I'm back (I think)

Ok. Ok. So my last entry on here called for my end. It was premature - as are all of our "why am I doing this?" talks. I just had mine in a public forum. I guess I was looking for any signs of support and of course got little to none.

I hope that's because there's no one reading this - not that no one cares. But so what if no one cares. This is my life & I need to make the most of it right?

Shakespeare

I returned to the improv stage with my own crazy self challenge. I had forgotten that months ago I signed up to do my one-man improvised Shakespeare show at The Planet Ant.

So last Monday I went ahead with it. As is usual for shows I'm in, there were very few people there and only one (Jaime Moyer) who came to see my thing. I did my one-man in front of 4 people I did not know and 6 improvisers I fully respect:

Margaret Edwartowski
Dave Davies
Dave Herbst
Tim Robinson
Jaime Moyer
Pete Jacokes

All of them gave me GREAT feedback on the show. They all loved it & I had so much fun.

So I got my confidence back. Sometimes it just takes putting your ass on the line - challenging yourself to do something different.
