185 Snow Pants walk into a bar. The bartender says, "What'll it be?" The Snow Pants say, "We ski."

We had a show last Friday that was awesome. We've been doing pretty well with our improv. Our troupe is small, which can be difficult sometimes, but it has the advantage of more stage time with each other. This means that we're getting more and more in sync (Get it! Cause we're Kitsch In Sync!) with each other.

This is extremely important in improv - group mind. In fact, it's one of my favorite things about performing ensemble improv. It's an atmosphere of support and teamwork that is unparalleled in the real world, and yet totally possible. This can sometimes make the real world rather frustrating, but I console myself with the fact that I have improv to fall back on. Which is ironic because if I didn't have improv to show me how easy it can be, I probably wouldn't get frustrated. Hmmm ...

This may be arrogant of me too, but I also feel that I'm having a particularly good streak of performances lately too. And that always makes me feel good.

But don't worry. I'm running a 5K this Thursday. That'll bring me back down to earth.
