Footloose
Announcing my return to the world of musical theater- I will be playing the role of Ariel Moore in "Footloose" the musical at the Runaway Stage, here in Sacramento. I am hoping that I will learn a lot about acting. I will also get to sing George's favorite song, "Holding On For A Hero". I don't know if I have the chops to actually make him cry like the fairy godmother in Shrek 2 did. Oh yeah, that was the leaping horse, right.

George dumped me after we dated for a few months way back during our Junior year in HS and I acted like I didn't care but I could not even go to school that day and even though it got better I did not go a day without thinking of him even up until the day he told me not to marry someone else because I should marry him. Good times....

She's Crafty....
For the year of 2009, my goal is to become super crafty. By the end of the year, I want to be able to sew or otherwise make a good portion of the clothes the girls wear myself. I am happy to report that during the month of January, I have made progress.
1. I learned how to knit. I just got a book and started trying stuff. I am actually really glad that I started with knitting for reasons I will cover later in this post. This is one of my few completed knitting projects because it TAKES FOREVER for me to knit. This bun cover was relatively easy and only took me about 45 minutes to complete. Kate wore it to ballet class on Saturday and she said that it was a hit.
2. I learned how to crochet. I started with knitting because the word "knit" is less intimidating to me than the word "crochet". It is a good thing that I started with knitting because I am not sure that I would have practiced knitting as much as I did during the last couple of weeks had I known how much faster crocheting would be. I started to crochet yesterday and I have already made a bunch of stuff, including the above scarf and hat that George hates. He says that my hat looks like I have a fuzzy caterpillar on my head. I don't care, because I designed it and I made it and to me, that is the coolest thing ever. Hence, the sunglasses. :)
3. I learned how to operate my sewing machine. Yes, I purchased a sewing machine way back in 2001. I tried to use it once, but the thread kept snapping and I decided that I was not cut out for operating a sewing machine. I have spent the last 8 YEARS convinced that I am too lame to use it. I have also spent a little bit of time studying an assortment of mechanical objects (actually, a lot) so when I pulled the thing out (still threaded in the same BASS-ACKWARDS way I tried to do it way back when) I had it running seamlessly (no pun intended) in less that 2 minutes. All I can say is that I am glad that I did not wait any longer.
