survey says: enough job drama and drama job!
all right, already. i suppose i can countenance a break from the play-by-play of Continuing Job Capers 2004. i have, however, been assured of the job's complete flexibility, and had a conversation with the acquaintance who did it before that was very reassuring and exciting, and pending a conversation with potential boss guy, am considering it a go. still kind of scares me, but.
the theatre company i was cast into is applying to do our show at the new york fringe. as much as i was dreaming of not being here in august, when the urine smell hits its apex, it might be a lot of fun. they can do it without me, though, and they may have to, since i'm back west for a wedding the weekend before the festival opens. the festival itself is on shaky financial legs, and so there's always the chance, too, that it'll collapse before the summer (if you haven't heard, this is going around like some sort of asian bird flu). but: possibly work to look forward to.
i'm in seattle next week. i'm very much looking forward to it. sort of more, maybe, than i was at christmas. i'm happier here, now--in a way, it feels like the trip home was a necessary part of feeling settled in new york. i'm sure being cast in an ensemble of charming creative types and generating new work every week has something to do with it, too. if you're there, i'll be seeing john kaufmann's show on thursday, and yipping out for drinks after.
last night after work, i took a steaming hot shower with an ice-cold beer. when i got out: there were pork chops!
i live in a magic house.
