I became co-owner and Cat Mommy to the two greatest cat best friends ever, Willie & Waylon.











I joined the faculty of the Peoples Improv Theater (see: top row).














I lost my last living grandparent, Grandma Sargent.



















I became an Aunt (see: baby in arms, not puppets).

I Would Do The Same

This video is terrible and doesn't allow embedding, but it's the last remaining footage of this, my favorite acceptance speech. Viacom pulled all the others for copyright infringement. I threatened Happy last night that I'm going to write him a similar speech...

Opening Night

Last night, I attended Shakespeare in the Park's opening night performance of "Winter's Tale," to see my wonderful boyfriend, Happy, as the Mariner. The show is truly magical, and I was moved to tears by the sheer beauty and power of the ending.

Everything was incredible; from the staging to the music to the astonishing performances from the likes of Ruben Santiago-Hudson, Linda Emond, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Jesse L. Martin, and the brilliant comedic timing of Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Max Wright (the Dad from Alf!).

The company is doing rep and their other show is "Merchant of Venice" with Al Pacino. OMG.

Around Town



Where the...?

Sorry for the long absence. It's summer now. Thank God, we made it.

I made myself so busy and got through the darkest, rainiest months of Spring: We moved into an awesome new apartment; I helped organize the white-tie Spring Waltz for City Opera; We adopted the most beautiful and hilarious Russian Blue kitty and named him after country music legend Waylon Jennings; I met Al Pacino; I started teaching improv classes at The PIT; I "won" a trip to Cancun.

The summer just officially began and already it's packed to the brim with classes, shows, showcases, rehearsals, working part-time for Jewish Partisans, anniversaries, a temporary gym membership, more Al Pacino, wonderful visits from Happy's family, making videos, working in the Hamptons again, and the eager anticipation of the newest member of the Griffiths-DeChant clan. When will He/She arrive? And, how quickly will Boy/Girl think I am my twin sister, Her/Him's mommy?

So many questions to be answered...and so many cat videos to be posted...
