a couple of things

These video clips of a Fabulous Entourage interview kind of make me hate myself (do I really talk like that? Do I really have a hand gesture for every word I say?) but it seems like the kind of thing someone would post on their blog if they had a blog. And I do. So here you go. Here's me talking about my Midwestern guilt complex:

You can watch like 20 more of these video clips (don't worry I don't talk in most of them) at www.uncensoredinterview.com. Kind of weird. But it does make you want to come over and hang out in my backyard right?

Tell me What you Want to Hear

You guys, now that I'm moving back to New York (official return date is Sunday February 3rd!) there's no reason to really keep this blog anymore. That is unless ya'll want to hear stories about going on musical theater auditions and playing in a rock band and living in Brooklyn. That might be interesting to someone. I guess I could just try and write witty, pithy stories about funny things that happen to me and all the precious life lessons that I learn as I go through my days. Hmmm. That sounds exactly like the kind of blog I would never read. How about reviews of things? Restaurants? Music? Musicals? Celebrity gossip? Whitman alumni gossip? Musical theater audition gossip? Cute guys on the L-train sightings? Hmm, I just don't know. Maybe I'll start writing songs and post them in unfinished form on here and then people can write in and tell me what they think of them. That puts a lot of pressure on you guys though. Well, I won't make any major decisions yet, but I'm taking suggestions. Tell me what you want to hear and I'll give it to you.

Homecoming

Wow. I am lazy. I wish I had a better excuse for not posting for an entire month, but the truth is that there were episodes of Heroes to be watched, trips to Whole Foods to be made and lame, rambling riffs on the guitar to be played ad nauseum. And those things just took precedence over blogging. Also Christmas happened. And before that my Grandma died, and before that Thanksgiving happened. And in between there were lots of people visiting. So, hopefully those excuses will suffice.

So after 6 months of ABBA, gambling, palm trees, high winds, a walk-in closet, a Ford Focus and a Mucinex addiction, the time has come to return home. Hooray! My last performance will be on Sunday January 27th after which I'll go home to Minnesota for a few days and then head back to sweet, sweet, delicious New York.

So we should totes party when I get back. And I extend that invitation to anyone who finds themselves reading this. Bring your plus-one and let's hang out because chances are I've missed you. And if I've forgotten you in the hustle and bustle of my fabulous Vegas life, then once you remind me who you are I'll totally realize that I have missed you all along. I will be accepting congratulatory drinks, dinners, lunches, shows and yoga classes through February. xoxoxoxoxoxo
