I was looking at the board on my desktop (which is actually a laptop with a monitor) and wondering why we arent on facebook on my phone.
but then i thought about
1- the dumpster fire that is facebook
2- the community we have created here.
i found "all that chat" way back in 2001 when i was cast in the ensemble of Overture Productions production of "the bakers wife" in Boston back in 2001 with Judy Kuhn. I was 18 and a freshman in college and i thought i was going to be an actor, except that when it came time for auditions, i couldnt be bothered to learn my material, so now i work in finance. not the point.
i was so excited to find my name on a board anywhere: it didnt matter that i hadnt heard of this board, i was on a board somewhere. that experience (with Michael Kruetz, David Foley Jr, and the incredible Mary Callanan) was one of the greatest in my life. And it helped me to find this board, which has been with me for 23+ years.
A shout out to all those that have been here for 20+ years. in a small way, you have helped form the maladapted adult that i am |
