one more photo: Rehearsal was good – fast, anyway. we didn’t start on time because i was five minutes late. the director, john, called me at 7:03 and i yelled into the phone, “I’M SORRY AND I’M DRIVING 50 DOWN MONROE STREET!” so then he couldn’t very...

Gee, where has the week gone? Thursday already, i need to get back into play-mode. i’d decided that i don’t know what i’ll do when it’s over, but i haven’t really thought about it much while i’ve been away. i haven’t even thought about my lines or anything, but...

i just got done giving chair massages at the hospital. i gave massages to a guy who liked it a lot. then he said “that was like a lapdance in reverse.” hmmm. i thanked him, because i didn’t exactly know how to respond, and i definitely didn’t want to ask...

One year, my friend Christine had a VD party. It wasn’t an anti-Valentine’s Day party, she remembers, it was more of an over-the-top celebration of the absurdity of the holiday, plus the fact that VD also stands for Venereal Disease, and how the two could easily be...

I never, ever stay up this late. We had our opening night, and it went really well, people laughed a lot. It was so much fun. Tonight I decided that I want to be in one play after another. I also realized why I like being in plays so much – it’s just a lot of fun,...

the day before yesterday, a remarkably vivid image popped into my head, of a specific street in LA. I’ve walked down that street quite a bit; it’s in Santa Monica, close to the ocean, and it’s tree-lined and lovely. i thought about how much i’d love to live there....

i’m here at panera, taking advantage of the free wifi. yet another invented word, certainly not as annoying as the word “blog.” but wifi is too much like hi-fi, in my opinion. things are, well…fine. not fine, of course, but i do fool the people who i...

i woke up at 4:17, tossing and turning, and finally decided to get up for a while. why not? well, because i’d only been asleep for about five hours, that’s why not. i was hoping for a good, interrupted 9-10 hours of sleep last night. i don’t know why i keep deluding...

OK, i just have to make one thing clear, then i won’t mention it again (probably): Somebody wrote a letter to the editor of the Illinois Times this week asking what happened to me, and the editor put in a little blurb that i have this website. But he neglected to say...

My friend Erica said to me last night, “You’re brave, writing all that stuff on your blog.” Certainly not brave. Foolish, yes. Not brave. Not foolish, I guess, either. Just me. I need to express myself, pretty much all the time. I can’t help it. I usually don’t wonder...
