Minor Activity
At some point, a person needs to learn to say "no, thank you", even to projects which seem fascinating and educational. I have recently had to turn down two projects which were very interesting to me.
Don't worry! I am thrilled to have done so because I am TOO BUSY!
The Stupid Economy by Robert Lynn is gaining popularity. A law school is interested in bringing it to their campus (I haven't even compiled all of the emails I'm working on for getting the word out that it is available for hire), we just booked a party of 25 for a night the theatre is generally dark, the local accommodations owners are spreading the word, and we have professional level theatre-things happening thanks to Dan Balocca - Technical Director extraordinaire!
My television show, Culture Cravers, is well liked by the people who matter at the cable company and so I need to kick into overtime to get more material to them. Now that Dubuque is growing exponentially in the arts, this is not as hard or daunting a task as it used to be, thank God! Up until recently I was writing, filming, producing, editing, etc..all alone. Now, I have the help of some great production crew! Life gets easier if you keep at it, right?
Lina and Mitch have amazing imaginations and if I think for one second that I can work from home I can forget that! Who can work when Mitch is doing the most incredible, uncanny rendition of a T-Rex or Velociraptor ever or Lina's belting voice singing any Lady GaGa song? Not me.
Fingers crossed, I am currently awaiting acceptance into Loras College. More later...

Exhausted but Ecstatic
These months have been crazy!
An idea of my day: Shoot, research (and, in some cases, stalk new celebritie), write, record, voice over, edit Culture Cravers; my television show featuring the arts, run on my lunch break, dinner with the children, perform The Stupid Economy, meet and greet with the audience, sleep (if that's what you can call it; last night I dreamt I was postponing my death by talking the grim reaper out of it while drinking and smoking.)
Last week, all of these things were true plus I ran around organizing and wining and dining our newest guests to Dubuque. In attendance, the every fabulous Jill Savarese of MouseTrap Films Distribution and Film Festival Flix, Philipp J. Pamer, director and writer of The Holy Land of Tyrol, and Michael Boatman; Actor (Spin City, Anger Management, China Beach, Arli$$), Author, and new personal fave!
Tonight, I shoot a YouTube video (starring yours truly) for a client who views me as a spokes model...I write , research, shoot, and edit that bad boy, too.
Literally, I've aged about 20 years in the last couple of days. I hope the wisdom of age comes with it!
