I've got a great hubby, a beautiful son and a nice home. Theatre, travel and Cheap Trick are my favorite passtimes. I consider myself one lucky SOB (DOB?!) to get to partake of those things as often as I do.
I also have a one woman show about my struggle with and recovery from Bulimia called Hand to Mouth. I've performed at schools and universities across the US including Penn State, Emory and Colgate. You can check out the show's website here. Major updates to that (hopefully!) coming soon!
Your Language Arts Grade: 100%
Way to go! You know not to trust the MS Grammar Check and you know "no" from "know." Now, go forth and spread the good word (or at least, the proper use of apostrophes).
However, if you're a band or individual looking to boost your friends' numbers - please don't bother. Or at the very least drop me a line & tell me why you want an add. M'kay?
Lisa, sorry you are feeling bad :( and I would come out tom. and support your blood drive efforts at TomCat, but I can't give blood, literally ... the blood itself is "good" but I've tried to donate several times and they suggested I give it up ... my blood runs out really slow .. for whatever reason -- go figure! I hope Les Mis rehearsals are going well for you, can't wait to hear all the leads sing :-) Char
Lisa... It was so good to see you today! Thanks for the encouragement to Abi... she had a blast singing! Her song she wrote Upside Down is of course her fav!!!!
She is so excited to be in Les Mis... she was wanting rehearsals to start NOW.... she is so funny! She has been in a play since last November and has a little lull here and is wanting to be busier!! Ha... I am thinking she is busy but not enough for her!!
Hope you had a good anniversary!! Your little boy is so cute... I know you have such fun with him!
