I am wearing this out tonight to hopefully see Joseph at SecondStory (I am on the waitlist and desperately concerned that I'm not gonna get in... which would be awkward because then I would be stuck up in Redmond... so, yeah, hoping I get a ticket...). Yay for all my friends who are awesome! I really wanna see this show too and I think tonight is my only opportunity.

Fine Piece of Work

Spent most of today making follow up phone calls trying to get more job interviews (no luck yet, but more to make tomorrow) and practicing for my audition tomorrow morning.

Now I am getting ready to go out and meet my Night Zero director for a little character meeting and drinks getting ready for the shoot on May 8th...

Well, my loverly computer cord seems to be on the fritz again.  I am desperately trying to keep it from dying completely and seem to be slowly failing... But for now, it's working, so that's good at least.

Tonight I am heading to one of my neighbors (below me) apartments for a Passover seder.  I am bringing wine and chairs and she made a great feast for us and it will be fun to see some theatre peeps, meet new people and eat good food all right downstairs from me. How convenient!

Oh Halloween, how I love you!  How much fun is it to get all dressed up in costume with a bunch of other people and hangout?!  I mean, seriously?  Best Holiday EVER!!!!! Plus, I heart seeing what other people dress up as.  Sometimes people are so clever!

Today my mama is taking me & the seestor out to dinner to celebrate Lin finishing her grad school apps and me getting cast in Threepenny!  And I get to meet their new kitten, Little Monster!  Yay!  Should be good times!  Sundays are awesome!

PS Dad, listen to Pam, that IS my hair in the last post, NOT a wig.  It's called hairspray and back-combing and it's not even that hard to do.  Listen to your wife.

It's the End of the World As We Know It (and I Feel Fine)

Plans changed last night...again. Mama ended up having to work late, so we are back on for dinner on Thurs! And I decided against rushing home at lunch to grab the yoga clothes and just enjoying another relaxing night (worth it!). Therefore, today I am rushing to yoga from work and then rushing from there to Yankee Tavern at ACT. Excited to see the new Dietz all about conspiracy theories surrounding 9/11... should be good times. Loved his last show, Becky's New Car (also at ACT), and generally just love him so I am def excited to check out this show.

Today is supposed to be the last nice summer day above 80 for the year and I am taking FULL advantage of it in my F21 grey ballet skirt with buttons on the sides, gifted purple lace racer-back tank from UO and black Pour la Victoire gladiator sandals from Loehmanns in NYC. I am also wearing my mirrored black & white earrings, long black beaded necklace and silver & black beaded bracelet.

Also, I meant to mention after my summer reading post that you all can please ask me about any of the books OR borrow them! Again, the only one I would NOT rec is Bright Lights, Big Ass. Unless, of course, you enjoy conservative bitchy fat-girl complaining and generally all around rude person in a "true memoir" style (retch).

Out of Your Dreams...

Finished the big audition this morning (without having to sing the SUPER high song that I happened to memorize...) with a conversation with the casting director about "my dancing"--my un-coordination strikes again! Meh... oh wells... What can you do? The song kicked ass, so I'm concentrating on that part right now...

We jump (head first) back into As You tonight (sans p/u rehearsal--w00t!) and I am super excited to start playing again! Only 2 more weekends and 6 more performances! But we're mostly rockin' it in Seattle from now on (with a brief trip to Redmond tomorrow).

For le audition/nice weather I am wearing my flounce tbd brown polka dotted dress with lace trim from Nordys, thrifted 3/4 sleeve lace-back tan sweater and brown Seychelles pumps with gold trim from Loehmanns in NYC. Also wearing my pearlized shell bracelet from Hawaii.

Off Duty

So ready for the weekend, for realzies. I need some sleep and relaxation... and some time to get off book. Blearg! We open in 2 weeks. Yup, TWO WEEKS! Crazytimes!

Rehearsal outside tonight and what I wouldn't give for the weather to be like it was yesterday or the day before... I am actually planning a trip home to change into something warmer before heading over to Sand Point... So that I will not freeze when the wind blows off the water.

I am wearing my matty m gold bead embellished maroon racer-back tank from Nordys with my H&M military jacket, thrifted Gap cropped black pants and Sam Edelmann snake skin-ish bronze pointy-toed flats. Adding my Aprie straw hat for outside and it's def cute, but NOT the warmest of outfit choices.

PS Check out my helmet head? What's up with that?!

Orange You Glad to See Me?

OK, so can we talk about Brotherhood for a second? What is it with gay men who shouldn't be attached that are so hot? Seriously? What is it? It was a great movie. Really attacking the issues of ideology versus true nature. Sad. Really sad. But moving for sure.

Today was literally insane. I went to yoga this morning, then rehearsal, NWNW studio show, shower, SIFF movie and then hanging out with the roomie. CRAZY TIMES. I mean, honestly, I didn't get to shower until what? 6 hours after yoga ended? Insane.

Tonight I saw Fathers and Guns, which oh my god, was HILARIOUS! Seriously. SO FUNNY. Both were definitely 4 outta 5's for me. Lovely.

Tonight I wore my new mattie m tank from Nordys , $6 H&M skirt, polka dot leggings, brown seychelles pumps from Loehmanns, thrifted sweater and Aprie straw hat.

I'm A Little LOST in Ruffles

So, yesterday was the LOST series finale and, oh there was drama. Apparently, Comcast went out in the Seattle area about 15 minutes into the final episode, which we realized when the DVR stopped recording about 45 minutes later... Dani called and yelled and we ended up in Kirkland at one of Nate's friend's houses watching his DVR'd finale (thank GOD for DVR). And then, I really am not sure what I thought about it. To protect those of you who have not seen it I will go into NO details, but it was a little confusing... Not that that is anything new, but... I was a little LOST.

Before the LOST finale-ness Dani and I hung out watching the SIFF movies Nowhere Boy and I Am Love. And let me just say, Nowhere Boy was effing brilliant! The 19-year-old kid who played John NAILED him. Really, a very, very powerful performance. Plus I loved that John "Imagine" Lennon was such a badass in his youth. Plus the kid from "Love, Actually" played Paul and he was super adorable! And he can sing! And Kristin Scott Thomas. I mean, enough said, right? She was (and always is) BRILLIANT!

I Am Love was a little more... um, I think the technical term is "art house", but I would go with artsy fartsy... It took itself waaaay too seriously and although it was absolutely drop-dead gorgeous to look at and Tilda Swinton was near-perfect, the story as a whole was really lacking a core. There didn't seem to be any reason why you were watching this thing... frustrating.

But overall, I think 3 out of the 4 movies I saw this weekend were really good. Winning weekend, for sure.

For all my running around to sit and watch I wore my BDG dark denim jeans from UO, Sam Edelman reptile shiny bronze pointy-toed flats from Loehmanns in NYC, ruffled grey Fossil tank and navy & cream polka-dot Parfait ruffle cardigan from Nordys.
