Um, hi.  I am super swamped and a little overwhelmed and um, a bad blogger.  Yeah that about sums it up.

The play I’m in is taking over my life.  And I wish I were happy about that.  Hate the play.  Hate my character.  Hate it all.  SO that’s awesome.  I have an eight hour rehearsal tomorrow that, as you can tell from the last sentence, I’m not exactly thrilled to attend.

There is a silver lining to my cloud though.  Tomorrow night I am flying to Utah to spend Sunday with friends and family and then, horror of horrors, I am being forced to go skiing on Monday (for work!!  I get to spend the day skiing and call it work!!) then spend the next two days at a user conference for one of our largest clients.  They just needed a body, and this body thought . . . I get to go home and spend time with my family, THEN go skiing, THEN meet the cool people at our clients office THEN spend Wednesday when the conference is over hanging out with friends in Salt Lake?  SOLD.  So I volunteered to be the body.  Lucky for them, the body they selected is one of the only people who knows how to assemble our booth.  So they killed many birds with one stone.  AND I GET TO GO HOME!  I wish I had more than just Sunday to see everyone I need to see, but still!  One whole day!  And I don’t have to pay for it!  Whoopee!

So um, I’m getting ready for the trip as well as spending all day at practice.  And attempting to find ski gloves, hats, pants and the like.  Because I, um, live in Phoenix and have no need for ski gear of any sort.  Bathing suits, yes.  Ski clothes, not so much.

With that stupid update, I’m off.  Friends in Utah, see you soon.  Friends in Phoenix . . . wait, I don’t have any of those.  Nevermind.
