one goodbye is never enough

kie: 21218-2845
kiel: warm and fuzzy (that could be the wine)
kio: tango : el pato loco (the tango song from 'two for the tango')

picture this:

you, i, and a few other writers are in a brainstorming meeting with a big-time producer. pizza on the table, half-empty two liters of coke distributed in office-style styrofoam cups. you just finish taking a big bite out of your cup, when someone says:
'okay, you know the book treasure island? okay, how about we set that in SPACE and call it TREASURE PLANET!'
silence.
the producer replies:
'when can we start?'

okay now i got that out of my system. i just saw a commercial for disney's next cash cow and had to let that go.

recently i've been drinking a glass of wine every night. it's rather relaxing. and supposedly good for you. though i doubt any studies included franzia chillable red. that's the name. it doesn't even include the type of grape. it's just chillable red. at least they're honest.

okay the verb: to side.
as in put up siding.
i side. yesterday i sided? i have sided?
i side. yesterday i sid? i have sidden?
dictionary.com says sided. but i think it should be analagous to hide, since they both come from old/middle english. these are the kinds of things i think about.

ok. so baltimore actors is doing the following productions in the next two months: oklahoma, babes in toyland, and jekyll and hyde. guess who is in all three. yeah. and i'm not saying that to brag, although i have been known to have a bit of a swagger. it's that i TOLD them NO! then they were like oh please oh please we NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED you. well, that's sort of a lie. i almost got out of babes in toyland. til i found out that i was going to be given the lead. now the show takes place at the kraushaar auditorium at goucher. now this auditorium is huge. and apparently babes is a major baltimore event and all 3 shoes (2 saturday, one sunday) get sold out. i just couldn't say no, even though that week i have a molecular evolution presentation, a thermo exam, and a biochem exam and mol. ev. paper due that following monday. yay!

so yeah originally i was supposed to play will for one show and that was that. well, now i'm going to play ali hakim, the peddler, in 4 shows, and possibly will parker in others. yeesh.

law & order was good tonight. it was about a court-appointed defense lawyer that gets whacked by a white-supremacist group. i love that show. and also, elisabeth röhm is hot. i hope she sticks around. grrowr. the people call for remand. without clothes!

so jim came by today. and tore up the back of the house and put it back together. and now our door is no longer a door and the door that wasn't a door is now our door. come over and see it it's actually pretty cool. also, he fixed the lights in the basement, and kelly's toilet, and the shower. about time.

i am rather pleased with this entry. i seem to have regained my random journalvoice.
