This is what brown can do for you.

2:30 AM Recap

Bless me, father, for I have sinned.  It has been 2 months since my last post.  So a recap is in order:

1) I’ve been teaching some knucklehead kids in 2 middle schools since the middle of January.  It’s an up and down process, especially this is a theater residency and not the kind where they sign up for the class and really wanna be there.  High Point: when I realized that, after weeks of trying to play improv games with them, all I had to say was “this is just like on Wild’n Out.”

2) Altar Boyz closed.  With much drama.  First we were extending.  Then I saw a posting for Always, Patsy Cline auditions.  Then I heard we were closing.  No extension.  Personally, I think the theater has to get it’s act together.

3) My poverty forced me to go back to the BGSC.  Ugh.  Bad tippers, mullets, Paris Hilton mini-me’s.  Realized I can’t make a living working there and have been applying for other restaurant jobs ever since.

4) I auditioned for a project that might put me in Chicago for a month or so.  Went to Chicago for the final callback.  TGID met me there.  Got to hang out for a few hours before heading back to the airport.  I think I gotta spend more time in Chicago.

5) Booked some on camera work.  That’ll help thicken the wallet.

6) Applied for a writing fellowship.  Wish me luck!

And that brings you to today.  So now that we’re all on the same page, let’s get this blog cookin’.
