I know, I know.
You'll believe it when you read it.
But I am! This is me, typing at you.
You're thrilled, aren't you? I can tell. Don't be coy.
See... it's been a little hectic around here at ATT (All This Time - y'know - the name of the blog? Sheesh.) And, in fact, there was NOT a whole heck of a lot of time to go around for yours truly... Certainly not very much of the FREE variety.
But the Crazy Train finally derailed and dumped me off here and I can now get back to my (semi/kinda/oh-so-occasionally-but-dang-the-cat-picture-kept-us-all-going-for-awhile) regular bloggy goodness!!
Actually, it was little more like - those rampaging dudes in the Wild Hunt (see picture, above) finally let go of my hair. Except with less nudity. A lot less. More like, comfy pants and puffy shoes and all hunched over my laptop pounding away like a maniac so I could meet my deadline.
Which I did.
While performing twice a day for two weeks in Tempest Theatre Group's awesome awesome production of MACBETH. Playing Lady Macbeth. And the first witch. With eight costume changes and wigs.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS.
Still, it was a wild ride...
But it's nice to be back. With you. My readership of probably negative one-ish. I love you so.
Whoa, whoa, whoa! You played one of the witches too?! Jeez, I'm amazed you have the energy to stand upright.
ReplyDeleteMy God, no wonder you never write! ;-) (I kid, because I love.)
Welcome back. Being busy is the price of success. What opera is that painting from? Is that the Ride of the Valkyries from "The Ring of the Nibelung"?

I just re-read your post. Oh. The Wild Hunt from Celtic myth. I see. Who did the painting?

Hey Guys!
ReplyDeleteDoug - I ALWAYS write! I'm just uber-sucky at writing e-mails! Will rectify soon...
You'll be amused to know that (on accounta the wig) the first witch more than vaguely resembled a certain former movie host... "hrnyuh-huh"
Hey Rusty!
Its a painting called Åsgårdsreien by Peter Nicolai Arbo (1872).
It's a slightly more Nordic version of the Hunt than the one that has had me in its clutches of late, but I do love that painting!
Oh, goodness. Trishy as a witch. "When shall 'Wheeee!' three meet again?"
