My week was spent GISHing for the first time ever. It’s the Greatest International Scavenger Hunt and was started by actor, Misha Collins. It’s weird and wacky and meant to get your creative, out of the box juices flowing. It was fun to be creative in a different way but if I’m being honest, my inner perfectionist was not thrilled with the event. I celebrated the end of my week of GISHing by seeing the lovely Kimmi Bitter at Northern Pine! She was back in town for the weekend before she heads east again. If you haven’t seen her yet, I highly recommend you check her out next time she comes to town.

Another highlight was watching the new Mrs. Henry music video. If you haven’t seen it yet, you can watch it here. I’m also getting super excited for my birthday shows next week! I might get a head start this week with some of the stuff we have rolling into town…
