Here's to a Year...raise a glass

So here's to sophomore year at college (raise a whiskey sour, mint julep, margarita, or hell a nice glass of white chardonnay if you so wish). It's been a bit tougher adjusting for this lady... thinking aint the same as doing so keep busy. THANK GOD FOR FRIENDS! Definitely missed ma ladies Laur and Mama D so finding them was like a weight lifted off my shoulders. Making new friends like all those freshmen who have taken to calling me momma bear (yall are so cute), and reconnecting with old lost connections. On the job front i'm doing work study this semester as costume shop assistant/ wardrobe and makeup supervisor for the main stages this semester. It's like meditation, the sound of the sewing machine humming steadily as i try for the 3rd time to maintain a 5/8 of an inch seam allowance. Or the steady smoothing of wig hair as it gets revived from years spend in a closet only to be thought of at the drop of a hat. Along those lines i have also been cast in my first theatrical endeavor...no not the mainstage but a student workshop directed by my friend Marge. We're putting on a production of "you me and wii" by sue townsend and the old lady will be played by yours truly. So far i'm enjoying it even though it's proving to be hard work. I guess being out of practice doesn't help but the lines are what kill me the most...today will be spent learning them like the back of my hand! Classes are fine. I'm enjoying my english, french, and voice classes but my politics of the 1960's class is really throwing me for a loop. so we'll see. For now i'll finish this episode of law and order and then take of my facemask and go to bed. Gnight to you too...or goodmorning :)
