Adios Midwest, Hello East Coast!

Its crazy that I finally flew to Boston this past Sunday after having this planned for so long. I have to say my summer in Chicago flew by, and happy that this summer I actually was able to enjoy it. I took off the month of August to relax after all the craziness of the past year with ECT, and I was actually able to have some much needed time off. Honestly the longest i've ever had off from a show (both good and bad). I definitely missed having a show to work on, but I honestly needed it now since my life is about to get super crazy.

I also had the chance to spend time in Kansas City for 5 days with family, friends, and adjusting Gus to living back home with my parents. Honestly, this was probably one of the toughest choices I've had to make it. I've loved having my little furball with me in Chicago, and getting to have her around me. Since i've had her for 16 years the thought of spending months apart kills me, but I also know that while she's home she can get better and healthier (getting old, and having medical issues isn't fun).

Sunday I arrived in Boston. And learned quickly that Boston taxis don't always have the capability to take credit cards. Interesting arrival. Thanks to my dad and great uncle Andy, I am staying across the street from my great uncle's here in Brookline. It's definitely different than my Chicago neighborhood but i'm getting used to it.

These past two days at work have been A LOT of learning, a little anxiety, and getting to know everyone. The show I am working on has been touring around these productions for 25 + years. It's extremely nice that they already have everything down, same blocking, same sets (well updated), and really know what they are doing.

Tomorrow the whole process finally begins. I'm anxious, and excited to meet all my actors and crew that I will be with for the next couple of months.
