| i have a boyfriend
His name is Clay Goodpasture. He's my southern gentleman from Tennesssee. No, he does not have a southern drawl at all but sometimes a little bit sneaks out and it's maybe just a little too cute. He's an actor who, unlike me, actually performs often. Improv is his thing and comedy is most certainly his specialty as he is a very funny boy who makes me laugh constantly. I saw him in one of his shows before we started dating. He played a pirate and at one point a siren wearing an orange shiny bikini, atop a large stuffed rhinoceros. He's also in a jug band, yes, a jug band. He plays none other than...the jug. They perform between his acting gigs and are quite talented. He has all these crazy props in his apartment like a mini grand piano (like for a midge) and a tuba which he tried to play 76 Trombones on but this big metal part fell off of it. He and his best friend broke into my car with a plastic hanger and a pirate sword when I thought I locked my keys inside. He's wonderful. | | comments: 4 comments or Leave a comment |

| | Scarlett Johannson was just on Jay Leno and I thought she'd be somewhat cool. Oh I was wrong. She was annoying and strange and not in that good-strange way but in a very bad-strange way. She was also oddly loud. | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |

| This has been the best year of live music for me in my life and it's SO not even over yet! I saw Tom Petty last night at Riverport. I was definitely impressed with TP and the HB's--not impressed with Riverport and their $9 Budweiser, however. I always forget how awesome ol' Tommy is and how much I like him. Hopefully after this I won't need any more reminders. The Heartbreakers can still rock out with their old shriveled cocks out (I'm sorry I had to) and even though he is likely to be mistaken for the grim reaper on a regular basis, Tom can still sing and play as well as he ever could. Here's the set list:
You Wreck Me
Listen to Her Heart
I Won't Back Down
Even the Losers
Free Fallin'
Mary Jane's Last Dance
End of the Line (from his Traveling Wilburys days)
Breakdown
Saving Grace
A Face in the Crowd
Honey Bee
Learning to Fly
Don't Come Around Here No More
Refugee
*encore*
Runnin' Down A Dream
Gloria
American Girl
It was rumored that he wasn't going to play many of his hits and stick to his newer stuff. That would've been devastating. I respect playing some of your new stuff but seriously NO one is there to hear that shit. Mary Jane and Runnin' Down a Dream were highlights but Refugee was a particular delight...one of my favorites from him.
I'm totally gonna recap Lollapalolloozloloozlaloloozlalooza once I get back to Chicago and post all the awesome pics so stay tuuuuned | | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment |

a.) the outcome of this quiz will most likely be a depressing confirmation of what you already feared

| So I finally got my computer fixed! More RAM and ROM makes my computer a happy little puppy and well, makes it work too so that's always nice. There seems to be a renaissance of famous people coming into my store after months of just regular old rich bitches. That always spices things up a bit. I don't even cur like "OMG THEY'RE FAMOUS I BETTER GO WORSHIP THEM OR SOMETHING!" I just think it's interesting to see these people who are photographed, in movies, and on television getting coffee and being all real. Here are some of the people I've seen and maybe even talked to and a lil' somethin' somethin' about my interactions with them:
Oh he was really cool. He acted like anyone else. I was making drinks when my coworker and gorgeous friend Jill said over the headset, "tall soy latte...um, but make it really good cuz it's for Heath Ledger." I shot a sarcastic sneer her direction and looked over at the handoff plane and there he was. He was all smiles. We had a short, meaningless, nonetheless polite conversation about how each of us were that day. He thanked me, and off he went to finish filming the last movie he would ever complete.
David or "Davey", as I and all his close friends refer to him, waited in a long line and I was ringing that day which is totally rare for me. NO ONE recognized him, including myself, until he spoke. He ordered a modest cup of coffee. I was proud of myself for playing it cool cuz seriously the moment he spoke I said to myself, "ROSS!!!!!" He asked me if I was an actor and I said that I was. He said, "Yeah, there's just something about you." Oh theenks, Ross!
Ok so I didn't see miss Cusack with her husband and son at Sbux but she was dining at a restaurant down the street. Ben, Ham, and I were having dinner at Lux Bar and oh my word was that woman a HAG! Makeup does wonders for her! She had the same dessert as us cuz I feel like she was jealous of our fun and cuteness and wanted to be just like us. Joan and her family and I and my family (awww) devoured the Snicker's pie ice cream mountain thing and it was pretty much heaven (except for Joan's face cuz seriously NAST!)
Miss Deen was QUITE the diva. She was wearing a big white fur coat, full on glam makeup and I totally caught her smoking outside. CANCEROUS! She had that signature slightly endearing and definitely annoying accent. Whoever was with her ordered her drink and she just talked away with us prolly cuz she was super happy to be recognized.
Ok, this isn't much of a story. Hammy and I were shopping downtown and as we're walking out onto Michigan Ave., in walks Kim Coles. She was totally "Living Single" as she was by herself. She gave us this cute look like "You totally know who I am and guuurl you guys seem fun!"
Ok, so I don't know how I was the only employee to actually recognize him. He was with some other baseball players from the Yankees. Luckily our token bull dyke walks in for her shift and freaks out cuz she totally recognizes all three of them. Man, that dude looks like a baked potato.
Ok so even though my old college roommate Heather and I put on her last and biggest show at ISU with Fall Out Boy as the headliner (they were just a small Chicago band at the time) it was still pretty cool to see them post-fame. Even after all that success, they were still the same douche-bags I remember.
This guy could be considered an LP (little person). So. Fucking. Short.
That's pretty much exactly what he was wearing. Seemed pretty cool. Dirty Hippie.
My Chemical Romance was in town playing a show SO far away from the ritzy area they were staying in. Divalicious. One of my coworkers and I were the only people who knew who they were. Lauren really liked them so she asked me if she could pretend like she was tending to something out in the cafe to get close to them. I totally let her and she said she was too nervous to say hi but they were talking about farts.
Oh I just love him. He didn't say much but kept looking around to see if anyone noticed him. It turned me off a little but our relationship is about more than just his looks. He's funny and seems at least a smidge down-to-earth. He was WAY taller and scrawnier than I thought he'd be. He looks kinda "built" on the show. Not really in person...at all. I wanted to say something but didn't want to risk him thinking I'm a douche-bag or a member of Fall Out Boy.
He came in super-recently. I'm excited to see whatever movie he's filming so I can be like, "Omg thats right by my house!" or "That's where that hobo always hangs out and smells bad!" He was teeny-tiny. SO short, not as much as Mr. Costas but still. He was a petite man. If Ann Taylor Loft made men's clothes, he'd probably have to shop there. He grabbed a drink out of the RTD & E case before paying for it, started chugging and then started touching all the bananas frantically. I'm pretty sure that was his way of flirting with me. Alot of people thought he was homeless. Nope, he's just Giovanni Ribisi. | | comments: 5 comments or Leave a comment |

