I'm leaving Chicago in 12 days to board the NCL Spirit cruiseship as a Second City performer. Translated to improv: I'm going on a boat. Every improvisor in Chicago knows what that phrase means. But few people know what it's really like, so people tend to start these clever photo blogs to document their trip...and here I am. The picture above represents one of the best parts of my office day. This black bean dip is incredible. It's something I'll miss dearly while I'm at sea. Maybe I'll steal away to a Whole Foods while in port each week and smuggle snacks back onboard so I'll have some alternative to the cavalcade of cruise food. I'll keep a lock box filled with Larabars and tuna packets.
Now, to say this dip is the best part of my day is not to say my job is bad. It's the opposite. I've been blessed to work with awesome people in what may be the best "temp" job ever for the past 8 months. Leaving them to live aboard a cruiseship is harder than it sounds. I wake up each weekday morning annoyed at the early hour, but otherwise pleased to be going where I go, and that cannot be said by every day-job-holding actor. Thanks, SAMA.
12 days. Blog officially begun. I couldn't wait any longer.
