Yeah, you guys! With no Gossip Girl episodes to keep me on the straight and narrow with posting, I am a total wayward child!
The past couple weeks have been pretty busy, getting a lot of personal administrative (and some creative) stuff out of the way before I disappear into six weeks of 50-hour work weeks! I am “balancing” two jobs: UES summer camp teacher/counselor and Downtown theater accountant. It gets a little crazy like this every once in awhile, but I’ll gladly emerge from this whirlwind with a slightly bigger pile of cash than I had before (ESPECIALLYINTHISECONOMY).
And not only has my work/life ratio been dramatically – albeit temporarily – shifted, I’ll also be attending more weddings this year than I have in the last three years combined! I hear that this is only the beginning - that I should look forward to several more weddings a year as (my peers and) I travel unwillingly through my late twenties. That means (my peers and) I will have less than two and a half years left to make fun of people in their 30s…. Oy, that’s mean, isn’t it? It’s pretty awful. Well, at least that means that will I probably deserve what’s coming to me, which I’ve heard includes: increasingly slower metabolism, increasingly eye cream-resistant wrinkles, increasingly valid anxiety about whether or not I’ll ever reach my full potential as a human being, and increasingly pathetic realizations that my boobs have (probably?) ALREADY reached their full potential as boobs.
Plus, there’s nothing like working with little kids – BORN IN 2002 and 2003!!!!! – to really drive the point home that I am a grown up. And that I should probably not be eating these fruit roll ups for dinner at 9:21pm at night.

If you think you’re old now, wait a few years
It is pretty funny, I’m already almost 30 years old, and many of the extremely successful comedians I’ve been interviewing are only around 20 years old. Nah well, props to them for making it happen early!
