No One Is That Loved

Written by Susan Fritz | Tuesday, March 1st, 2016 Posted in Blog, Dan Fritz, What I Write
You don’t need to know the “preamble” to this post, but I’ll give you one anyway. I was in the middle of applying to an artistic Residency for this spring, searching for a current acting resume on my desktop–a task which should take 3 seconds but proved difficult due to recent computer switching and lack of backup skills. Oh, and also the fact that I haven’t dusted the thing off for a “while”–I’m being purposely vague because it̵...

Released February 28, 2016! Q Before A (On the Fritz Gets an Earlift) This link takes you to all episodes on the iTunes Hey, On the Fritz listeners! In this episode I tackle two messages I received this past week from friends. Warning for those expecting lumberjacks or Linda…this one’s more serious. I read aloud part of the exchange between one friend on the topic of grief and how to deal; the other, I scratch the surface of the answer to the question posed, “What has been i...

Follow Your Chills

Written by Susan Fritz | Sunday, February 28th, 2016 Posted in Blog, Hawaii
Follow your bliss -Joseph Campbell Unless you’ve also never heard of yoga, Lululemon, or Mythology itself, you’ve likely heard the bliss phrase, spoken by Joseph Campbell, famed scholar of comparative mythology and religion. Probably best known for The Power of Myth, Mr. Campbell made us Moderns think about the role of myths in our everyday lives–including the oft-cited “Hero’s Journey”. This is all good stuff, but taken at face value, the “Follow you...

Something Where There is Nothing

Written by Susan Fritz | Sunday, February 21st, 2016 Posted in Blog, Hawaii, Yoga
The best compliment I have ever received was from an Italian, in Italy. I’d just made a totally nutso video on my Flip camera (RIP Flip) using a stuffed green Barbapapa character and filmed on the roof–which was drenched in TV wires and satellites–of the apartment where I was living. If I were a bona fide filmmaker, you could exchange the adjective “nutso” to “esoteric”, “artsy”, or even “abstruse”, but since I’m not, I&#...

Ben and Bieber

Written by Susan Fritz | Wednesday, February 17th, 2016 Posted in Blog, Dan Fritz
In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes. –Uncle Ben Allow me to practice making a Constitutional Amendment to this phrase (I’m running for President–did you know?), because aside from being overly cynical, it’s not exactly true. I know plenty of people who have avoided taxes for years–one or two who even went to the grave running from the IRS. So if I were Phrase President, I’d change this famous quote (written by THE first a...

La Scorciatoia

Written by Susan Fritz | Wednesday, February 17th, 2016 Posted in Blog
I’m all about the Shortcut. So much so that when I spent a bunch of time in Italy a few years ago, my friend noticed me always cutting corners while walking across a piazza or amending the Italian language by eliminating various so-called “essential” articoli such as il, la, and le., per esempio… I mean…does it really matter if the apple is a girl or a boy? I’m all about gender equality here! Even in language…especially in language. Her response was always the same: “Questa ...

Actual Green Space

Written by Susan Fritz | Tuesday, February 16th, 2016 Posted in Blog, Hawaii, The Way I See It, What I Write
I have been thinking a lot about Space–Inner and Outer, although not the outer one above our heads. The non-filled areas–fields, parks, vastness… Do we allow for it? Is it important to us? Or does it simply feel like a waste of, ahem…space? I am decidedly a lucky one–born into a life and place (Montana) which included nature, and then spit out (voluntarily) to grow into adulthood in the biggest city in the States (I refer here to New York City). My experience wit...
