Sydney 2025

Image
 Our Sydney Adventure started on June 20, 2025, and finished on June 24, 2025. Over these four days, I was fortunate enough to spend time at SupaNova in Sydney. I was lucky enough to be graced with the presence of Travis Willingham, which, believe me, I was very grateful for. This experience had been a long time coming, as I had been waiting a mammoth 15 years to meet Travis.  Aside from meeting Travis at SupeNova, I didn't purchase many items. I only bought myself a red Minnie Mouse, which these days is tough to come by. Other than this, at SupaNova itself, I also bought food. I was lucky enough to spend my holiday with the lovely Sofia Martinez and the mighty Julia Marr. Now, of course, we have been friends as well as co-workers, and sometimes when I go on holiday, it's a very fine line to balance on. However, 80% of this interaction is positive, and 20% of the time, it usually involves teasing, making jokes, or doing something to someone. But, at the end of the day, Sofia...

Blue Roo's Laughing Out Loud Friday the 13th & 14th June 2025

 Laughing Out Loud was a bit of a different experience for me because there were no script involved.  So basically, the show was made up of different acts involving a lot of improvisations. Overall, the show went for about an hour in length but getting to that polished hour of improvisations was a task to behold. It was a challenging because to me, the cast was a geat group of individuals - which I will give a shout out to later- but it seems to me that we had different levels of improvisation experience. So for some of the cast, it took a longer amount of time to perfect a scene - which is not always a bad thing, especially when it comes to improvisations, as they are meant to be as spontaneous as possible. I certainly did it to the best of my ability but I wouldn't say my performance was flawless.  In this performance I think a shout out should go to Oliwia Suchocki for a very outstanding and memorable performance across the whole weekend! Through my eyes she probably d...

Happy 59th Birthday (Angela Valentine)

 Well, well, well! We find ourselves here again. Unbeknownst to most people, it's been three years since I wrote a blog on your actual birthday. Actually, this one is two days late, but 😺 I am so jealous of John's holiday with you in New Zealand. It's a holiday that I have always dreamed of. I hope you enjoyed your day in Wanaka. Now, we get to the fun part. As for me, I have been busy writing Angela and Murray story and sequels - which are as follows: What happened to Kathryn. Physically Windy Cindy.  Shopping Shannon. Angela, the legendary carer. Murray the master electrician.  I'm unsure in what order the final two will be, but I know I will complete the first three in that order. The other funny thing is I did not see this series would be so big. At first, I was only really thinking of you and Murray, but then, I felt I had to find a way to include Kathryn , Cindy and Shannon; otherwise, I would have felt very greedy keeping you all to myself. But, alas, this is ...
