Things I Learned At Work Today

I love my job.
I get to dress up in costumes and sing and dance and make people smile and it's the best.
But sometimes we have really long days in a small room crammed together and we get a little bored backstage and a little loopy. 
Today was one of those days.

Here are some of the things I learned:

• Writer's Block is a BITCH
• Car tires are like feet, and that every time you hit a curb it's like stubbing a toe, and that eventually breaks your foot
• You Can't Always Get What You Want
• Just because a book is a best-seller doesn't mean it's for you
• Learn what's under your control, let go of the rest. 
• Slow internet is a BITCH
• DID YOU KNOW that in Uno, when you don't have a card to play, you only draw ONE??? I always thought it was draw until you get a playable one. Right?!? Wrong.
• I may have a compulsive need to be right...
• It is really fun to have musical friends and make up songs in 4 part harmony
• If you're wearing blue jeans with a hole in the butt and wearing navy underpants to hide it, make sure the underpants and hole line up
• People will make fun of you if you call them underpants
• It is not attractive to be jealous when the sister of your boyfriend's 8th grade girlfriend sits in the front row..
• Some people think it's acceptable to answer a phone call & have a whole conversation in the front row of a play. (In case you're one of those people - It's NOT.)
• As much as I try to pretend, a vegetable juice is NO replacement for pizza
• If I was industrious, here are the things I would make for St. Patricks Day: Irish Soda Bread Scones with Whiskey Butter, Irish Whiskey Affogato!, Chocolate Whiskey Cake, Irish Beer and Cheese Bread
• It takes a surprisingly short amount of time to do 150 legs lifts and 50 crunches
• It's surprisingly painful to do 150 leg lifts and 50 crunches
• ...Ok. I did 30 crunches. But it still hurt. 
• And sometimes when you're bored you create things like a character called The Wine Gremlin
