Hellobee Boards

The biggest thing I've done to recharge my creativity was to get involved in improvisational comedy. I actually wouldn't have met my husband without it. We've since parted ways with the troupe that we were in, but DH and I collaborate on things. We do lots of "bits" and have written some things (nothing that's gone anywhere yet). Just the practice of improving together gets the creative juices flowing.
I do miss performing though! It's a real buzz.

Hahaha, we kid about it sometimes, but we don't usually. We have different styles and strengths, which helps. It's the ultimate compliment that I can even make DH laugh- not many people can do it! He looks at me with respect and says "You're very funny."
He has done professional stand-up in the past, which I can't imagine doing. So in that way, he's funnier but in everyday social or storytelling situations I'm funnier.
Needless to say, we laugh a LOT around here!
I totally recommend people try some classes even if they don't have a desire to perform or take it anywhere. It really helps you look at things differently and can be applied in lots of areas.

I write creatively and I feel like I have to be home alone to be able to work. Otherwise I get self conscious.

@Megwag that is so neat! I take classes to challenge myself and build some creativity. Right now I am taking a French class and then we will all go to France with the brood. My husband said he refuses to order anything or get a taxi so that I can show off haha I like taking art classes as well and going to the museum with Liam.
