Tina Fey, OMG!
Also, word is that Amy Poehler won't be coming back to SNL after she gives birth. That's a bummer, but looks like there's now a cozy opening on the show that I can slide right into!

It's over!
So first, I'd just like to thank EACH AND EVERY PERSON who came to my recital. Every person there helped make it that much more special. The crowd was awesome- pretty big, and just very responsive. They were a dream come true! I ended up just having a great time out there, and I really think it was because the crowd was so amazing. Thank you!!!
Yesterday Samm made me drive up to Skamania to audition for a really small production of Thoroughly Modern Millie. They cast me as Miss Flannery, the goofy/stuffy secretary. I really only wanted Millie or Miss Dorothy for this show. I'm considering my options, but I'm pretty sure I won't accept the role. If Samm accepts his, I might as well, though.
Anyway, after that we hung out at Multnomah Falls for a bit. Then I went to SATC with my ladies! It was amazing, of course! Charolotte was my favorite this time, she was so much funnier than she used to be!
Lots of love happenin' right now.

So... am I the only one who is cool enough to understand the greatness of 'So You Think You Can Dance?'
Even if I am, you need to check out this guy. His name's Brandon Bryant, and he is the MOST AMAZING DANCER I'VE EVER SEEN!



Am I right?

Also, my recital is tonight..... eek!

Today I had:
A job interview.
A piano recital for my little dumplings.
Both went well- the job interview was good, but I don't think the job is for me. Still a positive experience, though.
The recital was ok- everybody was a little screwy, I think maybe the heat affected them.
Anyway, at the end of the recital they gave me TWO DOZEN BEAUTIFUL PINK ROSES and one of my girls gave a little speech. It was SO HARD not to cry, you have no idea! My families are all so great, it's going to be hard to leave them.
Lately between Matt and my kiddos I always seem to have a pretty bouquet in my house! I'm such a spoiled girl!
I asked Sophia how she was today and she said sweaty. That's about how I feel now, so I took my dress off and now I'm eating pickles in my underwear. Doesn't get much better than that, folks. Julie says life is easier when you have your pants on, but I sort of feel the opposite lately. Good thing I don't have a roommate right now!

Vanilla and lavender candles being burned, kava plus organic nighty night tea being drunk, fuzzy socks and flannel pajamas being worn, all trying to get me to calm the fuck down.
I don't know why I let myself get so stressed out this term, but I did. Anyway, one audition down, and one paper out of the way. So I've got a start.
I have a little performance tomorrow, I got asked to do a reading of The Seven Year Itch with Mt. Hood Repertory. I'm playing Miss Morris, the sexy secretary. It's a fun little project, and a great script, but I'm not loving the fact that it's during finals week. Oh well, c'est la vie. That's the price you pay for being, well, pretty much famous.
I love love love all of my friends, but sometimes I wonder why they hang out with me. I've got the most diverse ensemble of friends, and I don't feel like I really fit in with any of them. I stayed out too late last night. It was worth it, though, catching up with my high school friends. I just love 'em.
It always entertains me to think that Julie and I went to the same high school, but really we went to two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT high schools. We really did.
In case you were wondering, I keep post-its in my purse, on my desk, next to my piano, and in my kitchen. At all times.
I'm just really rooting for Tibet right now. And the seals. Please go to the PETA website and sign the seal petition.
