that ain't no sears tower

no, it isn't.

it's not a promise, either. . .

but that.
is milwaukee.


there's a good chance. . . don't say good. . . there's a chance that kevin and i will end up in milwaukee come august.
if not milwaukee, then maybe here:














in high point, north carolina. home of the NC Shakespeare Festival. that's the chamber of commerce, not the theatre. sadly. but, man. how cool would that be?

i'm auditioning for NCSF the morning of may 5th.
got a call from stewart to audition that afternoon.
have an appointment with geddes the next morning.
then, if all goes well, NC callbacks the afternoon of the 6th.
pre-marital counseling session #1 at 2pm on the 7th.
and finally sweeney todd at OHS that night.

wow.

besides those things next week. . .right now?

i'm done with college. which is strange.
i got certified in 3 areas of stage combat today:
single sword, small sword, & unarmed. which is awesome.

he made me do it

i went to a poetry/spoken word writing workshop today.

i had never been to a writing workshop before, apart from Donna Barnes' Freshman AP English class. but that was 1999-2000. 1999. wow. and i don't remember doing poetry in there. we did It's a Wonderful Life, and Our Town, and words. such as:
me: imbibe
tiff: histrionic
andrew: peccadillo

remember peccadillo? i will never forget it as long as i live.

Andrew: My word is "peccadillo"
Donna: And what does it mean?
Andrew: Uh...it's a type of cheese.
Donna:
The rest of the class:
Andrew: . . . cheese. . .



upon looking it up, we found that its actually meaning is:
a slight offense

close, mr robinson. so close.

what kind of forks do you want?

i mean, there is just. so. much. to plan.

but. . .

i have our senior showcase on monday, with a dress rehearsal on sunday. i should find out whether or not i got the Milwaukee Rep internship by the 15th. then the 30th is our stage combat certification test. may 5-6 is an audition for North Carolina Shakespeare's fall season. commencement on the 11th.

and that's just me. kevin has an inner voices show all next week. potted meat rehearsals the week after that, for their show on the 19th. and then his thesis is due on the 25th.


besides that giant list of mainly academic things to do, we are also trying to plan our wedding. our wedding, which is being celebrated on the 26th of july, (only 11 days after our 43 day trek around europe from june3-july15) even though we're doing to actual paperwork on june 2nd in order to ease the rent's minds about the overseas time. which, in my opinion, is an awesome idea.


i just want to take a three day nap. like a coma. because if i was in a coma for just three days, i probably wouldn't miss much, but wouldn't get in trouble for all the stuff that i did miss.

anybody got a coma pill?


also, we're registered at Bed, Bath and Beyond, Crate & Barrel, and Kohl's.
have at it.
