This blog is for general ranting and stuff that goes on my every day life in work and relationships. Stuff that is incredibly personal will not be posted on this blog. For all theatre related commentary please go to my Theatre is My Life blog.

In regards to the sports scores entries
So I have been doing enties with sports scores in them for awhile. I have been debating about weather or not to keep posting them. At this point I feel it is kind of a waste of time to retype all these scores so as of today I wil stop doing those entries. I will only highlight SHS NEC teams and Boston teams from now on and whenever I do a regular update the scores will go at the end of those entries.

2012!
Hello!!! :) I have been attempting to make a full fledged transition to tumblr but right now I am still getting adjusted to using the site. I may still post here on occassion because I am honestly not really sure if I want to move this blog or Theatre Is My Life over to Tumblr on a full time basis. I will tak things slow for right now.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
Igot home fom Massachuetts about an hour ago. My family went to First Night in Boston. I found the genral idea of it to be very similar to the Holiday Stroll in Nashua. Lots of concerts and performances to see and stands to buy food at. It was quite the experience. I got the most exercise I had in in awhile. We got down to Boston at about 1:30 and went out to a late lunch at PF Chang's. Delicious Chinese food and heathier than most Chinese food I usually eat. We went to a jazz concert but did not stay there for long because the room was filled to capacity. After that we just spent an hour walking around the city and then watched a parade at 5:45 which was pretty neat. Lots of cool floats. We met Matt at 10 mins of 8 and then went to see a Beatles Cover Band perform They were really good. Made me reminicise a lttle about the days at NEC when JFJ used to play. After that we walked around Boston Common for a bit then saw the end of an improv show and then went to a dance party in Copely Square at which we rang in 2012. Today we slept in til 10:00 went to visit my grandma at the nursing home she's in and then went over my grandparent's hosue for dinner where we orders steak and lamb from the New Bridge Cafe. And... the Patriots won thier last game of the regular season. Let's hope they make it to the Super Bowl! All in all a pretty good start to 2012.
This has been quite a wonderful year for me.
Things can only get better from here in my honest opinion. In January I auditioned for the Amherst PTA Play The Music Man and got in. It was
great to be on stage again. Auditions for Oklahoma are coming up on January
4th. I graduated from Project Search on June 20th but was lucky enough to land a
job at the Nashua YMCA 6 weeks before graduation took place. My duties at the
YMCA include checking people in, giving tours of the facility and doing
membership paperwork. I am also the editor of the Volunteer Newsletter. A huge
plus to working at the Y is getting a discounted membership and I have taken full advantage of that by taking Zumba classes. I highly recommend Zumba to
anyone interested in trying it (and thak Rae Demoose immensly for recdcommmending that I take it.) I also landed another freelance writing job at The Nashua Telegraph covering theatre shows in the Nashua area and did freelance work this summer for Interlakes Summer Theatre in Meredith. Matt and I will be celebrating our four year anniversary in June 2012 and plan to move in together within the next year. I was also very excited that
Lucia came to visit this summer. We had a wonderful weekend stay in Hebron NH.
2. Write more poetry
3. Take advantage of more fitness classes at the Y.
4. Take Spanish classes
5. Rae will come visit for Cooper’s party in July.
1. Princess Kim play will win play contest at Bowling Green Unoversity
2. Princess
KIM play will be selected for 2013 summer season at Peterborough Players
3. Red Sox will have a much better season than last year and hopefully make it to the
playoffs.
4. We will go visit Kristin when she studies abroad in London in spring 2013.
5. Matt and I will have a wonderful vacation in the Berkshires in April
6. Matt and I will get an apartment in downtown Nashua
7. Anthony will get into Westfield State
8. Have a blast at Jamie and Dave’s wedding
9. Issues with the ownership of the Hull House will be worked out
10. Ryan and Victoria are in the process of looking at colleges and will choose Ithaca
as one of their top schools.
11. Everyone is healthy

Will goal # 3 be acheivable?
#3 on Hopes/Dreams/Goals list for 2011 Rae will come visit this summer
Rae is a good friend of mine from NEC who transferred spring of my senior year * her sophomore year* I haven't seen her since then so we are long overdue to see each other.
Summer is fading fast and it has been rather busy (for me and most likely for Rae) we haven't really nailed down any definite plans though tenative plans have been in the works since March. Everything hinges on her schedule so I am hoping she is able to get time off from work to come visit. We have tried to get together in the past few years but due to various circumstances our plans have changed at the last minute. I am hoping we'll be able to get something solidified in the next couple weeks.
I miss Rae a ton and haven't seen her in forever. :)
So once again schedules did not coicide with eachother and this goal will carry over to next year She rcently moved in with her mom in PA so maybe Matt and I will go down that way to visit her at some point. I haven't the slightest idea when we are going to New York again but there is always the option that she can meet us in the city though I think she was a lot closer to NYC whetn she lived in Jersey and I am not sure how far the citm is from where she currently lives. She has a new boyfriend who I look so foward to meeting. The four of us will go on many adventures. Hopefully budgets and schedules allow these plans to happen! That has been the biggest issue in the past.

Another Thought For The Day-Tumblr
So it gets pretty boring on here sometimes. Mostly I feel like I do this mostly for myself. While this 95% true I feel I would benefit in having a blog on a site where I have more friends who blog so where could share our insights on issues that affect us and whatnot
Livejournal is too old school and overrated not giving that site a second glance. That's why I started blogging on blogspot more often in the first place.
Seriously considering moving this blog over to tumblr starting after the holidays. I spent a lot of time in the spring transferring old lj entries over to this blog so I am not sure I am exactly ready to part with this blog fully yet. I like to reveiw the old entries and see just how far I have come since my NEC days. Once I move to tumblr that will become my permanent personal blog. I will only be coming back to blogger to update my Theatre Is My Life Blog and the blog about the Princess KIM Play.

I will slowly but surly make the transition to tumblr. Once full transfer is complete I will still keep this blog up but will no longer be updating it.

Week 8 Dancing With The Stars Power Ratings
Due to a power outage I missed Dancing With The Stars last week. David Arquette was eliminated which was unfortunate because I think Hope should have been the one to go home.
Week 8 Dancing With The Stars Power Ratings
1 JR & Karina
2. Ricki and Derek
3. Rob and Cheryl
4. Hope and Maks- Hope has really improved a lot from two weeks ago I must say. She could easily be a contender for the trophy now.
5. Nancy and Tristian. I think Nancy will go home this week.

Thought for the day- On Snowtober
This past weekend we got a huge noreaster. Oh, New England weather. My street still slightly resembles a war zone. A very picture worthy site, Those will be taken eventually. Our power was out since Saturday night and just came back on at 12:15. I was freaking out because I thought I was going to have to cancel my weekend plans which had already been rescheduled from last weekend because the power was still going to be off. Thank goodness. I will look forward for it to snow when it is actually supposed too. I hate suprise noreaters like these, They tend to catch me off gaud.
