Oh, Wyoming

I must admit I've been feeling homesick these past few weeks following my long Christmas vacation. Over break, I was definitely spoiled frequently going out alternating family to friends, friends to family... Two weeks of social time that will have to suffice the coming months without. This of course leads into my New Year's Resolution: to keep in touch with people better. So, like my lovely friend, Megan, I would like to invite my loyal readers (whoever you may be to post a comment- introducing yourself, how you know me, and what you are up to this winter).

Being the Virgo (and my mother's daughter) I am, I have begun structuring my hotel days to workout times, reading times, and eventually rehearsing times, so that I can begin preparations for the audition season. There's really nothing else to do in this Wyoming town. Speaking of which, Wyoming is a beautiful state. Our drive from Jackson to here was so interesting. We saw several hawks, and think we may have seen a bald eagle. It went from 2 1/2 feet of snow in the mountains, to real cowboy desertous land. And, sorry to say, "Brokeback Mountain" wasn't taped here (that's all Alberta and New Mexico), however, surrounding towns we passed during our "Sunday Drive" are very reminiscent of scenes in the movie.

In a week or two, I should know if I have time off to catch the MidWest Theatre auditions in St. Louis. It's been really cool to hear about what other colleagues are up to, and I'm thrilled to think about the opportunities that are yet to come if I do something other than watching repeats of Will and Grace and Sex and the City in my hotel room. Anyway, time to post away. Who saw "Brokeback Mountain"? Who dreams of visiting Wyoming? Who wants to "save a horse, ride a cowboy?"
