Lots of catered events today but I was a good girl. The food was pretty great too but I tracked and I also made smart decisions. I even grabbed for the bottled water instead of the diet coke.
So today our company hired Chicago City Limits to come and teach us improv as a team building exercise. Oh lord it was interesting. I was doing improv with a lot of very literal sales people, my CFO, and a few other very corporate minded people. I want to say that I had a blast because I’m not a biased acting snob. I mean, I suck at improv but one thing is, I don’t give a shit about making a fool out of myself. In fact, the crazier it gets, the more fun I have. Aye yai yai, this experience was not fun at all. My ideas were cut and everyone was practically writing lines for themselves. No one wanted to play. No bueno.
Tomorrow I am going to write everything I eat down. I may not have time to calculate the points until later in the evening but it well help me to stay honest. I will also wake up earlier so I'm not rushed.
Quote of the Day
"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
-Mark Twain
Ugggh... there is nothing I hate more than "team building"! Good job with the bottle of water and making good decisions with your food. You're doing great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lee!
ReplyDeleteI'm not an acting snob either, but that does some lame. It would at least be nice if they tried to play fair. Who the heck is Chicago City Limits?
