Everyone ReMaine Calm

I left my phone at home today! I was completely out of touch for a whole day, all by myself in a foreign land!! Ok, don't panic. I was in Bar Harbor all day touristing. It was pretty great.


It started here. 11:15 mass at the Holy Redeemer Church in Bar Harbor. It was a delight.
This is what Catholics do. Bits were flying around the greenroom about this the night before, so it's appropriate.
I'm documenting my blueberry consumption. It's easily in the thousands...fortunately, they haven't all been in pie form (also here in ale form).
Mmm...best one yet, from Morning Glory Bakery. I've learned I prefer it cold. And without ice cream (what am I saying???).
My walk along the shore path today. I walked it three times...I had a lot of time to kill. That's a cruise ship out there. Oh those days...


I discovered today that I'm very consistent. As I walked through the touristy shops I would see a place and say, "Huh, that looks interesting," and when I walked in I would remember, "Oh right, I came here last year on the ship." I walked into almost all the same places. I know me so well! Also discovered a couple new great places...Bar Harbor Tea Company and Alternative Market. Organic trail mix and blueberry tea! Oh boy!

Had my night off on Thursday...here's what my night off looks like.
Here's how I feel about that! It really seems like I love that house behind me.
Farrell, Sam and I went for a walk yesterday and found this. The coolest tree I've ever seen. Sam: This is really the coolest tree you've ever seen? Me: We didn't all grow up in the country, Sam.

Sam and I trying to recreate our headshots in the theatre entrance.

What else? Oh right, I went to a psychic yesterday. Tarot. I've had tarot cards read three times in the last 6 months. Something about this may be throwing off my karma or something...I don't know a ton about that...but anyway, she was disturbingly accurate. And not just those things like, "So you're an actor...I see that you struggle with money." I mean specifics. So we get through the reading, which is some good, some not so good, and she wants me to buy some herbs from her. Not to delve into my reading, but suffice to say that I'm not sure how I feel about all of this. I clearly am interested...I've been getting tarot readings like they were haircuts this year (and I don't even get haircuts 3 times a year). But I still feel guilty about being too involved. I imagine what a priest would say...and I question exactly what part of it I believe. Any Catholics/Christians/monotheists out there have thoughts on this?

Alright. Enough documentation for today. Tomorrow (or thereabouts)...improv talk!
