Why is using a parking garage so confusing to so many people? The one that I need to access for rehearsals has multiple entrances, but most folks use the entrances off San Pedro. There are two entrances there – side by side. So why does everybody line up for one of the entrances and ignore…
Famous pollsters Gallup need to get the fuck over themselves. Seriously. In the first two weeks of November they conducted their Health and Healthcare survey. The had responses from 1,015 random adults living in all 50 states and Washington DC. The results were that, in the past decade, there has been a marked increase in…
For the longest time I could not care less about shoes. For many years, this drove my poor mother to distraction. I’d glom onto one pair of comfortable shoes and that is what I wore. I’d wear those shoes until they were just a bit of thread and leather. One reason may be because growing…
As you may (or may not) know, I work from home as a legal word processor. My background is going on over 40 years of experience as a legal secretary/paralegal; and I can type fast – but word processing lets me work from home. So I have an attorney send me a document for State…
Write down your blocking / choreography. Please. You would think this is just common sense. But some people just think they’ll remember or “get it”, and in my experience, that just isn’t the case.

It is certainly up to the individual, but I get so (emotionally) tired of seeing photos of fat people trying to look thin. It makes me sad. I am sad that you don’t love your round fat face the way I love seeing it. I am sad that you only feel beautiful when trying to…
When I was a wee one (yes, I was actually wee – once – a very long time ago), my folks would bundle me in a snow suit and we’d go ice skating. My first skates were double bladed and I loved skating. Nobody told me that I would one day have to forsake my…
Last night, I had the fortuitous opportunity to witness something I don’t believe I have ever seen before. Murphy has had the sneezes lately. (I think he has a little cold – no eye or nose discharge – just a few sneezes and sleeping more than usual.) I was going to bed, and Murphy jumped…
That is, indeed, the question. Right now, I am up to my tits in rehearsals for A New Brain. (This show is so wonderful and the music is so fucking difficult – for the singers – not for the audience – y’all get to just sit back and enjoy!) This weekend there is an audition…
