I'm an admin. asst. to a Captain for pete's sake, yet I am the lowest pay grade employee in our department.

Go Lady Brave. Represent all scorpios!

damn, that actually sounds good. I'm surprised I never heard of it, I love sci-fi shows.

just a thought, but I wish they would bring back quantum leap...I loved that show.

Thanks for the encouragement. Funny thing is, this Major really likes me and calls me constantly for help and sings my praises to everyone. It's already been brought to her attention, but for whatever reason she hasn't done anything about it.

Anyone who knows me though, knows I won't sit quietly. I'm never disrespectful, but I have no problem speaking my mind. I worked in the court system 8 years and had to correct Judges and DA's now and then. So I'm definately not afraid to stand up for what I think is right.

That's always a plus.
Let us know how you do.

Never cross a scorpio. We are extremely passionate about what we believe in.

Major drama fan. I better be, since I'm the drama director at my church. I didn't get into it until about 10 years ago. I always considered myself a singer. I never thought of myself as an actor, but once I got the opportunity, it just came naturally. Of course I'm a ham anyway and I've always been good at mimicking people.

Same, I did a lot of plays in high school and college, and in different theaters around DC.

Looking back, I wish I had done that, but I didn't know I had the ability then. I've attended a few drama workshops and conferences over the years, but I still have a lot to learn. I'd like to do more improv stuff, but I find it somewhat intimidating.

I was in an improv group in college. I thought it was intimidating when I started but it was a lot of fun.

I, ironically, feel more comfortable in front of big crowds. Like if I have to give a presentation to 5 people or 500 people then I'd rather be 500. So being on a stage always felt kind of relaxing to me. Plus it was a good change from playing sports the rest of the year.
