Awesome Post
I had a great idea for a post this morning. Can’t remember it, so you get this post instead.
July is shaping up to be a hard month. All this driving back and forth to the city (can I tell you how much I love driving in the city?) twice a day is wearing me out. I think The Boy is getting worn out too. It’s getting to be the last few weeks before the play, and things are getting intense, I think. The Hubby is burning the midnight oil at work. Travel has been moderate, but he’s been at the office late all week (ok, I know it’s only Tuesday, but it already feels like Thursday night!).
My goal for the week is to go to Tai Chi twice and kickboxing once. I just can’t spend all the time driving AND taking classes – I have to get some work done sometime, you know. So, I am on track – I went to tai chi this morning. We were in the small room again. Sometimes I like it and other times it feels claustrophobic. There were six students this morning and it was verging on claustrophobic. I will go again on Thursday – I haven’t been to a Thursday class for about 3 weeks. I bet Martiza thinks I’ve dropped off the face of the earth!
We’ve been watching Last Comic Standing. (We use the DVR and catch up whenever we remember to.) They’ve come up with some great ways to test the improv skills of the comics. There was a “boxing match” where they had to “hit” each other with one liners. There was the prop comedy test – they had to get items from a Bed, Bath and Beyond and then make a routine of props (like Carrothead does). Whoever wins the contest has “immunity” and can’t be voted off that week. Then each comic votes who they think should be off the show. The one with the most votes gets to choose 2 others, and then all 3 of them go in front of a club audience to do their routine. The winner of that stays on the show; the other two are gone. It makes for a quick way to get rid of the dead weight on a reality show!
