Describe the last difficult “goodbye” you said. For most of the people I’ve said “goodbye” to over the years, it’s really been more of a “see you later.” We mostly still keep in touch, however sporadically, and I’ve lost only a few whom I’ve really cared about. But California, now… Well. That’s different. I leftContinue reading “I Left My Heart…”

Past (Projects) Come Back to Haunt Us
I’m trying to clean up my desk and filing cabinet in the hopes of making enough space to bring more things from my storage unit and, if there are any files to keep, I will have a place for them. In the meantime I’m finding a lot to recycle, but am also discovering some surprisesContinue reading “Past (Projects) Come Back to Haunt Us”
Margaret? It’s Me, God
If you could be someone else for a day, who would you be, and why? If I could be someone else for a day, I’d choose to be God. And of course, I mean an omnipotent and all-powerful one. Or One. Why? Because in this age when it seems that life is out of controlContinue reading “Margaret? It’s Me, God”
Wash Day!
For some reason, I recently recalled my mother’s washing day routine. Maybe I was musing on the changes in laundry technology; I’m not sure. But her machine was definitely from the mid-20th century. It was a so-called wringer washer. I looked for a photo on the web, and had never before realized how much someContinue reading “Wash Day!”
“Unprecedented”
If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? Here’s a glimpse into part of my daily routine: I often check the daily prompt before getting into the shower, to let my unconscious mind cogitate on the topic until I get to open my iPad and begin typing.Continue reading ““Unprecedented””
Come Play With Us!
What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months? In an interview for a newspaper article on my new theatre organizations, StoryZ, I suggested that one of the main challenges going forward was getting actors to join in the cause. My interactions with people at Chamber of Commerce events have nettedContinue reading “Come Play With Us!”
Too Shy, Too Shy…
What advice would you give to your teenage self? My title of course references the song by Kajagoogoo. Now, if I gave advice to my teenage self, would he listen? There’s a famous quote by Goethe who suggests that young people never listen to their elders and that they have to discover things on theirContinue reading “Too Shy, Too Shy…”
Enter Tavern, Order Drink
What is your favorite drink? For the question, “What is my favorite drink?” I of course can’t just supply as easy answer. Naturally it depends on the context. If there’s pizza, there should be beer. Oddly enough, I used to hate IPAs, but a little while ago, I tried one, and really enjoyed it. IContinue reading “Enter Tavern, Order Drink”
Ahhh, Look At All My Fav’rite People
Who are your favorite people to be around? As a life-long introvert who only recently has said, “Screw it, life’s too short, and who cares what people think?” (as I venture into the local social scene to raise awareness of my non-profit theatre company), I would say that the list of favorite people to beContinue reading “Ahhh, Look At All My Fav’rite People”
Shooooooesahhh!
Tell us about your favorite pair of shoes, and where they’ve taken you. My title refers to the character of Jen on the show The IT Crowd where she tries to get her not-very-observant tech support co-workers to notice her new toe-mangling heels. As for my shoes, I frequently observe to myself, when looking inContinue reading “Shooooooesahhh!”
