My mom died.

I sang at her funeral. (Okay...technically it was a memorial mass because her body wasn't there.)

I was put into a show I'd never seen or heard with five hours of rehearsal.

I stood up for myself with management.

I recorded with Alan Menken.

I took a seminar on producing.

A well-known producer said I could trail her.

I did a full-blown reading of my own play.

I received a grant to continue working on my own play.

I duetted with a long-admired and long-loved friend.

I broke up with a perfectly lovely man because he lacked curiosity and a passion for living.

I got permission from my dear superintendent to buy a DOG!

I said goodbye to a beloved friend.

99% of the time I asked for help I got it.

My apartment was renovated.

I bought another air-conditioner.

I threw/gave away about 1/3 of my belongings.

I worked and played with idols of mine.

People were kind beyond measure.

I bid adieu to a bit of my ego.

I was highly valued as an artist and my brain wasn't taken as a hindrance.

I had access to a bathtub everywhere I lived.

I overworked myself 'til I passed out.

I commuted and slept in an ICU barcalounger.

I attended the Headless Horseman Haunted Halloween Hayride.

I held someone in his 19th-20th hour of life.

I'm in a Broadway show that I love.
