Life is good.

SO....FL is awesome.  I am getting paid to lay by the roof top pool and drink pina coladas...well we did do two shows yesterday...

We are in Punta Gorda.  It is beautiful.  Our hotel is swanky and posh.  I feel like a sophisticated (spoiled lady).  Its funny to think only a couple of weeks ago we were stranded on the side of the road in the snow.  A day like today makes touring pretty darn desirable. 

Much has happened since our little miracle Emma appeared.  We had a couple of shows in Ohio, then headed back south to North Carolina.  Did two shows at East Carolina University.  Then headed to Spartanburg for a couple of days.  Spartanburg was a treat because my Beau and two of my loveliest friends came to visit!  I was also surprised by my friend Amy who came to the show!  I am one lucky gal.  We went to this Spartanburg dive called The Beacon.  They are known for great food and this thing called the pig's dinner.  It consists of about 20 scoops of icecream, piled high with pineapple and strawberry topping, covered (and I mean TOTALLY covered) in whipped cream.  We ate this.  It was awesome.

The time with my CLT friends and my beau was much needed and put an extra spring in my step.  We got to Orange Park, FL Tuesday.  I was in for another treat...my dear friend from high school lives in Jacksonville so we got together for a lovely dinner in her neighborhood.  Oh so refreshing! 

I drove us the 5 hours to Punta Gorda on Thursday.  FL drivers are the worst.  They either sit in the left lane going about 10 miles under the speed limit or pass you in the right lane going 100 mph.  Sheesh.  But we got to our swanky hotel safe and sound.  Oh...we also all got our own rooms.  The front desk made a mistake...too bad for us ;) 

Yesterday was a productive day.  We had two (very good) shows in the morning...I made an audition video for a theatre out in Washington State...edited it, sent it...sat poolside...gussied up for a Sarasota dinner adventure...ended up at the Daiquiri Deck in Siesta Key...reminded my of my sweet Grandma...fell asleep in the van on the way back.  It was a good day.

Today consisted of NOTHING but lazing by the pool and getting (too much) sun.  I feel great.  Really.

West Palm Beach tomorrow...my life just SUCKS.  :)

XO.
