stayed up late last night, reading scripts I got from play committee meeting, and then slept late this morning! Ahhhhh. I love it. I would have probably still be in the bed had the phone not rang.rung.rang.rung. whatever. It was the lady at my city office returning my call. there is a temporary hold on the recycling program here in my Village. No one will buy it. China buys most of our (I’m assuming the USA…not The Village) recycleables and they dont want ANY right now. SO. Not only do I have my personal stash, but the salon’s as well. GAH. She did say that they will be bins arriving midmonth, and we’ll have to seperate our recycle…right now it all goes in the same bin, sans glass.
So. I did what any normal girl would do, I got off the phone made coffee and had a healthy breakfast! Back on program this week ya’ll! And am ignoring the recycle problem for the morning.
So I read the two scripts that are for the upcoming Carpenter Square auditions. Well, there are three shows, but I’d read one already. The Clean House by Sarah Rule was good. Some funny stuff there. But my favorite, FAVORITE is The Little Dog Laughed by Douglas Carter Beane. Now, that man can write a play and can write a part for a woman that just knocks it outta the park. So…for the first time in a very long time I want a role. WANT a role. THAT ROLE. The other two shows, yes. I want to be onstage. I want to work with these people. These shows are great. and I would take anything in either one of them…but THIS ROLE…cue angels singing…lawd lawd lawd.
Anyways, I have four more scripts to read for the committee. We have narrowed it down to a list of about twenty five and are going from there. We have to get the season set within the next…oh I’d say…month or so. I think we have some really strong contenders, we are still lacking a holiday show and the student matinee…any thoughts on a script for either of those?
What’s your day look like? Back to work for most folk. I’m taking Kikimama to the doc, hitting the grocery store for some healthy program foods, home to make some vegetable soup for the week and probably to do some laundry. it’s back to work tomorrow, the OU game on Thursday, a birthday party friday night for one of the comedy boys, then Mgirl and I are heading to Tulsa town on Saturday to hang with her parents for the weekend.
ok kids, that’s all I got for now. Kikimama has successfully planted herself in my lap between my body and the computer on my knees, pushed back as far as possible. I’m going to sip some more coffee, call the vet and get us in to see him. pray that it’s not a huge gigantic something awful. I’ll keep ya posted.

I want you to have that role.
