On the theme of mythical creatures (continuing from the mermaid bar last week) and dragons not having outward scars (week before) this week, we have encountered a robot bank, another dragon- norwegian ridgeback (I could tell, Harry Potter 4 style), and a giant. All with homestays or at Into the Woods in Missoula.
Today was the first "day off" that Dave and I have had since... the 3rd of January. Not complaining, but we definitely still worked. Happy flippin' Valentine's day. The plus is there are several TAD teams here and we were able to go out and have a good time with people our age who we know. Down side is we leave in the morning and it's still 6 weeks until spring break, so we have a long stretch to go without any more time free.
I really am enjoying this stretch of the tour, as long and Montananous at it is... and I definitely would enjoy being back on the road again for summers to come, but I am so ready for permanence. And being here with other teams and women my age made me realize how much I miss having a female support system in my life. Touring with a man is definitely right for me, but it has been SO nice to spend time with girls for a little bit. I'm sure Dave feels the same way, opposite spectrum of course.
In other news, to keep myself on track, I have finished one application for summer job outside of MCT-
1. TOMS shoes internship in Santa Monica, CA. Long shot, totally out of my realm of expertise, but I am so interested in how it works and runs that I had to apply.
2. Northwestern Cherubs program as a faculty member (almost finished, have to edit my cover letter)
3. Twin River Theatre Company in New Jersey as a faculty member for their 3-8 grade theatre camp- still working on the cover letter for that one...
4. Director for Noble Fool Theatricals (youth theatre company) for summer or fall production, outside Chicago. This is a brand new option that I have yet to begin my application process for.
5. Stay on the road for the summer, bulk my bonus and get some more americorps financial help.
6. Move to Chicago as soon as I'm off the road.
These are the options I am weighing right now. I hope everything will just fall into place.
