paint it green

off to school to prepare the stage for the coming school year, in this case I think a coat of dark green semigloss just to get us going. planning to do THE LARAMIE PROJECT as the fall play for the high school and am looking for ways to make our relatively large box proscenium stage seem more intimate and connected with the audience. probably will extend the apron out over the audience about six feet, as I'm looking for a more 'in your face' connection with the audience.

almost 8:20, approaching my favorite time

...of day.
when I was little, I decided that twenty past eight was my favorite time. Ever since, I think about those whom I love at that time--- often twice a day, in the a.m. and in the p.m. I like the way the hands look on the clock face. And I don't care whether many of those I love are in vastly different time zones. All friends. All relative.

out where I belong

last week of freedom

setting up my first-ever blog
savoring this gorgeous mid-August weather in the last full week of vacation before the new school year.
I've been a drama teacher for 32 years already and it's always exciting to get started again.
Meanwhile, my honey (who is also my spouse) is in the other room proof-reading the final draft of his monumental latest work, NOSFERATU, an opera in three acts that will see its true world premiere at two American opera houses this fall.

Now to explore the world of blogs....
