Resurfacing II

Ooops. Here I am again.... It is embarrassing that I find myself compelled to apologize for the dearth of posts here at FARRAGO lately. I haven't often — if at all — mentioned the other play I was cast in during the run of Lucky Stiff, a drama called Vanishing Points, but we went into rehearsals in earnest mid-January. We closed a four-week run last night. (See reviews here.) Coupled with trying to make rent each month in the taxi, I am left with little time to write.

During the run of Vanishing Points (photos to soon follow) I was also cast in a return to NEIU's stage, an April production of A Tale of Two Cities in which I will portray the evil Marquis de St. Evremonde. Busy? To say the least.

Oddly enough, there haven't been too many new stories from the back seat to share here. Either nothing much of note has been happening, or I'm just becoming desensitized to what does happen back there. Either way, I haven't been inspired much to tell any tales. Perhaps I will.

In any case, I'll probably throw a few things up here in the coming weeks, but as ATOTC gains speed before take-off, be certain I'll disappear again. I'm considering taking the summer off from my pursuit of an acting career and focusing on earning a living, paying rent, and reconnecting with my other passions and friendships. Do stay with me, if I haven't lost you already.

Congrats on the stage work! That's great!

I would love to get my son involved in some local musicals, but he won't. He wouldn't even gift his beautiful voice to try out on American Idol when they were in town in the fall.

My life sucks lately. I'm very depressed and bitter.

Basically my boss is retiring the end of the quarter (this week), and they're replacing him in Boston, so Amye went bye-bye last week.

Bitches. I retaliated by erasing all the files I created, including ongoing spreadsheets & presentations and my boss's current expense log. (I actually placedg them on a disc.)

And they're keeping the bitch who spends all day playing on Facebook, Perez Hilton, and texting. But she's BFF with our HR person, and babysits my boss's grandchildren.

Congrats on all the plays - too bad they don't earn a living for you!

I will enjoy seeing photos from the play and hearing about anything else you deem interesting. You can't lose me.

More people need to start resurfacing. Tonight I'm blogging like it's 2005.

Still here.

And looking forward to the tales.
