I’ve posted the first wave of photos from Greece! Hopefully, I’ll be able to get the next few batches up tomorrow. This first bunch is essentially just pictures of me and Chungy, coupled with excessive silliness in regards to captions.
Huh. I thought I’d make callbacks, at least.
Ah, well. It doesn’t necessarily mean I wasn’t cast. I wasn’t called back for The Pajama Game and I ended up with a principal role. Of course, that was accidental, as I had Jesuit rehearsals during the normal audition time and they misplaced my audition sheet. They had intended to call me back. Whatever.
I know that I’ve had more than my fair share of juicy roles, but still. Little Shop has been my favourite musical since I was eight. Somehow it never occured to me that I might not get cast.
I’ll find out after midnight on Sunday. Nothing I can do now.
Link ganked from DeeDee: Vatican Newspaper asserts Intelligent Design is not science.
Sure, Intelligent Design comes the closest to my personal belief system, but still. Mwaha! Bully for Ratzinger!
*chokes on fried rice*
Hilarious fanvid rec! Spike’s journey of redeption to I Can Change from the South Park movie, by the same girl that beat me to vidding a Spangel “The More You Ruv Someone.” :D
And dude! A handful of theatres (none near me, alas) are planning additional Serenity screenings.
For Katie Holmes’ birthday, Tom Cruise got her a collection of all of his movies on DVD. How very Gilderoy Lockhart of the man!
Also? BEST COMMERCIAL EVER.
Question for the Whovians: So the new Doctor Who is finally airing in the US, on the Sci-Fi Channel. Hurrah! And presumably, judging from the choice of Doctors in their layouts, we’re going to be getting new episodes. Are they going to air all of the last season before going on to the new season, or starting with the new season, or some other bizarre permutation? Is there going to be a delay between the UK airdates and the US?
Dude! Jane Espenson has a blog!
Flubbed a bit on the singing portion, but I feel I did quite well on the acting portion and when they tested my range. I’ll find out if I made callbacks Friday after midnight!
*snorks* My Crime Cinema professor’s accent cracks me up. He’s very French, but he tries to speak with an “American” accent, overemphasizing his R’s. The first day of class, I couldn’t help but hear Spike’s “I’m a friend of Xandurr’s” whenever he spoke.
Today, he spoke about the French silent film Les Vampires. He said “Vampires” the American way, with the long “i” sound, but instead of emphasizing the first syllable, he emphasized the second, which to my fandom-addled brain reminded me of Andrew. The greatest moment was when he made reference to “Irma Vep, leader of… The Vampires” in exactly the same intonation Andrew introduced “Buffy, slayer of… the Vampires” in “Storyteller.” I’m too easily amused, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.
And now, off to get ready for Little Shop of Horrors auditions! Bwee!
Whee! Sold another old textbook on Half.com! Total cash recouped: $155.89!
Wow, how psychological of me! I was being all petulant and frustrated about being deprived of My Shows, with the news about The Inside and the fact that last night’s Lost episode wasn’t up on iTunes until this morning. Even though I’d been so disenchanted with the show, my desire to watch the show to spite The Man was even greater. As a result, once I finally got to see it, I enjoyed it a great deal more than I probably would have in a different frame of mind. I am such a tool. XD
Thoughts:
First, Mr. Clean Locke wins for his “Who are we to tell anyone what they can or can’t do?” comment. THANK YOU FOR SAYING TO JACK WHAT NEEDED TO BE SAID. Not your show, Jack! You were supposed to be killed off in the Pilot!
Second, Jin/Sun (or maybe Jin/Sun/Hat) is SO my Lost OTP, pending Hurley/Whatserface. Charlie, stop being a moron and I’ll give you a second chance.
Lastly, the folks on TWOP are calling for a ninja army. Mwaha!
In other news, I’m looking at DVD Recorders, rather than a VCR. Does anyone have experience with them? How important is it to get one with a hard drive?
