What I Did: Week Ending 2009-03-01

  • So um, yeah. I need a vacation. Maybe to another planet. I wish my people would come rescue me from this Mostly Harmless place. #soum #
  • Will work for Tea. I am nearly out. #
  • Tues, on my blog, I commented about the Atlanta Unifieds. The official totals: Slots available: 236 with 24 Alternates. 342 people applied. #
  • RT @EddieIzzard: Take a leap. == A friend jumps off a cliff and you are smart enough not to, but because Eddie said it you are … hey wait. #
  • Off to meet the parents for lunch. Almost said “Parental Units”. It’s that some late 80’s terminology. #
  • My Tweak-UI’s Focus follow Mouse is acting up today. I did not realize how much I liked that feature until it misbehaves. #
  • Finished off my second tin of tea today. I need to make a trip to @Teavana and soon. #
  • Although they do allow anybody and their brother write reviews and therefore not to be entirely trusted, there are a few http://is.gd/l0lb #
  • As far as I know, the reviews could have been done by cast. More reason not to believe everything you read. If I comment, I use my real name #
  • OK. So I was a little hard on Theater Review yesterday. People sometimes review the shows out of spite. Lots are “new” people. #
  • RT @atlantasymphony: Welcome to Twitter @alliancetheatre ! <– hazaahh #
  • Supposed to shoot Bright Flames tomorrow AM and the costume people have lost the measurements and therefore no costumes. Project from Hell!! #
  • We are supposed to shoot tomorrow anyway, just to get something in the can. #
  • RT @DocGyver: well your looking at, um reading about ATL’s latest MySQL Certified DBA CMDBA <– Congratulations !! #
  • well off to find dinner then off to the play. Supposed to have a good audience tonight. #

What I Did On 2009-01-30

  • Bright Flames TV shoot on Sunday has been canceled. A fall out I think between the Tech Guy with all the film equipment and the Director. #
  • I was so ready to shoot this thing and get it behind me. One of the most aggravating projects I have ever worked on in my short career. #
  • Anyone know of a camera crew willing to work for nothing for episode 1. There may be money in the future hopefully from PBS or Discovery TV. #
  • @the_brian_jones So sorry for your loss. in reply to the_brian_jones #
  • @the_brian_jones Beautiful cat. in reply to the_brian_jones #
  • I am so ready for my daily job to be over with. Was actually thinking it was 4:30PM-EST and started eating dinner before my evening job. Doh #

What I Did On 2009-01-05

  • By busy schedule this week: http://tinyurl.com/8cxran #
  • Off to buy some fruit. #
  • Enjoying fresh strawberries and a cup of Peach White tea. #
  • OK, no voice over for “The Interview” which means “Bright Flames” rehearsal tonight. Maybe, and that’s a maybe, for voice over tomorrow night #
  • Which means possible missing a Gwinnett Gladiator’s hockey game Thursday so I can audition for Driving Miss Daisy if I can’t tomorrow night. #
  • Those last two tweets were both exactly 140 characters. #
  • Crap. I may miss an audition because of all this re-arranging. S’pose I should at least email and express interest in auditioning. #
  • Know the director of Driving Miss Daisy, but not sure who is directing Sabrina Fair. It’s at Kudzu and they like me, so I have an in at both #
  • Not that having an “in” means getting a role. Just that they know my work. #
  • On my second cup of Mandarin Orange Green tea. #
  • Well, I am off to Bright Flames rehearsal. #

First full week of 2009

Today, I mailed off the application with headshot and resume for the Unifieds. Deadline is January 16th. Hopefully I will be accepted again this year. Last years attendance got me auditions at The Alliance, Theatre in the Square, Marcus Jewish Community Center Theatre and with Tyler Perry Studios. This year, I plan to work with Pat Hurley on a couple of monologues in preparation for the Unifieds.

Tonight will be one of two things: Ether voice over for on the short film I did in August (The Interview). And/Or rehearsal for Bright Flames TV. Let’s talk about The Interview. My understanding is that this is nearly complete in post-production. Matt McGahren is hopping to submit this for the Atlanta Film Festival. Deadline is this Friday. I assume the voice over is for my part. I guess the sound is not what they wanted when originally shot. If not tonight, then tomorrow evening.

On the Bright Flames TV front, apparently Robert Howell has found a crew with equipment so we are not dependent on the local community TV studio. The local community studio never could get their act together, so this will be good. Robert wants me (and I assume the rest of the cast) to do a voice over for a trailer. And the new shooting location is at Callanwolde Fine Arts Center. Looks like a very nice place. If The Interview voice over is tonight and early enough, I can make tonight’s Bright Flames rehearsal.

Tomorrow AM is a stress test with the cardiologist to see if I can exercise without killing myself. I have been on medication for high blood pressure now for 6 days. Not fun. I have to drink plenty of fluids so my pressure does not drop too low. It did Saturday night, not enough intake during the day. So light-headednes kept me from going to the Gladiators game that night. Last night I did not sleep very well. Due to fluid intake/output, I believe I am short on Potassium. My back of my legs really ached. Very painful.

Tomorrow PM. Depending on if I do not have to do The Interview voice over tomorrow night, I plan on auditioning for BOOLIE WERTHAN in Driving Miss Daisy at Act1 Theater. BOOLIE is the son of DAISY WERTHAN. But if the voice over is tomorrow night, then I will audition on Thursday night, missing another Gladiators game.

Wednesday PM is an audition for Sabrina Fair at Kudzu Playhouse. I think I would make a good DAVID LARRABEE. DAVID is the younger brother of LINUS LARRABEE JR.

Thursday PM will hopefully be a Gladiators’ game, but that depends on … well, see above.

Friday PM is supposed to be another Bright Flames rehearsal.

So everynight this week is something. <sigh>
