How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic? My post title is taken from the Cindi Lauper song, “Money Changes Everything.” Although, as we noted during the pandemic, some people refused to change, or even acknowledge there was such a thing. I’m amazed that such ignorance did not lead toContinue reading “Covid Changes Everything!”

Morning Rituals
What are your morning rituals? What does the first hour of your day look like? After stripping down and climbing out on the roof to do a dance to honor the Cosmic Mother, I… Wait, that’s not me! My morning “rituals,” if you can call them that, are pretty mundane. Shower and dress, and getContinue reading “Morning Rituals”
“Very Unique”
Which aspects do you think makes a person unique? As an undergradI had a writing professor who criticized a friend of mine’s use of the phrase “very unique.” This was incorrect, he said, because “Unique has no degree.” Something or someone is either unique or it’’s not. I guess it’s the same as being “aContinue reading ““Very Unique””
You Name It!
If you could have something named after you, what would it be? Sometimes I think naming things after people is a little strange. I get that it’s a way of remembering people, usually donors, but sometimes it seems to get out of hand. For example, sitting in the front pew of the Immaculate Misconception ofContinue reading “You Name It!”
What Makes Me Laugh
What makes you laugh? I’m working on a series of videos talking about hints for acting, directing, and other areas of theatre. One of the videos, strictly or entertainment, is called “The Three Faces of Steve,” which shows what to watch for if you are watching me watching a show. But—what makes me laugh? EvenContinue reading “What Makes Me Laugh”
When I GrowUp…
When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up? Today’s prompt asks about my career aspirations at age 5. To be honest, I have few recollections about being 5, much less what I desired for a career. So I’ll take a cue from politicians who want to answer a differentContinue reading “When I GrowUp…”
Education IS Important
What’s something most people don’t understand? Free and public education seems to not only be taken for granted lately, but is also under attack. In our social media/misinformation-filled world, people seem to have forgotten how important education is. Occasionally I’ll get a friend request on Facebook. When I look at their profile, I see theyContinue reading “Education IS Important”
Digitize Me!
How has technology changed your job? I’m retired now, but technology continues to play a large part in what I do. I started using technology with HyperCard back in the 1990s. I used it to project my class notes on a screen. This was great because my handwriting has been on a long decline sinceContinue reading “Digitize Me!”
No, Nyet, Nein!
How often do you say “no” to things that would interfere with your goals? I’d like to say I often say no to things that interfere with my goals. However, I must say that I often decide to do things that I think fit in with my goals, and they then turn out to beContinue reading “No, Nyet, Nein!”
Wanted: Super Power X
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had? If could have any super power, what would it be? I have had dreams in which I flew and that seemed pretty cool. I considered reading other people’s minds might be fun, but I’ve seen some films that feature that and it oftenContinue reading “Wanted: Super Power X”
