I'm leaving tonight to go to Connecticut. I'm staying with my boyfriend Steve for the night and then bringing him back to school on Monday. It should be a good time. Everything has been so crazy lately: Eddie racing again, going to Florida in February, going on a cruise in November, recording an album this month, tons of MIS(Minimally Invasive Surgery) courses coming up at work, I have surgery next month, Christmas shopping, a new term at school with new classes, trying to get in shape, getting ready for Talent America, and I'm really trying very hard to put together a benefit for needy children. My sister has a friend who slept over last night and this poor girl has no one. Her parents don't care about her. When she comes here we buy her clothes, and feed her, and take her places, because her mother doesn't do that kind of stuff for her. I just feel so bad because children are so helpless and innocent and sometimes they're not properly raised which is the reason we have so many psychos in our world. So I'm all about putting this benefit together. It gives me and other performers a chance to get up on stage and do what we love to do, and it's all for a good cause. There's so much involved in putting together this show, which is the problem, with all the things going on in my life at the moment, every spare moment I have I'm thinking about this show and what needs to be done. So far this is what I've got. I need to: Find a location, Hire a catering company, Get sponsered by Teardrop Studios to use their equipment, organize a set list, organize a list of performers, organize a list of invitees, try to get the local tv station to come out and video tape it, advertise in the local papers, create a poster to advertise the benefit, find a charity that I really want to send all the money too, and there is still so much more. The logistics of the show are what has to be done first like location, performers, how much to charge, catering, and then the rest should follow. I also have to order all the music that's going to be played that night because I don't have a live band, so it all has to be minus 1 material. There's so much work to do, so instead of sitting here talking about it I'm going to go write this list down and start figuring out deadlines and I'm gonna do it. I'll update everyone on when and where and I hope that everyone will go. Even if you don't wanna be there for me, be there for the children. This is about them, not me.
