Okay.  So I've been incommunicado for a reason, which is that I'm getting divorced and I had an elderly relative who was the world's coolest person and I didn't want that fact getting back to her when she was already having a rough time, so there.

To catch everyone up on the really important stuff - at least as far as this blog is concerned - I now live IN LOS ANGELES!  Well, Van Nuys, but close enough.  I'm a local!  I have arrived!  And within the first week, I booked!  That's right, my curious readers (all four of you) - I'm doing another infomercial for Sylmark.  I always enjoy working with them (this is my third time) and this is no exception.  This is a rough shoot though - I have to go Christmas shopping with their money.  Seriously.  It's rough, this actor life.

What else - well, our show at Second City is going really well.  It's still in development but Seven Crackers and a Brownie is getting very very good audience feedback.  Yes, I love the title of our show/group - we're an extremely irreverent bunch.  We also have a myspace page, so those of you who like the myspace should look us up!

Also, last week Terry and I (yes, the same Terry I'm splitting with, we're going stay in touch, everyone take the word "husband" and do a search-and-replace with the word "friend" in your brains...) went to a screening of the fabulous film Broken Windows - it's really very good.  The director, Tony Hickman, is a very very talented man, as well as very handsome and sweet.   The casting's not half bad either...   I have ANOTHER screening coming up - it seems Disfigured is now finished, Glenn Ger's pet project - very excited to see that film!  Much improv in that as well as myself in light goth/punk makeup/dress.    Can't wait to see how that looks.  Who knew I'd have such an affinity for smudged black liquid eyeliner?  And a FABULOUS script, great people - really excited.

Other than that, I've just been settling in, love my new apartment - finally got my internet access today so I'm blogging.   My plans are to rehearse our sketch show, do a couple mailings, continue the theatrical agent hunt, and look into some classes.  I really want to take Stuart K. Robinson's commercial class, but I also REALLY would like to get into a good on-camera class.  I may have to actually get a job.  Eep!
