Who's Afraid Indeed
Tuesday is the audition for Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf at Kelsey. I've worked up a monologue from An Empty Plate at the Cafe du Grand Boeuf. I wanted to find one from Woolf, but George really doesn't have to much in the way of monologues. I don't know this director although I've done a number of shows at the theater so it should be interesting. I suppose I'll begin getting real ego invested after the audition, as is my wont. For now, it's just nice to know I have an appointment at a theater on Tuesday and hence an excuse to be there as other than an audience member.
BTW, these posts get sent automatically to Facebook so if you want to see them as well as other stuff from me and my "friends" go over to Facebook.com and search under my name. You may need to join to get a look though. Speaking of Facebook, although I have a lot of people who have given me permission to view their pages ("friends"), I still sometimes feel like a lurker. Not with the people my age understand, it's more with the youngins. I usually don't write anything in response to their posts or chat them up because I'm concerned they'll be grossed out by the mere proximity of age and decrepitude near their pages. Every once in a while one writes me though, so that's nice. I must say though I've begun feeling seriously old when I read the energetic stuff a lot of my young friends are engaged with. That's probably the greatest thing about youth; the boundless energy and endless optimism that there is time. Speaking of time though, it's short just now cause I've got to go to a wedding.

And I understand somewhat how you feel about Facebook. It's harder for me because I have a hard time remembering I'm no longer a teenager myself, so I often get in trouble for the wolf whistles or comments about short shorts. :-p There's some line about 18-year-olds, "Best thing about them... I get older and they stay 18!"
Oh, by the by, I was looking through my sets of jeans for laundry day and I found that I had the cord part of one of your ties from Taming. I could have sworn that I'd handed it back in, but I was apparently wrong. I don't suppose you're planning to go to any of the Lear performances?

I don't think I'll get to see Lear; too much going on over the weekends. Congrats on the role at HPP. I love being in musicals and I'm sure it will be a blast! You can put the cord in an envelope and mail it if it's not too much trouble. Mail to 200 S. Clinton St., Doylestown, PA 18901 Thanks!
