I am in a play too, Hamlet at SRO. I play Horatio and I love it. It's a great role in a great story. Yes, it runs more than 3 hours, but what are you going to do? It's some of the greatest words ever written in the English language, and I get to say some of them on stage. I love it.
I got my crawl space encapsulated. They injected foam into the cinder block and lined the whole thing with a rodent-proof liner and put on a tight door. No more mice in the house and hopefully no more frozen pipes. Floors should be warmer this winter too. I hope the heat bill goes down. These are all good things, and I'm looking at the big price tag as an investment.
I'm going to New York at the end of October. See a play, hang out with my NY peeps. I am praying for good weather and inspiration of things to do.
Christmas is less than three months away. Gotta start shopping soon, but when?
