LOOKING FORWARD TO NOVEMBER

This week I met with the theater bloggers and we went to eat at a restaurant in Downtown Minneapolis. I had this amazing lobster macaroni.

I also did some improv online

We did jokes of association like an actor was a character who always sweats, and someone said "Don't sweat it."

I played some Quiplash games with language Learners.  It was so incredibly fun.  Sometimes when I'm laughing it literally sounds like I'm so out of breath.

Something about this Novel, "Better than fiction" reminded me of "The Noel Diary" which is on Netflix

Synopsis of "The Noel Diary,"---Cleaning out his childhood home at Christmas, a novelist meets a woman searching for her birth mother. Will an old diary unlock their pasts — and hearts? 

Synopsis of "Better than Fiction"--Love isn't always by the book in this charming romantic comedy about a bookseller discovering how to be the main character in her story when she meets a famous Romance novelist.

LOOKING FORWARD TO November

This week I spent some time on Tandem app helping English learners. We played a game similar to Quiplash called Votesout (the free version).  In this game, you answer fun questions for example you may get a question like this:

What is the best way to scare a burglar?  And you add your response and it's voted on.

I made a new friend in my building named Nicki and we spent some time declutering my apartment and moving things around. I felt pretty great afterwards, like I could take on any project.

Earlier in the week, I went to a dental appointment related to putting the actual crown on the teeth. Then I learned that because my general dentist at the University of Minnesota closed its building, I'd have to get another appointment to ensure that my teeth were up to par before the procedure. Wow!  They asked me if I wanted the gold crown or porcelain or some other, and I was like "I'll choose the one that looks the most like my other teeth." 

I also learned that the dental student would be transferring to Mankato to work in their mobile clinic and I learned that mobile clinics are a great way to cut costs from building rentals.

HUGE Improvathon will be coming up Nov 16-17 and this will be 28 hours of continuous improv. Our Disability access team will be performing in it at 11:40 at night.

That's my week. Tell me about yours in the comments below.