OMGZ CITY! I cannot WAIT until this semester is over. I need to get out of this damn town/school and out into the WORLD that so desperately needs me! Speaking of which, I was asked to audition in Chicago this Sunday for the Broadway, Los Angeles, New York, and First National (umm the bank? im not sure) productions of WICKED! I don't know the show really well but everyone seems to LOVE it. Anywho, I'm SUPER excited about just having a professional audition, regardless of the results! I'd better get someone to work for me or the iced quad grande half-calf organic 5 pump upside down marble mocha macchiatos I'll be making will be even more bitter than I'll be. Also, as many of you know, I'll be performing in Chicago at this theatre: 
I'm singing 16 bars and doing an amazingly funny monologue. All the seniors in the Acting Program auditioned and the head casting director for this theatre chose her faves. YAY for liking me! It's April 30th and the audience will be packed with every major agent in the citay! It's open to the public too so you should come!!! Also, my apartment mates and I are planning a huge house party with each of the 6 apartments having a different theme. SO much drinking and grilling and maybe me and you sneaking away to some downtown bars for a change of scenery and coming back even MOOOOORE scrumtiously wasted! I'll def keep you all informed of the date for this shindig! OKOKOKOK call me and love me and miss me and comment your lives away. Byez! | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |

| I had an interview today. There were three interviews before me and one right after me. My interviewer told me he planned to call us after he interviewed all 5. He told me, "I don't see any point in wasting your time so I'm just gonna tell you that if you still want it, the position is yours. There's no need to interview anyone else." So...

| | So i really need to start getting ready for class but as i was having my morning coffee i couldnt stop watching The View. Don't say it! I know...I used to hate it and I still wouldn't go so far to say I like it necessarily, but with that hideous beast of a woman, Star Jones, gone and Rosie O' Donnell taking over for Meredith...I can at least say it's certainly improved. I also hate to say that I actually like Rosie. I don't know what it is but she really puts Barbara Walters on edge and its HILARIOUS. So yeah, even though its still annoying as hell it IS daytime television and you can't exactly make that decent--it HAS to be annoying! I definitely suggest tuning in if you're able because watching Barbara cringe every single time Rosie says anything is a sparkling gem of entertainment! | | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment |

| OK, so I'm quite a creative young man. As much as I am looking forward to this assignment in my Realism class, I'm also kinda dreading it. I have a couple of random ideas but honestly, I need HELP! KAT, I WILL BE CALLING YOU LATER SO GET THINKING!!!! I want help from ALL of you but I know Kat will particularly enjoy helping me and if she doesnt I will MAKE HER ENJOY IT!!! P.S. This is due Tuez.
Autodrama Exercise
Perform what you believe to be the high points of your life in ten minutes. You can use lights, sound, film, video, other actors, props, costumes, or you can keep it as simple as you like.
You MUST fulfill the following 3 conditions:
1.) The presentation must be extremely personal. If you know that you are going to enter emotionally difficult areas of your life and that it will cause you pain, avoid them. But if you believe that the pain is something you would like to exploit because it's an area that might be useful to you later in your acting, try it.
2.) The presentation must be theatrical. You cannot stand there talking to the audience like a frozen puppy. Find a metaphor for your life, such as: "It seems I've been waiting tables my whole life." In that case, do your life from the time you're born waiting on tables.
3.) The presentation cannot go longer than 10 minutes and should not be less than that. This structure is to help the actor give the piece a coherent shape and to prevent rambling.
The presentation can be scripted or improvised. Referring to notes during the performance is permissible.
Oh, and we're supposed to keep the narrative down to a minimum...I'd prefer not to talk to the audience at all if poss...
So
