โจthird anniversary | ten years together โจ
We got married in a Theatre. This might come as a shock to some of my friends but me and my beautiful, generous, intelligent, not-on-social-media, hilarious wife just celebrated 10 years together - and three of those weโve been legally married! โค๏ธ As an immigrant I wasnโt sure this would ever happen - for a long time I wasnโt even allowed to stay here with her for longer than 90 days at a time. Weโve managed to not kill each other thru countless productions we mouted together at Rogue Machine (she was my boss for years!), the pandemic, break ups and reunions. We have travelled together across the globe, to far off places and weโve never stopped having adventures, being kind to each other and giving each other the room to grow.
From the moment I met this woman I knew this was it. I have never been in love as crazy as with her, and I have never met anyone with a heart as big as hers. Sheโs cool, sheโs silly, sheโs wicked smart and she is my best friend.
Thank you for an incredible love story, my Boo. โค๏ธ
๐ ๐ฅฌ๐ฅ Morning harvest at home. I did not realize how much animal petting is involved in my every day lol. I am truly grateful this is the life I get to live. Nothing beats waking up and gathering your own breakfast while being helped by your cats and dogs on a sunny day in your yard.
Next year: more root vegetables, less cherry tomatos๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐ ๐
You know youโre in good company when you schedule your Eclipse viewing day six months in advance (Thanks to Amanda for organising that, I just show up). ๐๐๐๐๐ It was super cool and we had the best day ever complete with a bakery visit, car karaoke and the after buzz of American Crossword Tournament. ๐ฅฐ
I often get asked why I moved from the big city Los Angeles life to middle of nowhere Vermont. This is the short answer. I love the hustle and sounds of the city. The excitement and the buzz, the restlessness of colourful souls looking for the next wave to catch. With you or without you, itโs alive, its heart beating with every honk, highway veins offering unlikely meetings.
But this? The crisp air, the clear skies, the simple joy these dogs experience just being outside with me. The precious gift of just being in the moment, being bored, taking walks behind my house through lush forests and bubbling creeks. This is the life my soul needs day to day to thrive, whatever era I might be in currently. I still love the big city and spend weeks in L.A. and NYC - and at the end of it, I can come home to these wet nosed fur machines and just be. ๐๐
I think they call this part getting old.๐ฅน
@roguemachinetheatre Sweet 16 Brunch Party! I missed seeing all these amazing people, Actors, designers, producers and friends. We are continuing to bring powerful Theatre to Los Angeles and remembering to lift each other up along the way. To our 16th Season!โจ
I could not do it without our AD and Heroes director @thalattaaaa who has been game for all my crazy ideas, @grandparamon who helps me make them come true and everyone else: it truly takes a Villiage. ๐ฅน๐ #roguemachinetheatre #RMT16 #latheatre #heroesofthefourthturning
The holidays were beautiful. Lots of love, laughter, a trip to NYC, museums, great food and friends and family. โค๏ธ And our first obligatory cheesy family Christmas tree picture (a Slovak tradition hated by every child). ๐
Happy 2nd birthday, Nova aka the Monster. โฅ๏ธ You sure have brought a lot of love into my life. And you have taken the life of 17 computer chargers and countless iphone chargers. You were free but made up for it in $$ of cables. Love you. ๐โฅ๏ธ #novathecat #birthdaygirl #catsofinstagram #kittytocat
