to-dos.

i love lists. i am a lister. there's something about pysically writing or typing something that makes it real and organized and able to be accomplished. and so without further ado, my summer to-do list:

1. shakespeare in the park
2. take a vacation to peterborough: lie on the beach at cunningham, eat bagels, drink outside, see plays, re-live high school, etc.
3. perfect at-home summer drinks (cocktails and smoothies)
4. keep at it with this blogging business
5. read books! (always taking suggestions - i have some long train rides in my future)
6. start the astoria supper club with the ladies. find new, wonderful restaurants in the neighborhood so i can stop always eating at sanford's.
7. organize myself as an actor: get new headshots, perfect a songbook, collect new monologues
8. be on the ball with pipeline, my theater company, as we launch into our THIRD season!
9. see a bunch of plays.
10. really do summer in new york: governor's island, the met rooftop, outdoor concerts (sara bareilles in august!), movies in bryant park, picnics, the astoria pool, etc.

i can't wait. now if only it wasn't so oppressively hot all the time.




ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it.  -russel baker
