Anywhere But Here

Ever wondered what was out there? Beyond what you grew up knowing I mean.
Have you ever wished that you could just drop everything and just hit the open road without looking back? Sure, you might not know where you're going but that's half the fun. Let you heart lead and follow your dreams where ever they may lead.
I nearly followed mine today both ways: 4 miles outside Jefferson, SD and driving on county road 150 towards Correctionville, IA this afternoon. The only things that held me back were A) lack of money/no job, B) high gas prices, C) I hadn't packed for such a trip, and D) I have my family here. I couldn't simply up and leave. At least not without letting my dad know....

I do have a dream that's calling me though.
My mind is restless and my heart is weary!
Yes, I do have that particular guy I want to make mine!

God.....why do you make it so tempting, yet so difficult to do?

Simply Monkeying Around

I'm All Shook Up

Gah! Why do I always forget about this blog??

My summer has been going well so far.
I will be playing Mayor Matilda Hyde in a local production of "All Shook Up"!
For once in my life of theater, I've actually received a role I had my eyes set
on!
Rehearsals have been very productive and we are in our final days before the
show opens.

Might be stuff up on YouTube eventually....



In other news, the day -right- after I get done with "All Shook Up" I'm leaving on
a jet plane with a friend to Milwaukee, WI in order to visit and stay with another
friend for a week. I'm SO looking forward to that time spent. It'll be nice
to 'get away' from home for a bit.
