dear blog,

it is finals! I have just uploaded and printed the first draft of my play. this summer, i will write a second draft that will be completely different. meanwhile, last week i was in ohio for a goddaughter's first communion. this weekend, i will be in chicago for a nephew's first communion. oh, and it's finals, remember? I actually only have 1 twenty page paper (double spaced, luckily) left to write about tom sawyer and comparative mythology. yeah. i can do that. but, there's a lot riding on it. not only my grade, but if i do a good enough job on it, i may get a teaching assistantship next year. yeah, no pressure.

matt and i have started podcasting together. this grew out of my weekly live drawing session on ustream. i like having someone to banter with, and i liked recording it for people who missed it. i realized that when i watch other ustreams of cartoonists, i really just listen to them, so i thought really i wanted a podcast. you can find all this stuff at fns.

i haven't drawn my comic for over a week. i was always going to take this week off, but then last week, i got massively sick. I've been sick a lot this year. I'll be happy when summer comes and burns all the diseases away, as is my understanding of medical science.

things are progressing nicely with the girlfriend. the most common question we / i get is "when are you getting engaged?" all i'm gonna say is that I know the answer to the question, but i'm not saying.

today, is the performance of the dramatic reading i'm in! i'm excited! and dressed in black! and my hair is combed nicely. the things i do for art. i think it's gonna go well. i hope people come. i really love acting. i missed it so much. i found out from a friend that next year GREAT theater is doing both wonka and the producers. I loved being wonka and it's been my lifelong dream (well, as long as it was possible) to be Leo Bloom in the producers. I have contacted the guy in charge and I'm so gonna audition for both plays. I wanna be a producer....
