baby vest in the nursery, and they decided to name our team Evacuation Vest in honor of the emergency baby saving device. And, yes, we went out and drank afterward, had dollar tacos and celebrated. We are almost done with the whole program. Where did the year go? By the way, if you happen to be in the Chicagoland area in April- July, my Second City and iO graduation shows will run all summer long. Yippee!3. After the show on Tuesday, after the first round of 'going out times' at iO, I met up with Mary Beth at Corcorans, then went back to Second City in the middle of the night to check on the kids painting the mainstage theatre. We walked in on sexy poses by the men and Megan Powers hopped on 1 liter of Jolt cola, the kid was trippin'! I miss those peeps. Oh what fun.
4. Thats right, a fourth addition, breaking the tradition. I worked 12 hours of overtime this week, and I regret nothing. I have really started to enjoy work and the people I work with and the things i do. I mean come on, I work with babies and mommies. Most of the time its wonderful, and the rest of the time i ts great material for a sketch later. And besides, my paycheck is going to be fat this week. Woohoo, sign me up for another 12 hours.

check out my prison tatts... just kidding

1. I went with Mary Beth and her dad to a tattoo parlor and the only one that got a tattoo was Mary Beth's dad. He has wanted one for twenty years. Its of a zipper over his appendix scar. There is a bet waged as to when his wife will find out he has a tattoo.
2. Brandon made Summer Welcome, which to all that now about Mizzou, is a really big deal. Iam so proud of him. Over 120 interviewed for the position and 36 were chosen, GO Brando!
3. I've had four days off in a row and i did nothing.... It was awesome.
