So I’ve been absent again. Health got me down again (shocker!) but I’m on my way back up.

Here’s my improv breakdown in digest form for past SEVEN DAYS I’ve been a-missin’:

I DIDN’T BREAK IMPROV! My back-to-back shows sitting in with The Sit-In w/ Stool Pigeon and Dr. Doctor went better than I expected them to. I didn’t even fall down.I followed that up with class on Monday (brilliant!) and class on Tuesday (stop telling me to play a ditzy person, dammit!).

I signed up for yet another workshop. (The Dramatic Improv workshop at The Hideout with Roy and Kareem).

I was drafted into the IFV (Improv Fantasy League). LONESTAR DEATHSTAR — fear the force, y’all.

And then after all of that awesomeness, I got sick. This stupid immune system with its stupid not being 100% and making me miss WORK which takes away from my vacation hours which means I’M NOT GOING ANYWHERE THIS YEAR. Oh, I’m sorry. I’m yelling. I get really, really angry with myself, which in turn, makes me not treat my body with kindness, which perpetuates the cycle. I gave up on the cleanse and chose gin, instead. Wise choice? My blog says NO. But my blog is partial to vodka.

Tomorrow (!) starts the two-day Scene Work Assault Bill Arnett workshop. Which I’m super pumped for. Since it seems that most of the experienced improvisors I mentioned in the Craig Uhlir intensive are also taking this workshop, I’ll probably explode in a burst of nerves. But I’m going to channel that shit. CHANNEL IT.

(Or fall down.)

LINDSAY the AWESOME took this because she’s awesome. Did I mention her awesomeness already? If not, SHE’S AWESOME:
