Happy Friday ya’ll!

It’s going to be a grand one, and an even better weekend. I am busy, but by my own hand. All social and it includes friends and family and laughter and a new bed and new friends and stringing lights on a creek bank!

What’s on your plate?

Went to the theatre last night. The script is a “world premier” one that apparently was a winner at this theatre’s original script competition. Oh my, there was some editing needed. But a new friend of mine was in it and she looked STUNNING. My soul for those red shoes she wore in the first scene. Anyway, my friend and I were kind of commenting about a bit on stage, and out of nowhere the lead SAYS HER NAME. in the context of something like this, “while i was caught french kissing Rhoda behind the bleachers” and we both stopped and our eyes bugged out, and I mouthed, “are you fucking kidding me? did he just say your name?” and people know her because she is the A.D. of another theatre here and it was an almost sold out audience of about 90-100 people and I just ducked my head into my lap and started to laugh.

and then she snorted.
loudly.

that laugh.
that laugh where I’m choking all of the sound back but am sobbing uncontrollable. (some of you have seen this once or twice. I’m just sayin’)

OH my god. It was worth sitting through that thing for that moment!

and isn’t that what life is about? those moments that take you by surprise, and outshine all of the murky muck and make you laugh until you snort. or cry. or both? it’s affirming. A little gift from the Universe that says, “you’re doing things right. here’s a snack.”

Kizz gave us all a nice little snack over on 117 Hudson. Go look and read, please please read the Ryan Reynolds post. It’s worth the time. That guy is FUN-Knee.

I hope you get lots of snacks today.

Here’s a few for my own self…
