This is me on election day. I’m wearing all red white and blue. I have had 4 hours of sleep. As I take this picture, I’m tired from knocking on doors and making sure people have rides to the polls. I had such a great time talking with people today and making new friends. AndContinue reading “More Election Day pics”

Quick post: Went to Obama rally in Manassas last night. 100,000 people. The energy was insane. We walked up and down the cars who were stuck in miles of traffic and talked to people in their cars. We took pictures of cars and people. You cannot imagine how amazing the energy was. We got thereContinue reading
Thanks to great friends!
I just got a great package from Heather. Ahhh Heather!! You’re the best! I’m so excited to go downstairs and settle into the couch, in front of a blazing fire, and open up my new book–courtesy of Miss Heather–while digging into a bowl of cookies and cream ice cream. Truly, this is my bliss. ThankContinue reading “Thanks to great friends!”
Acting Students
I started teaching acting at NOVA Community College. They’re a great bunch of hams.Here’s a couple pics of my Acting 1 students. Here’s Marina and Syed rehearsing their scene. Yes, I was taking pictures when I should have been listening closely. I know, I’m horrible. But they’re just so cute I had to take theirContinue reading “Acting Students”
On the Street Where You Live
This is the Potomac River. I took this pic from the George Washington Memorial Highway. I was driving home from visiting teaching. Right now I am soooo happy to be living in such a beautiful corner of the world. It almost makes it worth the traffic! And this is the street where I live. ComingContinue reading “On the Street Where You Live”
Seeing and Recognizing
I remember a moment on my mission where we were watching this gorgeous little 2 month year old baby girl stare at the sides of our heads. We realized that she was looking at very specific things–and not just staring off into space–when she started to smile. It was so clear that she was lookingContinue reading “Seeing and Recognizing”

Learning to Love the Nights
Yesterday was a wonderful day. I wasn’t perfect, but I had a nice day. At the temple, I saw a couple of people who seemed like tourists. It was a son and his elderly mother visiting the temple for the first time. They were from somewhere in the UK. Inside the temple, I began toContinue reading “Learning to Love the Nights”
Doing Difficult Things for Yourself
I’m going through an interesting in phase in life. I have become the sole manager of my time. When I was a little kid, I stayed up late, if I could–but my mom wouldn’t let me. I love to sleep in, but I couldn’t–because I always worked jobs that started at 8am. I was neverContinue reading “Doing Difficult Things for Yourself”
I won something!
Yesterday morning I woke up at the crack of 7am! I had a conference I needed to attend in Richmond, VA–which is about a 90 minute drive from DC. I’ve never been to a conference that wasn’t theatre related and theatre people will be casual as often as humanly possible. So I wasn’t sure whatContinue reading “I won something!”
