This job has really been taking it out of me. I enjoyed last week when I had Thursday and Friday off for Fall Break and since Jakob's show is over I actually got to spend a Saturday with him doing the things we needed to catch up on and actually working on some projects. Amazing. Plus, last night we were actually able to go on a date (first time in forever!) which was really nice to be able to sit at a restaurant and talk, not worried about making a rehearsal deadline or having to do to a charity event.

Don't get me wrong, I like working charity events. There are just some events that don't do well with me--perhaps it is certain people who show up at events that make them unbearable. I have fun getting in costume and bringing smiles to faces, but there are just some people who do what we do and ruin it for everyone by the way they take it. I know that sounds jumbled, but it makes sense to me. I guess I'm too much of a behind-the-scenes person to really want to be up in front and interacting. I like making sure other people look like they are put together (and some of those people need it!).

Eh, anyway.

What did make me smile the other day was the new "Smell like a Monster" Grover ad that a friend sent me. It made my day. So fun. And that made me want to go back and watch the Muppet Channel on YouTube. Yep, they have a channel. All I'm waiting for is for them to release the next season of The Muppet Show on DVD so I can continue my collection. These are just fun things to have going in the background when a movie doesn't sound too appealing and I'm sewing or working on fabric stuff. Plus, when I was growing up, it was something that would actually make my dad sit down and watch with us (that and animated movies).

Well, back to the real world; at least until 3pm
