After the show we all went out to dinner. One of my favorite yes's from this week happened at Red Robin with Mrs. Collins. WE were all reminiscing about our year in drama and, in a passing comment, I said " I wish I could track down my third grade teacher, Mr. Mills, and thank him for introducing me to theater. If it wasn't for him I wouldn't be here." All of a sudden Mrs. Collins got really excited and exclaimed "I'm friends with him on Facebook! Can I post on his wall for you?" This was one request I was happy to agree to. She made me take a picture to go with my quote and about five minutes later he commented back. Mr. Timothy Mills is one of my favorite people in the whole world. He introduced me to preforming with his little piano and his dramatized readings of "Hank the Cowdog." I had no experience with the arts before him, and he is the reason I want to spend the rest of my life teaching theater.
The rest of the evening was kind of like last night except we had monopoly and oven pizza to go with our angsty teenager music. It might sound like a very simple night, but it was a really great one.
