It's the end of the month, I figure I should write something.

Something.

Here's me with a puppy

So I just got passed over for the first summer Shakespeare show in the nine seasons I've been doing it. I know it shouldn't be that big a deal, but I really kind of bummed about it. People are probably tired of seeing my face anyway. I do have one more weekend of Antony & Cleopatra left. Actually I feel really lucky to play the role of Enobarbus, it's a fun role and I like it. The show has had it's ups and downs, and there are some things I wish I could change about it, but it really turned out better than I thought it would. At the end of July I'll start work on Doctor Faustus. I'm looking forward to that. Also in September and October I'll be heading out on tour with a children's theatre company. It's a professional show, but it will just be me and one other person on the road for two months. I'm a bit nervous about it.

Well at least I'll have a fraction of free time on my hands this summer.

What the fuck is up with gas prices? I remember when it was $1 a gallon. Hell it wasn't even this expensive in the post Katrina days.

I'm still alive and literally working on five projects at once. I just finished up acting in a show called The White Rose, now I'm working on Antony & Cleopatra for the summer Shakespeare season, which opens next Friday. I play Enobarbus. It's a good role. I also have two lighting designs coming up and am in the preliminary stages of directing Doctor Faustus which will be the final show of the season in September. Hopefully I can make it until then.

Take care.

I really need to learn how to stand up straight.

No words can describe this.

Remember once you see it, it can't be un-seen.

I'm alive and in the midst of directing another play. It opens in less than two weeks. I think it's going pretty well. Actually it's going so well that I'm afraid that there is something I'm missing, or something is going to fall apart real soon. We'll see. I've got a great cast of really talented actors. I think it will be a good show.
