2/7/15 gym class, improv class, #91 Birthday dinner with Betty

2/7/15

Stealth photo of me at Boot Camp that
my friend took unbeknownst to me

(thanks Patte)

a cool bike rack I saw in center city Philly

Today was my first Improv class at Comedy Sportz.

It is an 8 week course that teaches Improv skills.

This course introduces you to the skills of improvisation; developing basic verbal and physical communication skills by exploring spontaneity, active listening, risk-taking, story-telling, character development, and more. Learn how to improvise in a safe, non-judgmental environment where the laughter comes easy and fun is the name of the game. No prerequisite except a willingness to have fun and meet new people.

We had 12 people in our class.
(yes, I know, just FOUR in this photo)

It was a FUN time & I’m looking forward to
more Improv classes

after class I headed to Vic Sushi as I was starving!

The Clothespin Sculpture in Philly.

I always like to get this photo for neighbor Denise
who, to my amazement, has never seen it in person!

We are going to change that!

Celebrating Michael’s mom Betty’s birthday #91
