The Lie Revealed


I served the pianoman, B*lly J*el, alcohol back in the 90’s.
Yep, back in ’95. Who knew I might be considered an enabler? He came to see Phantom with his young daughter Ale*xa Ray (now a musician). He seemed to prefer the bar over the show. Hmmmm.
Here is a picture of me with another big fan of my bartending skills!

I've entered & finished two half-marathon races. Amazingly yes. Thought I'd try for one more at the end of this summer, but since the heat wave last week, I've gotten lazy. Really lazy. Yeah, be thankful there's no actual picture of me sweatin' it out! =)

I was an extra in Kick boxer 2: The Road Back and met the lead, Sasha Mitchell, who later went on to be a regular in the TV show, Step by Step.They filmed on my college campus and being a drama major, thought it would be fun to go. BORING!! I did find out that “career extras” are total weirdos!! My friend Angelique and her father went. He is a very extroverted and entertaining man and he found his way over to Sasha. We followed of course! Can't find a picture yet in the pile from college...

I spent several weeks taking dance lessons at the Am*erican Ballet Theater studios in NYC.Yeah. Not one of my brightest moments! I thought it was funny that several of you determined this one to be false! Does my profile picture just scream ungraceful / non-dancer?! You know it! If I had spent less time at Serendipity eating frozen hot chocolates I coulda been a contendah...not! Anyway, when I was an undergrad, UC Irv*ne had a singing/acting/dancing semester in NYC program so technically we just used AB*T studios as my friend Michele reminded me (she was there and danced amazingly, BTW!) Altogether it was an awesome opportunity. I was critiqued by Ut*a H*gen and Elisabeth Soderstr*m and I was a bull in a china shop dancing for well known choreographers. Totally Humiliating!







I had dinner with Ma*ura West/“Carly” from As the W*rld Turns. What an uncomfortable conversation/dinner that was! Back in 96, when she was married to her first husband (a non-famous, nice guy) he was best man at the wedding I was in. As Michele commented, her wedding! The rehearsal dinner was beautiful, the soap star...not so much. Sorry if this burst any bubbles, Krista. At least maybe her devious soap character is not a stretch for her, right?! =) No personal pictures of Maura, just a lovely picture of Michele & Tony (and Maura's ex...)

I’ve partied with the boys from Better Than Ezra down in NOLA.I’ve been to NOLA several times, thanks to my friend Angelique (partner in crime from the Kickboxer movie) living there. Although *she* has met up with Kevin & the boys several times, I never have. She was nice enough to get their autographs for me, though. The one which would have been the most fun was the lie! Most unfortunate! I did hang out with Queensryche at a post-show event though...


I wanted to be a W*orld Cup cross country skier. I lived in Norway for several years when I was growing up and absolutely loved to ski. Thought this would be the best job ever! Obviously that fell by the wayside...not so much snow here in this part of Virginia! Good grief all the snow makes this picture blinding.
Thanks for playing, everybody! Kind of fun to reminisce.
