I wonder how many of these newsletters start with me saying that I do not want to write this newsletter.

Not to worry! I have a #PalCrushMonday coming up and I always return from one of those feeling refreshed.

The format:

  • What I’m crushing (accomplishing, achieving, attaining, fulfilling, something that I am being successful at.)

  • What is crushing me (see definition 3b, something that is bringing me down.)

  • What I’m crushing on (admiring, adoring, appreciating, cherishing, favoriting, etc.)

I am playing my cello for a show and it is hard and scary and I am feeling overwhelmed but excited for the challenge. I am proud of myself for the effort I have put in and will continue to put in.

I am TIRED but that’s probably because Peter and the Starcatcher closed last night and we had to do strike and I got home late late late.

I go to Roosevelt Coffee House on a near daily basis now that I work downtown. It rocks.

In case you missed it, one of the characters I played in the show was an enormous mermaid. All the other fish wanted to be mermaids, but this fish wanted to be THE BIGGEST MERMAID WHO KNOWS EVERYTHING.

OMNIPOTENT MERMAID

Buh-bye!
