So after pouring out one's heart and soul into something for six months...there's a release when it comes to an end.

I've been involved in theater since I was 5. I've been a professional stage manager for over 20 years. The non-union kind. There's a difference. Union techies find very little passion in their job...I believe my job gives me passion. So I am inclined to work harder and longer at something that gives me so much in return. And as I thought about that tonight...I...

There's the kind that's part of what I do...Stage Manage. And then the other kind.

Gone are the days where you can speak your mind, be generous without someone thinking you have a hidden agenda, or spank your child in public.
