Today is my last day of work at the best job I've ever had. I'ma miss this place.

Sometimes, we have friends. And they come visit us. This is such a gentleman, and I adore him.

And here, some of the ones who made the fall amazing and this trip worth any price. Conservatory bros forever, yo.

The lovely friends, new and old, that I hung out with this past Fourth of July. Instead of seeing fireworks in the damp, awful humidity that was our holiday evening, we stayed in side and watched the Ducktales movie. AMURICA.

Last night, I was working a catered event until very late, essentially acting as house manager/bouncer. At the end of the night, one of the caterers was sweet enough to put together this little meal for me. Happy of the day: random acts of kindness. Practice them.

Bad: getting locked out of my car, and in a truly imbecilic fashion too. Good: having someone come pronto to break in for me so I didn't have to take to the driver's side window with a hatchet. I give you Nathan, my automotive hero.

Arts and crafts with a purpose today, done with my tiny ward for her daddy. She was more the designer element - I was the grunt labor.

RAFFI. If you did not have Raffi when you were growing up as a kid, then I am truly sorry for you. Best children's singer ever.

Last night, we had a dance rehearsal for the show I'm currently in. I did serious tap and ballet for the first time in years - and it was so much fun that I can't wait for the next one. (This is the troupe I'm dancing with!)

I have always wanted to have a surprise birthday party, but it's not really one of those things you can plan or even ask for, else the whole point is ruined. Last night, my fabulous, wonderful, amazing friends managed to completely take me by surprise with a belated birthday party. I can't remember the last time I was so shocked or had so much fun and I can't believe how much love these guys showed me last night.
And this is the person responsible:
My boyfriend has aspirations to evil mastermind, hand to God. But in the best possible way.

Today is the one-year anniversary of when my boyfriend and I first starting going out. In this past year, he has been there for me again and again and has supported me unquestioningly and unconditionally through some of the hardest times I've ever been through. He's a talented actor, a gifted writer, an incredible friend, a wonderful boyfriend, and the most amazing guy I know, and I'm so thankful that he's in my life.
<3 Jules.

My family took my boyfriend and me out to dinner last night to celebrate my birthday! We went to my favorite seafood restaurant and engaged in the family sport of banter the whole time. (No one banters like my family does.) And there was cake afterwards too. Good times.

This man is Amiri Baraka. He is a civil rights activist who was contemporaries with Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, and a goddamn phenomenal spoken-word poet and playwright as well. Last night I got a chance to sit for two hours in my old college theatre and listen to this man lay out the sorry state of affairs in the world for me, and it was breathtaking. I mean, I've written papers about this man, and here he was in front of me. Unbelievable. I got tunnel vision.
Do yourself a favor - look up "Somebody Blew Up America" on Youtube, find the version of him speaking it. Listen and use it.

It's my birthday today! And this is a picture of the absolutely decadent chocolate birthday cake Jules and his family surprised me with our last night in Puerto Rico. I love surprises and I'm enough of a nerd to still be excited about my day.
