i've been putting off writing about the ovation awards. it's hard to talk about such things and be both humble and interesting. all the cliches are cliches and all the cliches are true. i didn't win. that's cool. know who did? in my category? laurie metcalf. laurie metcalf! i grew up watching Roseanne! i mean! come on! aaand here they come: "the honor is being nominated..." "even to be in the same category with such amazing women...," you know. nobutseriously. i was so so grateful to be a name on that big shiny projection screen on that big SHINY stage. the ceremony was stunning and what a joy to be surrounded and supported by so many loving faces of the theater community that has become my true home within a home. i had a blast with my fellow echoistas (that's what we echo theater company members call each other) and my TWO dates - one is pictured with me below and the other, my friend katie, came all the way from austin, TX to be at the ceremony! plus i got to dress up in pretty clothes. here's me with date #1, one of my bestest friends, nicholas konow -- in't he hannsom?! and look! red carpet!! wheeeee!
