the first (of many?)

So I have now started a total of 3 websites/blogs with my name on them. Have I kept them up? nope. But I think it is high time that I commit to something fully in life. Maybe this is it? Nothing else seems to be sticking.

A little about moi: I'm a Cali girl that has stuck herself in Jersey/NYC for the past 7+ years. Have I converted? nope. Still a Cali girl. Please note the lack of fake boobs and blonde hair. They are real and the darker my hair is, the lighter my skin looks. Maybe it's a Snow White complex. Actually, a cashier at Lowe's in Mission Valley/San Diego asked me if I worked at Disneyland AS Snow White. I thought that was a pretty sweet compliment.

I work in the theater biz. I technically have all of my life when I first stepped on stage as a little dancing sailor in the dance routine "Bell Bottom Trousers" at the Prado in Balboa Park. Now, I've handled the press and marketing for some of my favorite (and I'm sure, yours too, heh) Broadway musicals. I've worked with an escaped convicted with a hefty tattoo on his chest, a recluse who likes music and has really bad skin problems, cowmen & farmers, beautiful people in Firenze, a delicate soul with sharp things on his fingers, a flower girl who wants to own a flower shop, and four dudes who came from the wrong side of the Jersey tracks.

More loves: bulldogs, spring, Hudson jeans, flip flops, the smell of rain on pavement, Beck, Moby, REM, Swiffer Dusters, Seventh Generation products, statues of Buddha, Peonies, the Pacific Ocean, my pillow, CYT, fauxhawks, tattoo arm sleeves (though I don't have one), Rock Band, hugs, sincerity, hearts on sleeves, gluten free food, asian female lit, the smell of euclyptus & lemon trees, mom's sugar cookies, Christmas time with the family & q-tips.

So here's to a real attempt to chronicle life, love, whatever tickles my fancy. We are just launching into the craziest week of the year - Theater League Conference week. Shows, meetings, bitching & moaning, alcohol, food, more shows, swag, more alcohol, Town Hall drama, alcohol, B'way star appearances, more alcohol and more alcohol. Please note that I don't drink more than a glass of wine at one sitting AND I have obstained from alcohol for about 2 months now.

On the show docket: God of Carnage, Rock of Ages, Exit the King and (maybe) Toxic Avenger. I'm trying to sneak Next to Normal in there too.

Here we go...
