No's come at me from all areas of life.
Tonight I'm thinking the silence is a NO.
Sigh...chin up buttercup...right?!

Today

Didn't do much today on the "looking for future jobs" front ... nor did I do much with the MS Play or anything else theatrical. Doing several things manana ... including working out a Clowning "Daisy Girl Scout Patch" with a friend of mine who's the troop leader of a local Daisy Troop, how cute will that be?! :o)

We'll see what else I get done tomorrow ... tomorrow! G'night ya'll ... and blargh to "falling back" - grumble grumble getting darker earlier and all that jazz!

No Post

No Post from yesterday ... 11/5/11 ... Nothing to post about yesterday either, No theatrey stuffs done, and that's the truth!

MS Play

Well how awesome is this ... the audition sign up sheet was officially put out today in the MS Main Office, and before the day was over I was notified that it was almost full and in need of another sheet for students to sign up on. Those are some good vibes!

Either I'm doing something right ... or there's a lot of Greek Mythology Fans at GCS Middle School ... or perhaps both! :)

Resume Submitted

Woot woot!

Today I actually submitted my resume for something. The Education Coordinator at Cap Rep asked me to sent it to her, as she knows I teach, to see if I might be a good fit for Cap Rep's summer program. We shall see what happens. :)

I love it when work breeds work!

NO Post Yesterday ... what a slacker ...

No NOvember 2nd post now either ... I'm such a slacker.
Actually, I spent the day working on some GCS MS Play stuff. Prep'ing for my Drama Kids Classes. And then teaching three Drama Kids Classes.
End Scene.

Do the Time Warp!

Ooooooops ... NO blog post for NOvember 1st, 2011 ... whoops!

Yesterday's info ... officially turned in the "Pure Poe" prompt book at the theatre, along with the keys ... hope to get hired back. Both Maggie (the Artistic Director of the theatre and the Director of the show) and the Education Director, Laura, said that I did a great job! And Laura asked me to send her my teaching artist resume for their summer teaching positions, so ... we'll see what happens. And as I turned in my keys to the Production Manager (who does the hiring) I said something like, Peace Out and or Hire Me Again! He smirked ... only time will tell.

I'll be seeing "Man of La Mancha" there in a week, and there's the Company Christmas Party on Dec. 19th, so that's fun and exciting to look forward too!

And I had my Tuesday night Drama Kids yesterday, all classes went well! :) One of the classes I hadn't been to this year, but was a class I did last year so many of the kiddos knew me already, chimed in with a rather enthusiastic 'MISS MAGGIEEEEE" when they saw me! :)

AND I've gotten the GCS MS play "going" ... the official announcement was made on Monday in school, and tomorrow I will "post" the information on auditions and production weekend! So now onto show research ... and other good stuffs in prep!

And that was yesterday!

PS...Welcome November (stay away cold, ha ha ha)!
