Wild (and Crazy) Oats

When I have all of my Quaker clothes on including the jacket and huge bonnet, I call it my elephant outfit. It helps when I sway back and forth lazily with my arms dangling. There was a review of Wild Oats today in the Register Guard that had unappealing title ("Wild Oats not as wildly funny as it could be") and then proceeded to mostly give a plot summary of the show. Here is the only thing it said about me: "Meredith Ott is sweet, serious, and intelligent as Lady Amaranth". Not too bad. Tomorrow morning we have a really early show for high schoolers. I'm not sure yet how they will react to it. I think the show is certainly entertaining no matter what age you are so hopefully that will hold true and nothing will be too entirely far over their heads. The costumes and set are beautiful and, I would think, very fun to look at. This website has pictures should anyone be interested. This guy also took my little headshot and for as few pictures as he took of me, I think it turned out pretty well. http://www.cliffcoles.comAs far as the rest of my life, I feel like I am truckin along and just trying to keep putting one foot in front of the other right now. I did get a letter today telling me my Graduate Teaching assignments for next year. That was exciting and great news because not only is my tuition waived for all of next year, but I actually will be making just over $700 per months and get benefits. Hell yeah, it's about time. Very good news indeed.
