There should be a "night y'all" at the end. Oops! :D

Let The River Run
The lyrics are appropriate for today, plus this is just one of my all time favorite Carly Simon songs. Enjoy!

St. Pat's merch now available!
Yeah, I know - it's still two months off and I leapfrogged Valentine's Day, but shamrocks are harder to draw than hearts!
Unemployement, decision validation, the color Blue and Welcome!
Comment: Isn't it amazing how one can achieve that freshly-fucked look without ever having been touched?

Craigs List can be so much fun
A plethora of people who are overly fond of ALL CAPS and many many exclamation points!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Like it makes it more exciting, somehow, to break the English language into bits, rub the bits in the dirt and then fix it all back together again with used duct tape.
What I truly love, though, are the men who post ads looking to fulfill some sort of fantasy. Take this one for example:
Dallas-based professional seeking dancers for private nude lap dances at my home. Would like to entertain dancers 2-3 times a week. $250 for 30 minutes.
Also seeking an assistant/girl friday to perform work in the nude. I'm not looking for a maid or a secretary, just someone to straighten the pillows on my bed, mix a drink for me, sit in my lap while I watch a game on TV, take showers with me, that sort of thing. $500 an hour.
As long as you're over 18, age and race is not important. Also, I'm not interested in filming or photographing you, so no worries about that. I work from home, so my hours are flexible.
I am 32, handsome, hung (11 inches), green eyes, brown hair, 6'4", 225 pounds. I am disease free, HIV negative and 420 friendly.
If interested, we can exchange photos to see if there is mutual attraction, and if so, can meet for coffee or a drink to see if the vibe is right. Since I'm letting strangers into my home and will be relaxing around them, I want to feel comfortable.
Oh to be an electronic fly on the wall and see what kind of responses he gets!

Today is Soup Day
I've had this turkey carcass in the freezer since Christmas (my cousin was going to throw it out! Two of them! My mother took the other) and I finally broke down and bought the veggies to make soup. A friend dug up an old recipe that I'm sortof using, mainly for the cooking directions.
I threw in an onion, some carrots, celery and mushrooms, garlic and cayenne pepper, simmer for 6 hours (two hours left at this writing). Clean off the turkey meat, throw in some egg noodles, simmer for another 30 and done.
I just tasted it.
Let's just say that if I actually bothered to really cook more often, I'd probably never stop eating.

First rehearsal
Tonight was the first rehearsal for A New Drama, the show that marks my return to the stage later this month.
I thought it was just going to be a read-through, but nope - I got to stay after the read through and block the first scene with Mark-Brian and BOY was it fast paced and furious. I'm still trying to get my sea legs back and here we are zipping through this. I'm sitting here trying to redevelop my blocking shorthand and make sense of it afterward for a quick runthrough. AUGH My brain was on semi-overload, trying to get dialogue right, translating my scribbles into action while trying to get the pacing right. But hey - I wanted to get back into this and WHEEE I'm getting in spades, possums!
Luckily, the director seems to be a patient guy (and super nice, too). He's very exacting, knows what he wants, expects nothing less and it's really cool. I've had stage directors in the past who who just point and say - "oh just move sortof over there somewhere." Not Charles! He has it down to the specific seats he wants us to move in front of (this makes sense if you know the performance space, an old stone cottage where the seats are placed in a "L" shape around the perimeter of the main room). No generalities here!
But in the end, it's all a very good thing Charles does what he does the way he does it. Anything less, and I'd probably have a much more causal attitude about the whole thing.
Thank god Shakespeare is only a supporting role. I only have 5 or 6 scenes across the three acts, and some of them are super-short (for me) so I have time to breathe through this rehearsal process.
Oh and this just hit me today: How fun is it that a Hathaway is playing Shakespeare?
