2 years ago today I was in the hospital, groggy as hell after life changing surgery. A few weeks later, the pathology revealed stage 1 cancer. The surgery got it all & no other treatment was needed. I have five tiny scars from it that are largely gone now. But I know they're there. And it's OK.

In NYC. Going to see a guy about a strange and unusual plant. NO, I'm NOT gonna feed it! I'm a former Audrey, I know better!

Re: rapists. I'm reminded of one of my mom's favorite curses to bestow upon those who commit that act. Namely, "hope they die with a hard on and both arms paralyzed." Now let the fire and brimstone rain.

Good. I think women need to be more bossy, entitled and hysterical. I think women should be raining fire and brimstone upon rapists. Good for you if you do.

So how's your day, Diva, you ask? Celebrating our 12th wedding anniversary. Visiting IKEA for the first time. And while sitting outside their cafeteria, find out that Tim Curry has left us. Well, fuck. Godspeed, sir. You really are to remain with us in spirit anyway.

Probably the best opening night gift I ever received. Handmade by an actor friend who has since passed. Got it out yesterday to relax and reminisce about what is my favorite musical role, hands down.

Just for the record, this is not a recent production. Last show I did was right around the start of COVID. Little Shop was way before that.

After a side trip to Arizona (thanks USPS), my newest piece of Fiestaware arrived today! This is an exclusive pattern (Constellation) for tge FTCCO. So pretty--the photos don't do it justice!

I fucking LOVE the musical CATS. Which is all in the news because of The Jellicle Ball. I wanted to be Grizabella SO. DAMN. MUCH. The one time I auditioned for it, the company couldn't cast it. I feel like my ship has sailed & I'm up in my feels. Dammit. 😪😪 (Yeah, I had a sad.)

I have a traveling plush Squidward that goes on our road trips. We're taking one this coming weekend. He couldn't dive into the bag fast enough.

He and his whole cabinet need to go now. Not tomorrow or two weeks from today. NOW.

Just because he backed off shouldn’t stop efforts to remove him. He is dangerous and cannot be left in power.

Ok, it's more than three: Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney, Martha in Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Lady M in the Scottish Play, Violet in August:Osage County

I do love #mirrorball inspired things. This is part of the #Easter decor in my cubicle. It brings me so much joy! (Several coworkers find it cool, too.🙂)

Earlier tonight I said that if I ever sing Green Day's "American Idiot" in public, I will NOT censor the lyrics. And shortly after that, my punk rock guitarist friend says to me, "we need to make that happen."

My husband and I met 36 years ago today (1/19). He did this painting, based on a photo he took, as a surprise. Thank you @rudypanucci_popcult. I ❤️ ❤️ ❤️ it, but I ❤️ you even more.

The cruelty of the Iceholes makes me sick. The compassion of people trying to help and comfort a brutalized 17-year-old American citizen gives me hope. It can't be said often enough: ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE. ABOLISH ICE.

ICE kidnap 17-year-old U.S. citizen working at Target then dump him bleeding and crying miles away in a Walmart parking lot… 🤬
