Success! I made it to NYC and some people I met on the train said they would attend my Open Mic tomorrow in Brooklyn. I’m going to feel like a success even if they can’t make it because we had so much fun connecting yesterday.
I used to believe that success needed perfection but I believe this blog post will be a success even though I forgot to take pictures of the Daily Bitch calendar for today (and for Monday). Also, I mistakenly took the my ukulele without the strap, but I think I can still be a success tomorrow even if I’m sitting down when I’m singing “Everybody’s Somebody’s Asshole” and my protest song.
And I feel like a success because I got a ticket to see the very successful Sondheim review “Old Friends” today!
Do you see success in my images?

Here’s what I find when I search for success on YouTube.

Thanks to all who help me feel like a success, including YOU!

Enjoy it all, Ann!
It was a success, Mark!
Me and the Daily Bitch. Yesterday’s FB post: “Gee, I’m kinda wondering if ignoring climate change will just make it go away. It never worked on any of my other problems, but there’s always a first time, right?”
However, I was unsuccessful in getting a Real ID yesterday. Seems the documents that linked my current name to my birth name were not adequate. I need marriage certificates (it would take two) or a current passport. I had an expired one, showing that the government thought I was a citizen when they gave that one to me. Also was told that a Real ID is not necessary to get a passport, so will apply for a new one. And then they will believe I am a citizen? Because the gov. will take my word for it? Ahh. Bureau-crazy.
Bureau-crazy is right, Barbara.
I wish you every success, ann –
thank you so much, beth!
You’ve made it to New York, and to The New Yorker. You’ll make it there, you’ll make it anywhere!
Thanks for making my day as usual, Chris.
Lots of exciting things going on for you, Ann! I am glad.
Your support helps so much, Maureen!
