it's the final countdown.

Hello readers.

I meant to write more, I really did.

It's been a crazy, fantastic ride, and we open tomorrow.

One day I'll write it all down and make a one woman show out of it.

Until then, I hope I'll see you at the show.

I love you all, everything.

Let the Good Times Roll.

My friend Jeremy Beiler said "I saw some good press about you." And this is what he was talking about.

Holy Mackeral!

She's crafty -- she's just my type.

I like this story, because it uses the term "genius bear."

She's got a ticket to ride.

Tickets are on sale!

Buy them on the interweb!

You know you're coming. So why not get your ticket now, so I know, too?

C'mon. Do it!

Got to get you into my life

This is a guy I'd like to meet. He also likes to find and take pictures of cool stuff that other people don't see. Like, for example, the Machpelah Cemetery in Queens, where Harry Houdini is buried and an abandoned train station in Inwood. His pictures are beautiful and make me want to tromp around New York, like I used to tromp around the woods near my house -- with a backpack, a sandwich and a book.

Go here for a little nerdy vacation.

No Sleep Till Brooklyn.

Well, that was a very difficult week.

Thanks everyone.

I found out that the show is definitely true, though. Optimism is a choice, not an inherent personality trait. But if you do choose to be optimistic, not only will it more than likely come true the way you hope it will, but you will also feel happier in the meantime.

(I know, I know. I just gave away the ending. But I just can't imagine that anyone is actually reading this.)

The big opening night is in exactly four weeks! That seems like no time at all! That seems like acres of time!

This is the good part, too. Oh, good. Good, good, good.

However, I miss my friends and family, and hope I see them again soon.

Sometimes you can't make it on your own.

You know, at this time, I'd like to use this space to give a shout-out to the cast of Our Town.

That's right, you two people who follow my blog, to the cast of Our Town.

There's this group of people that I hang out with almost every night, and almost all weekend, and they are the nicest, smartest, most talented, funniest, most generous and all around bestest people that I've known and I feel so lucky to be in their midst.

It is hard to have two jobs and work all the time and try to squeeze creating and rehearsing your one person show in there somewhere, and these people are unrelenting in their helpfulness. They give me snacks, and hugs, and kind words, and they pick me up when I'm down, and I cannot think of a better way to spend my time, but in their company.

Thank you, cast and crew of Our Town.

Good show, all.
