J's 2006 World

Well well well well well... here we go again....new year, new bat time....
Ahead are some 2006 highlights of Jolene's World, circa 2006, (READ: highlights because I had access to a camera) Enjoy!

One of my boyfriends won best actor for his portrayal of the great Johnny Cash in Walk the Line, I am proud.


I purchased a scanner early in the year, all so I could scan stupid photos like this pic of me and my first husband, Big Bear. The critters are our children. I'm not sure where they are today, but I reckon they are doing well for themselves.


I took a silly freelance gig, but I got my brother featured in my story! yay!


Got a Kickin' role as Karen in David Mamet's Speed the Plow, a role Madonna first played on broadway... pssst told I was better than Madge!


My body looks huge, but look at cute Adam being so serious behind me!! Tee-hee!


Hello Karen has Cleavage!


Then I met a boy...he sells T-shirts on the internet.


Took a dramatic pause in my dressing room at the cast party.


Adam behaved a little more dramatically in the theatre's ghetto kitchen.


Made a great friend in Mark, the show's most important crew member...here we celebrate at the Chicago Pride Parade, just after the show's final matinee


A moment of happiness from that crazy parade.


I love this outfit!!!! Pink is always the new pink!


In the Summer of '06 I loved hanging on my 'patio.'


My darlings, E and Kim came for a very quick visit...too quick! But enjoyable none the less!


A randomly funny photo that remians to be an inside joke!


In 2006 I adored the DVD the Mirrormask!


Oh that boy again! Our first awkward pic together.


ROAR...according to the Chinese I was born in the year of the Tiger! So fitting!


Enjoying the summer!


Oooooh the EP Suites welcoming Goat...


And on the South side one of EP's Giraffe's


Cute. I found out I'm dating a dumpster diver. UH, actually... this is for real!!!!!


But yet he makes me the most interesting dinners!


Ooooh a beatiful friend gets married!


Her wedding ceremony at Theatre in the Round In Minneapolis!


While home I shot this pic of my baby sister.


I also celebtared the 4th of July by the Mississippi river in downtown St. Paul.


Then I squeezed my parents goodbye at the airport.


Summer in Chicago is soooo nice!!!!! I miss it!


Too much fun, scamming my way into Lollapalooza in Grant Park, Chicago.


Seeing The Flaming Lips! Yes!!!!!!


Frankie and I having fun at the festival.


Getting too addicted to a television show.


My boyfriend, Sawyer.


And yet another addicting show...


My boyfriend from this show...yum!


While home in the Fall of '06 I got to visit with my good friend Cate and her cute hubby, Tyler.


Ooooh it's Halloween time! These pumpkins have since been eaten by rats. :(


For Halloween we dressed as Donnie and Marie Osmond.


Seeeeeeeeeeee! We almost look just like them!


A good Chi-town friend...and the kicker? She grew up minutes from me in Roseville, Minnesota!


An unseasonablely warm day in the winter of '06.


And this is my weird boyfriend... after Halloween he got a discount on Pirate make-up and couldn't let it go to waste... this was a random night in November.

HAPPY 2007!
Kiss Kiss
