Living Under a Rock

You may have noticed my long absence from this blog, but there is a very easy explination -- I've been living under a rock.

I just finished up my last mainstage at Baylor, The Seagull.  This turned out to be one of the most difficult shows I've done, taking away all of my time and energy, and yet it was invaluable and enjoyable.  Happily, family from two different cities were able to come and see it.  During the run of the show I had my birthday, immediately preceded by one of my good friend's birthday.  We ended up at Applebee's two nights in a row, but with great company and free ice cream.  It was a good weekend of celebration with the two birthdays and the show.

The Seagull marked the last of my mainstages at Baylor.  My time has been opened up greatly and I've been recovering and playing as much as possible.  Softball season started the week after the show ended.  Our girls have been doing pretty well, but unfortunately haven't been challenged too much yet.  I've been playing tennis with a friend at least once a week, although we're hoping to make it happen more often.  We're trying out new restaurants and frequenting the dollar theatre (half price tuesdays!), doing our best to fill the time without a mainstage.  So far we've met with pretty good success, possibly because there have been at least eight birthdays to consider, but possibly because we're all so relieved to be out from under the rock.
