Sometimes I have to do 2 or 3 parties per day

 

Eating squirrel between shows in the dressing room

And that is when I really start to hate people.  They keep talking and asking questions and hogging my wine.  But finally, when they all leave me to be, I get to go backstage and eat food.  

I was in the middle of stitching myself a new dress and I had to take a break to eat some food and someone who was stalking me in the dressing room suddenly snuck out and took this photo.

I had to wrestle her to the ground, but then when I saw the photo, I was so pretty and dewy fresh, I decided to show everyone my little back stage home away from home.

My first Theater on the tour.

 

Working the street corner outside the Invisible Theater

This is me standing out front of the Invisible Theatre in Tucson, Arizona, which is only 3 miles from the sun.  
I had a blast talking about food storage with people that had actually been to Tupperware Parties way back in the 50’s.  Hell, one gal even went to a Tupperware Party in 1949.  That is like the very first Tupperware Party ever.  It might even be the first PARTY ever.  

I think if you read the bible, they even talk about 1949 in Epsicalopolous Versus 1-14.  That is about a week after God created the earth and the dinosaurs from that Movie, Jurassic Park.

Welcome to Des Moines, Iowa

Hey Hookers,

I am more exhausted than a Mall Santa Claus after a visit from 75 kids from Juvenille Hall on December 24th.  And probably just as sticky.  I have been doing back to back shows and traveling and packing and unpacking.  Lordy, sometimes I miss prison cause it was just easier to stay in one place for awhile.

But I dont want you to think that I am not having fun!!!  Now that my first stop of Tucson, AZ is under my belt, I am starting to get used to this all.  I had a blast in beuatiful Tucson.  Hotter than the inner thighs of a Russian sprinter in the 2008 Games, I was happy for any air conditioning I could get.

Well all of that has changed now as I come to the great MidWest and experince what a real October is like.  It is cold and a bit rainy and filled with Pumpkins as the next big Holiday draws closer. 

And tonight marks my big opening here at the Civic Center’s Temple Theatre.  I have 2 glorious weeks here and I am ready to enjoy every single second of it.

And as I now have a little more time, you can rest assured that I am going to be here much more often updating this blog with my adventures.

Today was a day filled with Press interviews, and kind of a really fun milestone for me.  I was in the car going from radio interveiw to TV interview and I heard the ad for the show on the radio.  Well, I had to move my hand back into the passenger seat and squeal a little when I heard it.  The driver was a little sad at that moment, but it was his job to pay attention to the road anyway.  But here I was listening to people talk about the show on the radio. I felt like Carrie Underwood must have felt the first time she heard her single, “Jesus take the wheel, cause I am way too drunk to drive” on the radio.  It was a truly speical moment for me. 

And it happened right here in Des Moines.

I HATE MOVING

OK hookers,

I am so sorry for the delay.  I am trying to pack up my kids and get the hell out of Dodge so i can get this show on the road, literally.  I will be posting much more frequently once I get into rehearsals in NY and I will get back to y’all personally when I have a second to breathe.

Just to answer the common emails and questions.

I am not doing a show in New York at this time. I am just there for rehearsals.  I wish I had time to do a show, but I dont.

Eventually I will be back to NY with the show, but it is going to take a few years I think. Just keep checking back on the tour schedule site and we will update it as new dates are added and dont worry, when I come back to manhattan, You’ll know!!!

Thanks everyone for your support.  I am so anxious to get this tour started but there is still alot of packing and moving to do.  I think I packed my son last week, I cant find him and I heard rustling for a few days in the corner, but it was a box that was hard to get to.  I threw some candy and a Hungry man frozen dinner at the sound and it stopped, so either my kid is dead or a raccoon is feasting on Salisbury steak!

Talk at y’all soon

Dixie
