Haircut
Well, last Tuesday I visited a local salon and had my hair cut. To most of you this doesn't sound interesting but for me it was very cool. I had hair long enough to donate to locks of love and so I had twelve inches cut off. We are going to mail it in after we can print the before and after pictures to send in. If you do a little research you will find out that so many people lose their hair to cancer. Although it seems impossible to do anything but donate money to find a cure there is one thing you can do that costs nothing but a little time. You can donate your hair. If you grow out your hair long enough to cut off at least ten inches you can put it in a ponytail and ship it off to locks of love. I grew my hair out for two years and then had twelve inches cut off, with hair enough to put into a ponytail! Although it is hard to go from having lots of hair to having only a little hair it is worth it when you know that you are giving your hair to someone who may never be able to grow their own hair again and couldn't afford to buy a wig. Here is the link to the website where you can find out about donating your hair: http://www.locksoflove.org/donate_hair.php

Seussical
Well hello everyone, it has been a while since I posted but I am back now. Yesterday was the audience dress rehearsal at Lamp-Light for the Seussicle and it went very well. There were a few small mistakes but overall it went really well. I play a who and I am also a water friend in one scene. Tonight is opening night and amazingly I am not one little bit nervous. I have had fun in this production and I will be very sad when it ends. The main story is based off the book by Dr. Seuss called Horton hears a Who. The main characters are Horton, The Cat in the Hat and the Mayor of Whovill's son JoJo. In the story Horton hears the whos on their speck of dust calling for help. He puts the dust on a clover and vows to protect it at all costs. The inhabitants of the jungle say he's crazy because they can't hear the whos. The story continues on with JoJo being sent off to war and three monkeys stealing the clover with the dust speck on it and Horton being sent off to the circus McGurcas while sitting on a nest with an egg in it. Now, do I have your curiosity aroused? Well, thats all you'll get from me! you'll just have to come see the production or read the book Horton hears a Who by Dr. Seuss. Well, that's all folks!

Angel
My dogs name was Angel. We got her when she was about one or two. She was a mix between a lab and a cockerspanial (I think) and she was a light brownish whiteish color. I loved her so much. Unfortunately I never took enough time out of my day to take care of her. I fed her, watered her, brushed her and spent about five minuets with her every day and i used to walk her occasionally and i gave her a bath about once every three or four months. But that wasn't enough. I should have spent an hour or two every day with her and walked her every day and given her a bath twice a month. Last Thursday when I came home from play rehearsal at around 10 mom said that Angel wasn't acting normal. I went outside that night and didn't find her so the next morning I found her. Sure enough she was sick. Very sick. I gave her a bath that morning and tried to get her to get up and walk around but she wouldn't. Mom scheduled an appointment for her at the vet but we couldn't get one till this coming Wednesday. Saturday at around fiveish I went out side to check on her and she was dead. She was only abut 9 years old. I cried for about three hours and we buried her in our backyard at about seven. I loved that dog and I pray she is in a better place.
