How does this happen?

All of the aerialistas agree, Germany is making us fat.  Okay, maybe not just Germany, but the insane schedule that was production week.  We never saw the light of day and were moving around like jet lagged zombies (except cuter) on the stage, being placed in this scene or that.  No training or stretch time....then...wapow!  Showtime and performance.  For all of us this was absolutely way less physical activity than we are used too, but far more fatiguing.  Plus, every morning, two crates of bread were brought in to keep us going.  uggh.  I don't think I want to even look at another pepita roll or kaiser bun.
This morning was our first "normal" morning.  I was blessed to wake up without an alarm, have a cup of cowboy coffee that Sara (our early morning riser) makes and leaves on the stove for the rest of us, leisurely drink said cup, and then take off for a run.  True bliss.  I have found two suitable running routes so far, and today's was my favorite.  As close to a "natural" area as I think we will find by foot.  Beautiful fall foliage ont he trees and Oh my God!  I saw other joggers.  First time. My body is responding well already to the rest and activity, and my neck and hips are finally starting to loosen up and pop their normal noises.  Hopefully my tummy will start feeling better soon.  Better for me and better for Bridget when I'm not farting on her mid-act.
Now time to grab a snack and stretch out before donning the wig and makeup for tonight's early show.  After the show, the whole cast will go out for supper and we get to read the critical reviews from the premier night that will go out in Monday's paper.
I finally got some batteries for the camera and will be posting pics as soon as I get to taking them.
love Jenn
