Life has certainly changed since last I wrote. After working with Curious George Live for fifteen months I have managed to take the next big step in my life/career... I now live in New York City! I moved in in the midst of the blizzard the day after Christmas (or as some say, "NYC Snowpocalypse 2010"), which was quite the adventure in itself. These past few weeks have been much like living on tour since I was only able to bring what I could carry with me in one suitcase and two backpacks... including my bed!*
In addition to the big move, life has also taken a few turns...
There was a very short-lived bout of unemployment after a contract fell through which would have taken me to Spain with Sesame Street Live, but I am proud to say that the reason I had to move in during the blizzard is because I am enjoying the life of being an employed actor once again!
This new job is another tour called Virtually Me - a show that addresses the epidemic of cyber-bullying and its effects on kids and teens. Our tour takes us up and down the east coast from Vermont to Florida as we drive (yes, WE drive) our oversized van to schools and theatres everywhere inbetween.
Another major life change came in the form of distance taking it's toll on my relationship with Star. She and I both had very specific dreams about what and where our lives were headed and things suddenly became very clear... and that sucked. Things did not end well and there was much left unsaid... and that sucked even more. I miss her. There I said it.
On a lighter note, check this out!
(I promise I'll write more in the next few days)
*Sadly, I must admit that I did not inherit Mary Poppins' magical bag, nor did Mr. Weasley lend me an enchanted bag to lug copious amounts of furniture and the like... I have been sleeping "comfortably" on an air mattress for the past few weeks. Thank goodness my roommate finally moved in last week - now it looks like a real apartment instead of the dwellings of a squatter!
