t1. I'm booking the theater time for my second play. I've put this thing off long enough. I now have my director, who is a good friend who I can trust, and he is excited to work with me again, having been one of the lead actors in the first one. We're going to meet every week to figure out what it is these characters want, and what should happen to them. That's the part where I always need help, and once I'm there, the dialog comes out beautifully, so I'm excited to get to that point again. Look to be in Chicago in Early October of next year, or whenever we decide to do it. I'll let you know in the next couple of weeks.
2. I've been sick for a few days, and I've been watching way, way too much mixed martial arts. I have even been researching stuff like muay thai and all kinds of styles of kneeing people in the face that I, personally, will never employ. It's the most interested I've been in sports since the 1990's when the Chicago Bulls were good and those sporadic season when the Chicago Cubs get my hopes up before remembering that they suck and showing their true colors: red, white, blue, and suck.
3. I have plans to go to my mom and dad's place for taco night, and I just can't cancel due to illness because I keep hearing this in my head: "Son, you've made a mockery of taco night." That was an article from The Onion, the snarky, Madison, Wisconsin based phony story publication, and I just can't bail on my folks and live up to that article. So, time to suck it up . . .

Nice! Keep us updated on the play shenanigans! I live in Milwaukee, so that'll be nice and close. Oh and as a Milwaukeean/Madison grad, I appreciate the Onion shout out.
Get well get well soon, we wish you to get well!
i frequently forget how much i love the onion. i'd better not get started reading it or im going to be posting links on my friends facebooks all night.
A play? How exciting! you'll have to get someone to film it and Youtube it for us bloggers on the other side of the world.
This would be an excellent excuse to get me back to Chicago. Definitely keep us posted.
Org: I'll be letting everyone know when it hits the stage for sure. I'm almost all better. Nausea is gone. I'll take any symptom short of butt-bleeding over that one. Too much? Probably, but nobody reads these comments after another one's gone live anyway.
Jov; Yeah, some articles I'll always remember for some reason. Those perspectives used to be so much more funnier, but the rag seems to ebb and flow with funniness, kinda like this one.
Steph: We filmed one performance last time, but it didn't really do it justice. I'll see what I can do for you for vids this time around.
Jenni: For sure. Bring the swank and the skank.
I'm finally reading this comment and enjoying the butt-bleeding...or the fact that butt-bleeding is NOT a symptom.
