long time, no update

So, funny story.

I have an internship in New York City this summer.

As the assistant to the Artistic Director of NY Artists Unlimited.

Melba, the AD, told me that in addition to helping to book venues for their shows, assisting in the "Bad Musicals Festival" they are having, and working in her office, I will probably end up having to stage manage or ACT in one of the shows over the summer.

Oh, yeah, did i mention that one of the driving missions of the company is breaking the fourth wall with the audience?

Why is this my perfect job?

I am going to go into soooooooo much debt because of this internship. But it's going to be so worth it. Right now I'm going crazy trying to get housing and money issues together. Hopefully, I'll have everything figured out by the end of next week.

i am frustrated in every sense of the word.

it's true.  i took an online quiz.

At times I feel like I know what I'm doing. Perhaps the better term to use is that I feel "comfortable" with my place in the world. I kind of like being a junior. My place in my social circles have been set, and I can breathe, and have opinions about people and events without fearing the repercussions. To put it generically, it's nice.

This past weekend involved some much-needed revelry. Joe Delaney somehow convinced kathryn and I to throw an impromptu party at our place...and it was a success. I managed to mix some of my social circles, which I'm sure all of you can agree is ALWAYS a scary prospect! After not drinking for about two weeks and being sick for a week, I can tell you that my tolerance was sufficiently destroyed, much to the amusement of my comrades. Let's hear it for dancing, candy necklaces, and circle of death.

The next night was Winny's Birthtravaganza! Dinner at Ruby Tuesday's, followed by pre-gaming at jeni and winny's, some time at Murphy's and then back to Jeni's. A debaucherous night was had by all! Once again, a destroyed tolerance led to a little bit of...honesty on my part.

I'm in another show. "Sure Thing" by David Ives. It's part of a valentine's day themed show that PDP is doing about relationships and communication. Mike McGreevy is directing, and I'm acting with my favorite partner in crime, Charlie Johnson (aka, Cha-Jo, aka, Cha)

I'm also going to be proposing an installment of Come See Our Shorts for the end of April. I'm incredibly excited about this, and have many ideas.

I really like theater.

The sky is also blue. So I've heard.

"and how I miss
Substituting the conclusion to confrontation with a kiss
And oh, how I miss
Walking up to the edge and jumping in
Like I could feel the future on your skin."
- Ani Difranco "Firedoor"


by the way.  try out for Proof.  My roomie is producing it, and it's an awesome show.

So guess who's gonna be in this year's production of the Vagina Monologues?

ME!

From Wikipedia's synopsis of the play, here is the piece I will be performing:

The Woman Who Loved to Make Vaginas Happy, in which a dominatrix for women discusses the intriguing details of her career and her love of giving women pleasure. In several performances it often comes at the end of the play, literally climaxing with a vocal demonstration of a "triple orgasm."

fuck yeah.  you know you want to see it now!

I already have homework for 2 of my classes.

I take it that this is going to be a rough semester.





On a brighter note, my boss Sarah told me stories about her drinking and encouraged me to go to lots of different bars, under the disclaimer "...I'm only telling you this because you're working over winter break."


Which brings me to my next thought. Would anyone like to join me in a quest to go to as many non-campustown establishments this semester as possible? There's a lot in this town that I've never experienced. Gotta make it fun. I'm going to make a list. and then we can make rules. According to sarah, one of the rules should "you have to stay for at least one drink, even if the townies are scary."
