I am going on vacation

Shocking. I know.

For the month of September, I’m going to take myself offline and try to remember what being not-busy is like. Granted, this includes Dragon*Con at the first of the month, but besides that, I’m going to just spend some time hanging out with Rob. A vacation. I’ve heard other people talk about them.

Which means–

While I’m away, I’ve got a series of “Retro Mary” posts, which are journal entries from 1994, when I was developing a new show, The Pied Piper, with Jodi Eichelberger. I wrote in my journal daily back then, so you’ll get to see what I was like when I was twenty-five.

If you want to contact me during the month of September, you’ll have to use postal mail. Again, I know it’s shocking but… if you write me a paper letter, I will write a paper letter back to you.

      1. I always have to look up what the current postal rate actually *is* when posting letters after I’ve run out of Forever stamps. I have other denominations and can usually make up a standard stamp, but have to know what we’re required to put on a letter. I think I might have to take you up on the challenge. 😉 Have a great break! I hope it’s restful and restorative. And I do so dearly wonder what that’s like. 😉

  1. My first thought was ‘she’s gonna volunteer for another marygoround so soon?’

    Have fun!

    (Hmmm, tempting to write a paper letter to see what happens, but Mary doesn’t need to be subjected to my handwriting….)

  2. Oh, this is unfortunate. I guess you didn’t get the memo that I was on my way to live with you for a month while you do this “vacation” thing. I guess I’ll have to cancel the pet and children sitter! 🙂

    On a more serious note — have a few hundred glasses of Scotch for me, enjoy your time away and I will most definitely try to write you a hand written letter with my fancy quill!

    Hugs!
