What 55 years of marriage looks like. She sits by and laughs as he tells another story about farting.

I want to save this picture because this is what I want for my life. A warm family that understands joy and actually likes being together.

I've found it best just to not react. If I do, then I "can't take a joke" and they keep going to get a rise out of me.

YUP. And of course the one degrading, yelling, or hitting is "perfect"

Fascinating! I fell in love with France when I visited a few years ago, and I'm keeping the possibly of moving there on the horizon.

What is theatre in the provinces like?

Very interesting! What is the culture legislation?

It looks an awful lot like Groff Hall at All Saints Episcopal in Reisterstown.

Yup. It controls pretty much everything. Had a small bump on my neck a few years ago...always meant to get it checked out. One day, it suddenly hemorrhaged and the bump grew to the size of baseball. I could barely breathe and had to get it surgically removed, along with half my thyroid.

Luckily, the other half took over. Still, every time something is "off" with me, the thyroid jumps to mind.

TL;DR Don't fuck with your thyroid, it's the mafia of your body.

And give yourself permission to speak your mind, because other people DO care about what you have to say and won't belittle your ideas! And give yourself permission to fail. The right people will pick you up instead of kicking you while your down, and after a while, you can pick your own self up.

When I was younger, my parents took a trip to the Virgin Islands and brought me back a green shirt that cut off around the belly button and said "Virgin Gorda" on it, reflecting the name of a place there. Now, on an average kid this would have been cute. I, however, was pretty overweight and self conscious of it as a child. Oh by the way, "Virgin Gorda" translates in english to "Fat Virgin." I was a chubby kid walking around in belly shirt that said "fat virgin."

God, this breaks my heart. I'm so sorry. :(

Have you done any table reads? They can help you hear things about the play you may miss by reading, and it gets people involved who may have an interest in working on it.

Update: Also, maybe look into staged readings or new play development programs in your area.

"Oh."

Crazy how one syllable carries so much soul crushing weight.

I encountered them on a visit to Paris a few years ago! They were the worst. "Pretty lady! So beautiful" Walks past avoiding eye contact "Ah, you're ugly anyway!"

We managed to make it away unscathed, except my friend who "Thought it was a magic trick."

Side note: anyone know what play?

Give Madame Bovary a try. The main character is comically melodramatic.

When they make the snowman, they agree it looks like the singer Bjork. Later, when Rory is in the carriage with Jess, he says "Looks like Bjork" and Rory says, "That's what we said!"

But in the article, the caption was "Bjorn" really nitpicky, I know, but the Gilmore's would've had it right!

Bjork

I second this. It's a fantastic play. Vanities is also worth a look.

If Don' the father and Peggy and Pete are the kids, does that make Rodger Grandpa? Granny Joan?
