Tonight we had the kids decorate their Christmas trees. this year Eva’s new ornament was a miniature Playbill for Hadestown because that is the play that she is working on at school. andy’s ornament is a “Fishmas Tree”. It is a bunch of fish shaped like a little christmas tree because Andy loved their fishes and Fishing class at Science School this Summer. I know it is called Ichthyology now but it will always be Fishes and Fishing.

On Tuesday night I did a thing. I saw that The Attleboro Community Theatre was holding auditions for The People vs. Frankenstein. I decided that I was going to audition. Mind you, I have not been on a stage since 1992.
I did not tell my family what I was doing nor where I was going. Allison had left for an event and I told Eva that I was going out and I’d be gone for a couple of hours. I’d tell her what I did when I got back. She pressed for more info so I told her it wasn’t dangerous or illegal and left. This did not sit well with her and she was more incensed when Allison got home before me and texted me where I was to which I immediately told her. I had already auditioned by that point. When Allison got the text she must have made an excited happy noise and then when Eva questioned her she told Eva that she’d let me tell her when I got home.
I hadn’t said anything because I wasn’t sure until my name got called that I would actually go through with it, but I did. I’m glad I did.
