So. I am not sure what, exactly, my room does while I’m gone, but sometimes when I get home it’s pretty messy. I will have to look into that. Tonight a friend invited me to a drawing party. I very excitedly arrived, couldn’t find him, and then very shyly decided to step outside and wait [...]

I mentioned to my friend Lindsay just last week that some of the best cupcakes in the world are in Georgetown. I mentioned that they are even worth a road trip. “Let’s do it!” she said, and she made good her word today. Because, you know, a lot of people talk about things and then [...]

One time I overheard my mom trying to use that old expression, “running around like a chicken with its head cut off.” And I know. It’s not the most poetic of our American idioms. But my mom failed to mention the chicken, and so she simply told someone that she was “running around with HER [...]

Irritating is when you get home from your eighth show of the week and the most creative thing you can think to do in terms of resting is laying in your freshly made bed complete with newly changed linens, thanks to the lovely maids at your hotel. You lay down for maybe a half hour [...]
a part of the journey

On Tuesday, after having had more than a week off from the show and if I were to be totally honest, dealing with ribs that hadn’t healed yet, I was feeling…wonky. Weird in a leotard all over again. Trying to find my center. Wondering where the heck it was that I spotted when I did [...]
