two weeks

i'm not as far behind this time! proud of me?

may 13 - may 19
THE COLOR RUN.

the color run is an awesome 5K that happens all over the country, in which you run through color stations where people throw color powder on you and by the end of the run you look like you've been tie-dyed. since i had run 7.46 miles the week before, i opted to walk this one with anna and christina. all the proceeds for the run went to the Ronald McDonald House. i'll definitely be doing it again...if i can register in time. this thing sells out fast!
oh yeah! back2bellingham happened this week too. it was pretty glorious. there's nothing like seeing people you haven't seen in awhile when you are feeling pretty good about yourself.
Chris Roselli, you're my hero.
may 20 - may 26
i spent most of the week in rehearsal. but i also got a haircut. and bangs. i'm diggin' 'em.

may 6 - may 12

i headed to spokane last week to see my family and run bloomsday: an annual 12k race that brings and extra 30,000 people to the city. for me, it was a trail race. i'm running a half marathon at the end of june and i needed a milestone between now and then. almost the whole family ran bloomsday and all of us had pretty decent times. brother definitely won. go brother!

my dedication gets worse and worse...

as you can see, i'm behind again. at this point, the blog appears to be monthly as opposed to weekly. i still get photos every week, i just forget to post them i guess.

oh well. another catch up post. ENJOY.

march 25 - march 31
i don't seem to have any pictures from this week. according to my planner i had coffee with amalia, rehearsed for my staged reading, and prepared for my boss' departure to her new job (i.e. i was at work A LOT). so, here's a picture of shannon and i at guilty pleasures. it's a silly picture, but as i said previously i felt good that night, no matter what the picture looks like.

i self-produced a staged reading monday of this week! i rented the Seattle Center House Black Box Theatre and got together a great group of friends who also happen to be very talented actors and put on a reading of three new one-acts i have written called Related Strangers. special thanks to Emily Kight, Anna Townes, Amanda Woodard, Shannon Erickson, and Analiese Guettinger for helping me get my work on it's feet.

i think the reading went very well. we had a pretty good turn-out, probably 15-20 people. a couple of very important people from work came to see the reading which meant a lot to me. and when i came to work on tuesday, i found this tapped to my computer:
 i have the greatest co-workers.

april 8 - april 14
i apparently forgot to fill out my planner for most of this week so i can't really reminder what i did. it was the office baby's first birthday though and he graced us with his presence for happy hour on the porch on a sunny day. happy first year wyatt (and congrats to josh & danielle!).

april 15 - april 21
this was a week of a couple of rehearsals with blood ensemble for a project called blood/sailing. it's a generative work based on a concept album by seattle heavy metal band Smooth Sailing. the show will take place in july at a to-be-determined venue. and between now and then a lot of fundraising is happening. so on april 16th, we filmed rehearsal for our upcoming kickstarter campaign. our filmographer also got some awesome stills during rehearsal. here's my favorite:
