2013...2014...and beyond!

I know many of you have been wondering where the Winskyes are going to end up. So have we! We've finally determined that for at least the next year, we will be in Florida, living in ither Tampa or Orlando, depending on where the work is (so if you need to hire a Stage Manager/Production Manager/Theatre instructor or professor/Event Planner, hit me up!). We will be back in Orlando June 25th, and in Tampa July 2 through at least the end of August. In all the packing and cleaning, I'm once again looking back.

This time last year:

My new favorite thing

Haven't tried it yet, but I know it's my favorite thing ever. It's like Rock Band, but for stage managers. Competitive cue calling? Bring it on!!

It' cold in Milwaukee

Snowing. Which was really fun for the first three minutes that I walked out of the car rental place and saw snow flurries in the street lights. I was excited, truly. Then reality set in and I remembered that there is a reason I've only lived in Florida and Hawaii.

Today is the first day of the conference. It's a pretty light day, just going to a couple of sessions. Tomorrow will be much busier. All of you living in warm weather, enjoy it!
