Guess Who's Back?

I had a lot of trouble maintaining this blog the first, second, and fifth time but I really wanted to give it another go. I think my problem before was that I was too scattered, too unsure, and taking too much well-intentioned advice from everyone and their brother. I've decided to try again and just see what happens. No pressure, with my own vision (or lack thereof) taking precedence.

I have another blog that chronicles only my current transformation to veganism. So, for non-foodies, never fear, recipes and thoughts on food will almost never be featured on this blog. For foodies, please check out my other blog if you're interested.

So, just to recollect myself, here is a reminder of who I am/what I do/other information that may determine what gets posted. I am (in no particular order):

• First and foremost, the proud half/owner of Gadfly Theatre Productions. We are a company primarily concerned with giving a voice to the voiceless with a focus in queer and feminist theatre.
• A theatre and film director.
• An occasional thespian.
• A freelance photographer/mixed medium artist.
• A loving and devoted friend, roommate, sister, daughter, granddaughter, etc.
• A tarot card reader interested in learning more forms of divination.
• A writer (currently a columnist for a new queer-centric social networking site that's about to be huge, working on a play to open Gadfly's 2012/2013 season, and working on a lesbian faerie tale about...faeries.)
• An avid reader, theatre goer, movie buff, and yes, occasional television fiend.
• An out and proud lesbian.
• A freak for anything vintage (especially 1960's era).
• A lover of travel and new experiences.
• Endearingly awkward in certain dating or social scenarios.
• Working on becoming vegan (although that's already been stated).
• Extremely passionate.
• Assistant Box Office Manager at Mixed Blood Theater, a wonderful company devoted to cultural pluralism.
• A very happy inhabitant of the Twin Cities, MN.
• In love with life.
• Living with PCOS and Rheumatoid Arthritis (although since going vegan, the latter at least has not been nearly as bad) but grateful that I don't have it worse.
• Very easily amused.

I (think) this about covers the scope of things; pretty broad, but as one life coach informed me I am a 'renaissance soul, and feel incomplete without a lot going on'. I'm learning that the trick is being okay with that and settling in for a life of unexpected trials and pleasures; but you know what? I wouldn't really have it any other way.

I may be de-anonymizing for the heck of it and deleting some old passages. We'll see.
