And then a couple of months later I ended up living out of my bedroom just to protect my family.
Both my adult kids were there and we would gather on the deck and that went on for about nine months until I got vaccinated.
But I I've referred back to that story and that experience so many times.
It's just yeah, incredible.

What were we thinking?
But beyond that, just the excitement, unfortunately, one of the disadvantages of going last was that I didn't get to hear the performers the way I would have wanted to.
The people that preceded me, I would have loved to have been sitting in the audience hearing them, but I did get to hear them from the green room.
and that building sense of excitement and also the idea of I'd better not screw this one up.
Yeah.

I don't want it to be a checklist.
I want it to be natural the way I saw like my former boss doing it.
He turned out to actually have theater experience.
