Aloha, Rose ~~
I hope your retreat went well, and that you're feeling well and rested.
Since arriving in New York, I've mostly been teaching summer school and taking graduate classes, but I've also been putting my name "out there" in the theatre community, since performing has always been an interest of mine.
And guess what?!?
I'm doing backup music for a stage performance this week, last weekend I was in a local TV commercial (if it goes national, I'll let you know!), and for the next two nights I'm scheduled to be an extra in a movie being filmed in Chinatown. Another company also wants me to be in their (national) commercial, but I'm not sure I want to -- long story.
Anyhoo -- I really didn't expect to get much attention, yet here it is, and it's a blast!
None of this has been paying work, and that's OK, because it all looks good on my résumé. But here's my question -- do you see this kind of response continuing? I don't want to give up teaching (unless Hollywood calls, BIG TIME -- LOL), but I sure wouldn't mind "moonlighting" as a performer.
Any thoughts?
Peace & Love --

Update:
A week later, and the performance scene continues to sizzle with new opportunities! (No teaching job yet, though ..... *sighs*)
I've felt all along that I was "led" here -- but maybe it was for something completely different than what I'd anticipated?
I dunno -- it's all just ..... well ..... weird.
