Alison Jutzi Talks Amongst Herself

And now, the much-anticipated second post in my What I Have Learned About Marriage collection. You can read the first post here . Age of marriage: (almost) 7 months They say that the first year of marriage is the hardest, but I cannot see how the year after all the wedding planning is done could possibly be difficult. Not spending several paralyzing hours a week trying to pick out a china pattern at the Bay has been great for our relationship; Saying "husband" and "wife" is fun! For the first few months it sounded almost silly, but now I'm used to it and I like it; I haven't had as many people ask me when I'm going to have children as I thought I would; Sometimes when you're married, people call you Mrs. Sullivan and it makes you giggle; Sometimes when you're married, people call your husband Mr. Jutzi and that makes you guffaw; That joint bank account we started is fabulous! I've bought more clothes with that money...I'M JOKING! IT'...

I am very pleased to announce that I will be joining the My Pop Choir team in the new year when I start conducting a choir at their brand new Bloor West location. My Pop Choir is for people who want to sing because it feels good. There are no auditions, and no one ever has to sing a solo. It is just a group of people getting together for an hour and a half each week, singing in harmony and having a good time. Check out the My Pop Choir website for more information!

This post could also be entitled, "Conversations between actors that seem interesting when you're involved in them, but are definitely tedious and boring when you're not."

They are typical of the banter that occurs when two actor friends run into each other: Have you been going out for a lot of film and t.v.? No, just commercials lately. It's so hard to get your foot in the door. I knowwww. I didn't go to one audition all summer. ALL summer. And I haven't booked anything in a year. Oh, that's too bad. I've had a really hard time being seen too. This week I shot my first commercial in a year. That's great! Yeah, it's good. But I wish I could just get my foot in the door for some film and t.v. auditions. Tell me about it. So I ran into *casting director* and she told me she was sorry for not calling me in. She remembers me bec...

My Drake General Store spot is out, and I've never looked better.

Just wanna get that out there. Because this post is going to be about pregnancy, and I don't want everyone to get all excited like when I posted a link to this hilarious Hairpin article about delivering a baby, and subsequently caused a bit of a stir. I want to talk about those people who comment on Facebook statuses of pregnant women, warning them how crappy their life is about to get. You know the kind. And if you don't, here are some examples: Preggers: "I had the best sleep last night. 9 hours!" Negative Nelly: "Enjoy your sleep now because you won't be getting any when the baby comes lol!" Preggers: "What a wonderful first anniversary with the love of my life: Steak and ice cream, and a lovely moonlit stroll on the beach...it really doesn't get better than this." Debbie Downer : "Don't get used to it, once the baby comes you won't get any alone time lol!" Preggers: "Loved having a girls...
