Rosanne In The City: October

October seems to have come and gone so fast! Work has been extremely busy and has made keeping up with classes a bit challenging. I need to somehow find a way to manage my time better. I'm not making enough time to rehearse and get the most out of this amazing experience. It's been taking a bit of a toll on me. I'm struggling a bit with being truly affected with emotions like anger, etc. I'm realizing it's because I'm so used to being rational, assessing crazy situations and fixing them. For example: I saw a guy get hit by a car while driving bbefore I moved here. I was the first person on the scene. I pulled over, took a deep breath, walked towards him to see if I could do anything and called 911. I couldn't do anything because he was too mangled and couldn't be moved. A few moments later a couple pulled over and the girl started screaming, crying and running with reckless abandon through the street. I need to let myself experience things more like that crazy girl.:) My acting instructor recommended that all of us go to therapy. I called 10-12 therapists, but none of them are taking new patients. That was rejecting and would make good comedy.

I'm getting ready for work and was expecting it to rain today. However, it's snowing!!! My first snow day since moving here has arrived too soon!!

Mom, thanks for this really warm comforter!

There's an I Love Lucy Museum!

Wow, even the trash cans have a cause!

This is the ridiculous line at Trader Joe's to pay for groceries! There were about 50 people in line and that's normal! I haven't seen any self serve lines at grocery stores. Or Vegas prices.:(

Thinking of my brother. I want to eat here with my brother and Mom.

This is a mannequin in a window near my apartment. Hmm...

View from Starbucks in the Trump Towers. This is one of the locations I feel most at home. Being in the Trump Towers feels like being in a beautiful casino like the Bellagio.
