Your life seems to only get more interesting, exciting and inspiring as you choose to be fully engaged each and every day. I truly believe that that is God's intention for all of us (and we're all God's children). I discovered your blog this afternoon and honestly hope that God will grant me the experience of being in the audience of 33 Variations Thursday night at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre. I've never been to New York and while I've seen several Broadway productions, I've always dreamed of being in the audience of a New York theatre watching a live play on Broadway. 33 variations sounds brilliant with the intertwining sounds of Bethoven's 33 musical variations with the dialogue of the play. I hope I get to witness your appearance in the final performance of the first run of such a unique production. I was deeply moved by your biography - thank you for sharing your story with such candor and honesty. I look forward to reading about the next Act. Best of luck at the Tony Awards - I really hope you win! Bobby Thank you for being such a wonderful role model by staying engaged all the way through Act 3.

Your new play sounds fantastic. My wife and I recently vacationed at Squam Lake in New Hampshire (the filming location of "On Golden Pond"). Our tour guide, Cindy, gave us a guided boat tour of the filming locations on the lake. The old cabin is still there along with the gazebo. The marina still looks the same (where Norman gasses up the old Chris Craft). Cindy said that she was a little girl growing up on the lake and saw you practicing your back flips for the movie. On Golden Pond is one of my favorites along with Electric Horseman and China Syndrome. Rich Jane,

I especially love reading about your years in NYC. I was living there (13 years) when you were living in France. I went to Paul McGregor for my "shag" cut because we all knew that he was the best, just as you did. (..."she flies him to Paris, First Class, to cut her hair.") He was worth it. Best haircut ever for that time. Will keep reading. As I said on Twitter, you really should consider trying my all natural, magic whole food juice. Read some of the stories: www.viabenefits.com I didn't want to like it, but this stuff is terrific. Gives you energy and just makes you feel good. Thanks for being so generous in sharing with your fans. You write beautifully. And you look fabulous in that photo on the plane. Warm regards, Lana in SFO, Lanasan I am loving reading through your blog posts, starting from the first of the year.

Yes, I'm always telling people (I'm a 45 year old queer who with his partner had to leave the States) how lucky I feel to have gotten another year. For one thing, so many of my peers haven't made it, right? Everyone has their journey but to erase the possibilities of life with premature judgments about aging.... My goodness, what's the alternative? There are so many amazing adventures emerging every day that to write them all off with "I'm too old", "I can't", etc. seems so, I don't know, like we're not recognizing the truth or the magnificence of our presence. You're such a light, much peace Thank you!! Yes, I’m always telling people (I’m a 45 year old queer who with his partner had to leave the States) how lucky I feel to have gotten another year.

I am the same age as you are and still working (husband & I have small business). I have been a fan for a long time. Any time "Cat Ballou" is on TV I watch it. I probably have seen it 20 times. I just wish the old movie channel would run your "Period of Adjustment" movie. I loved it and remember laughing so hard at you and your "little blue bag". At least I think it was blue. Maybe you could talk to Ted T about running it on one of his channels. Anyway, you go girl, we out here in the hinterlands are rooting for you. Your blog is so interesting.

I also approach some of those "new" things in my life as an adventure. It makes for so much more fun! Thanks for this glimpse into your life. I look forward to getting to know you better.
