We are under two weeks people ! Seems hard to believe. Lots of you have been asking if I'm excited and I am, but I don't think it will be real until I get on that plane. I'm sad about Penny but I'm having Brendan remind me constantly about how fun it will be to see her again in November. That makes me happytown USA ! We'll get to the picture above later. I still haven't bought a camera yet so I'm still posting old pics. Yeah Procrastination !
This weekend was a ball! I played my last improv shows until November. The Baby Wants Candy show was one of the most fun shows I've done since I started with them. Just silly and full of laughs on stage and off. I hate trying to describe improv scenes because the description never does any of them justice. But....what the shit. In the improv set, post-show, there was a band geek scene involving horrible speech impediments and the piano hilariously NEVER matching up with the instrument we were playing. If any of you have the pleasure of performing with Joey Bland, you know once he starts laughing on stage, YOU ARE DONE. The scene ended with myself, Joey and Erica Elam in tears. Huzzah ! Then onto the Improv Match Game at midnight. I have to say that this show is such a treat to do. It's relaxing, fun and just so full of great bits. I also feel like I get to play and hang out with people I wouldn't normally see a lot. And if you know my love for puns, you know my alter ego "Punmaster" has a blast every time she plays.
Sunday was the Pride parade which I watched with my hilarious friends Al, Emily, Rob and Doug. All these friends are fairly new and some of the best people I have gotten to know in the last few months. This was four hours of cheering, bits and laughter ! And sunburn. Hopefully I'll be able to get some pictures up of the parade later.
The next week or so will be filled with fun times and seeing friends before we go ! Last night was no exception. Brendan and I had dinner and some karaoke with Tim, Erin, and Amber who are from the Denver cast and of course our good pals. First off, if you live in this Northcenter area, eat at Feed the Beast on Lincoln and Cullom. This place is a beast of a DELIGHT ! The picture above is from our closing night in Denver on New Years Eve with everyone I just mentioned sans Brendan. Erin is six months preggers with their first kid and I can't stop touching that stomach ! I've never had a close friend who is pregnant so it is fascinating to hear her take this journey. I mean there's a baby in there ya'll ! I'm sad we won't be here in September when the baby is born but can't wait to meet him/her when we get back. My money is on a girl and Erin and Tim are going to name it Curly Green McIrish. We went to the Hidden Cove to sing our asses off and here was the running order of what we sang:
*Amber - Something to Talk About by Bonnie Raitt
*Beth - Baby Got Back by Sir Mix-A-lot
*Erin and Baby - Flashdance by the Flashdance lady
*Beth and Brendan - Endless Love (with killer ass harmonies) by Lionel Ritchie and Diana Ross
*Brendan and Amber - Somewhere Out There by James Ingram and Linda Ronstadt (Amber sang the Ingram part. It was amazing.)
*Tim - All Mixed Up by 311 (a sentimental dedication to his baby)

Oo! Excited about the blog.
Also, I eat at Feed the Beast a lot. I feel like it's slipping a bit. Or maybe I just eat there too much.
