Note: Gifs are from Original Broadway Cast version in New York. 1. Why are my hands shaking? I’m not performing. 2. I’m SO FUCKING EXCITED. 3. What if one of them has a sub-par voice? I’ve been spoiled by the original Broadway cast recording. 4. Wonder if they’ll have a female Burr or Hamilton ever…Continue reading “In the Room Where It Happened OR 59 thoughts I had while seeing Hamilton on stage in Chicago”

31: The Year of Happiness (or something like that)
If you’ve read this blog…ever…you know that me and happiness go back and forth. I continuously try for it and have gotten so much closer in the past few years in so many ways. So, for a while, people kept telling me “You need to read this book, the Happiness Project.” Never one to shyContinue reading “31: The Year of Happiness (or something like that)”
Is it considered a sabbatical if you don’t go anywhere?
Guess what I haven’t done much of this month? Yeah…if you came back after the limited amount of excitement provided after March’s blogapalooza, you must really love me. And I love you, too. It wasn’t intentional, originally. Granted my brain had just about dried up when it came to new and exciting things to shareContinue reading “Is it considered a sabbatical if you don’t go anywhere?”
More smiley things
There have been a couple of weeks in the past month that have tested my ability to handle my anxiety. Which, looking back, was not that big of a deal, but in the midst of it, I’d never have understood. Better now – very much so. And the things in this blog may have hadContinue reading “More smiley things”
Twenty-feeeive
Today is the birthday of my little sister, Rachel. She is a quarter of a century old. And cute. And by now, you know the drill. She’s family, it’s a birthday, I like lists. Here is a list, filled with some of the things I like about her. 1. She knows what I’ll say beforeContinue reading “Twenty-feeeive”
Miss you
As you know, on this blog in 2012, we’ve started honoring some of my family members (when I’m a professional blogger I’ll branch out to friends as well) on their birthdays with a photo and a list I make about them. In March, there are two birthdays that are tough. They are the birthdays ofContinue reading “Miss you”
#firstworldproblems
Remember how I talked about First World Problems? I thought it’d be funny to keep a log of the ones I was “suffering from” in the past couple weeks. They’re all really serious things to worry about, you guys. I’m way behind on all my shows. I have no time to catch up on theContinue reading “#firstworldproblems”
It’s only natural that this is the next step
I like lists. And organization. And generally orderly things. It makes for a clean room but damn if it isn’t annoying when I have to get up out of bed to push my desk chair in because it’s bothering me for no other reason than it’s askew. Yeah, I’m that weirdo. Guys are just liningContinue reading “It’s only natural that this is the next step”
Swarles Barkley
Today is my soon-to-be brother-in-law’s birthday. Whoa. That’s weird to say. I haven’t wrote a blog about him before, but since they’re getting married now and he’s gonna be around more, I guess I should start. Just kidding, he’s been around for 10 years already and this wedding thing is really just a formality toContinue reading “Swarles Barkley”
Notes on a meatless existence
• A lot of restaurants make up for their lack of a vegetarian option by offering a “veggie sandwich.” Veggie means no meat, of course, but what they lack in dead animal they make up for with cheese. No bueno. • Hamburgers smell better than they ever have when you’ve told yourself you can noContinue reading “Notes on a meatless existence”
