Doggy Daycare Drama Coach
Some people are sports people, some people are theatre people. Hear me out. Some people are sports people, some people are theatre people. This is a fact.

GOOD NEWS! Life Is Back To Abnormal!
This was taken at DragCon last weekend (or the weekend before that? Gosh, time is flying) which is why there’s a pink carpet behind me. Duh! So like I said, this week is flying by! I’ve been helping out at the studio, despite catching a milder version of my boyfriend’s cold. This weekend is…

GOOD NEWS! And Rain Will Make The Flowers Grow
Hello, Friday! Our current weather is this: golden sunshine, POURING rain, and rumbles of thunder. That’s…pretty much a great metaphor for how my week has been: tempestuous but hopeful.

GOOD NEWS! You Don’t NEED Any Help!
This week had been a total blur! Like, I’ve been at the studio since Tuesday, and I basically come home, have a glass of rosé, and fall asleep in an awkward position on the couch. Managed to give myself big blisters on my hand, which is awesome, and I carried a giant foam roll around…

Good News! YOU Think You’re Helping
Wow it’s FRIDAY AGAIN?!? I really can’t believe it! Maybe the “holiday” messed me up into thinking it couldn’t possibly be Friday already. I put “holiday” in quotes because I’ve been working every single day since last you heard from me, except for the Fourth, which I spent having a raging stomachache and running errands (which…

GOOD NEWS! I’m “So Emotional,” Baby!
‘Morning! Yer looking at the mysterious side-toe bruise that appeared last week and still hasn’t fully dissipated. I have no idea how to even GET a bruise in this spot. Please don’t tell me that side-toe-bruises are an ominous sign of like, a deadly disease or something. This week has been a blur…

Bad Dog
All dogs go to Heaven, don’t they? If that’s true, maybe there’s a special section for Bad Dogs. Do you know what Bad Dog Heaven is like? Bad Dog Heaven is made of laps. LAPS. Laps to jump on! Laps to curl up in! Laps to stand on while swatting…

Good News! At Least The Tardigrades Will Survive
Last week came in like a lion, and it’s going out like a lamb! It’s June, now. Holy crap. I completely didn’t see this month coming. #Sad? As you can see from my photo above, I went to the MoMA this week after my therapy session! This one is called L’Atelier, or “The Studio,”…

The Barkchelorette
Oh hi, it’s me. Copper. I know you’ve only just met me in Episode 1 of Season 13 of The Bachelorette, but I’ve known Rachel Lindsay for a long time. We’ve spent more time together than Rachel & Fred did during their camp days. Rachel told Fred, “You always remember the bad ones.” But I’m not one…

Good News…Same As It Ever Was….
Ok. I’m freaking out. You’re freaking out. I just remembered what day it was and here I am, in front of all this uplifting *CoNtEnT* trying to justify it. I started doing this when I felt overwhelmed by the news. I guess keeping it up is most important when it’s hard. When you’re like,…

Wow. So, yeah. I was in California and it was so nice, we stayed an extra day! No, actually, we missed our flight home, but that’s another blog/story. Point is, we made it back to NYC in time to see The Skin of our Teeth at Theatre For A New Audience, because I helped work on the…
