Tomorrow is the big one......It is our first big time presentation in front of folks I don't know. Having said that, I can't wait. I have always been like that. Opening night could not come soon enough as far as I was concerned. I always just wanted to be on the stage doing the thing. For those who know me, this might be a strange thing to find out about me. I have a softer voice than most folks. I always worked on projection of my voice. I know I can have volume, but making it work has sometimes been a challenge for me. My neighbor in Hamilton says that everyone in the neighborhood knew I could be loud. Having kids will do this to a person. At any rate, tomorrow, I get to stand and speak about things dear to me, and things I know are important for folks to hear. No one wants to talk about death. The industry knows it, and has made it their business to keep folks from exorcising their rights under the law. In Illinois, the industry has lobbied to have the law change in 2009 so that we no longer have a say as to who can handle our body in death. That is so not right. It is so wrong, I wonder why there are not riots in the street, but then again......no one wants to talk about death. They can do what they want and most of us follow along because we don't know we can do something different. So, I am fired up.
