The Get To Do List #5

and that's show business, baby <3

Last week was a phenomenal week complete with the most incredible trip and a touch of a crash out professionally, but it’s a new week! Very sad to leave Ann Arbor behind, but as for this week, I have been feeling like I have a big trip planned on the calendar. Like I am going somewhere. Like every day is packed to the brim.

And then I realized, while there is some added work, it is because this week is the 25th anniversary of Gilmore Girls and it is SHOWGIRL week. GILMORESHOWGIRL WEEK as we can call it!!!! Like Lauren Graham is getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on the release day of SHOWGIRL?! This week is so me coded.

And probably you, too.

So let’s talk about the get to dos!

If you missed it, here’s how I trick my own little brain—

What a week ahead!!! It’s all show business!!!
