Sunday Blog Post



Our improv Team



On Wednesday I went to a dance class at the YMCA, which just felt good — nothing complicated, just moving.

Later that day, I stopped by the Eagan, MN library and bumped into someone who was checking out the studio microphones. Since my son and I have been working on his YouTube channel, I recognized the equipment right away. The library has a Yeti microphone and a small recording room with sound-insulated walls. The person I talked to said they were recording a poem they had written. I mentioned how great it would be if the library offered podcast workshops for everyone.

Thursday — Our Improv Fundraiser

Thursday was our improv fundraiser, and it turned out to be a great success. That night we raised $90 for Strike Theater, and the audience was wonderfully responsive.

There were so many odd and funny moments:

  • I entered one scene as a palm tree on a Belize vacation brochure.

  • Someone else came in as a witch, and suddenly I was the good witch while they were doing voodoo on the island (at least I hope they did).

  • We kept heightening, and the audience stayed right with us.

One of the best parts was showing up as the leader for our team. Everyone was already gathered and waiting when I arrived, and I got to guide the start of the night. It made me feel grounded for the day.

On Saturday,, I finally got my brakes and front rotors fixed. I hired someone from Craigslist — a little risky — but he finished everything in under an hour and for less than $300. I was relieved it worked out so well.

That’s my week, tell me about yours in comments below

    Our Team on Thursday was absolutely so much fun! It was for a great cause and I think our final total for the Rubber Ducky Chicken Society was $370.
    Which in my opinion is absolutely Ducky!
