A break from theater and a new job

Music: Everyone’s a little bit racist

For the last 6 months, I’ve had a week when I wasn’t in rehearsal (or production) for a play. I’ve really enjoyed it, and have deeply appreciated the way it’s allowed me to get to know people in this community and start developing a social network. But now I’m glad to have my evenings back.

I started working in one of the houses at Goldenrod yesterday. Goldenrod is an organization that works with adults with developmental disabilities. I’m a caregiver there. I’ve been nervous about not being very good at it, but so far so good. I feel a bit like I was thrown in under-prepared, but as long as they don’t mind me making some mistakes, it should be fine.

I’m going to Evanston this weekend! yeah! Awww… I missed blogging.

My new mantra: Be kind. Everyone you meet is fighting a great battle.
