pipistrellafelixThings I Love Today:
*The Sequence! And my cast, and my director, and my crew, and oh gosh, it's so great to do theater. This play is short and snappy and scary and fun, and I well and truly love everyone involved in it, whether I'm onstage with them or giggling in the lobby or speeding through lines or frantically quickchanging backstage. I'm super proud of this one, guys. (FB event is here--check it!)
*My masks! I can love these now, because I'm DONE, baby. Well, as good as; I have to pop in at some point and do a little sewing on all the hound capes, but that'll take me just a few minutes. I think they're actually pretty good. It's sort of hard for me to tell since I feel like I've had my head buried in them for so long that I can't see what they're really like anymore. But on Sunday I get to sit on a blanket in the park and watch them parade around onstage, for real, and that will be a great satisfaction.
* My bed. It's not at all new, but for some reason I've lately been having a great appreciation for my bed--I'm not sure where it's come from, but there you are. I'm really enjoying how fluffy my comforter is and how freakin' comfortable my mattress is and all my pillows and how my quilt is just the right temperature when it gets too warm at night, and the little lights I have strung up around the headboard (that make me feel like Amy Pond). Who knows. It's the little things.
* Outdoor Theater Season Begins! Oh yes please. This weekend is the Outdoor Theater Festival at Volunteer Park, and I'll be going as much as I can. I have seriously been daydreaming about lounging on a blanket with a picnic watching theater in the park for MONTHS, I'm not even exaggerating here. It makes me so happy and relaxed to just flop on the grass, in the warm summer air, and eat tasty food and drink tasty drinks and watch people perform lovely stories. It's the best.
*& also: teaching kidlets sword combat (oh the agonies and joys), finding a present for someone that they didn't expect; having new dramaturgical projects; people I love getting new opportunities; avocadoes (were they on this list last week? I don't care); open-toed sandals in warm summer grass; that feeling of sticky enervation you get after a long summer day; driving with all the windows down, the sunroof open, and the radio up loud; wearing the same pair of shorts four days in a row because they're perfect; cool showers in the morning; reading an entire YA novel in one day and night; SUMMER!
