Last show today at 2:30 for The Fabulous Fable Factory. Always a little sad when a show comes to an end. #
Tomorrow I will start a diet and exercise regime. I need to lose some weight. #
Tomorrow's diet and exercise is just part of a daily routine I need to set up for myself. Work harder on my acting job. Yes! It is a job. #
@RominaEspinosa told me to break a leg last week for my audition. I was thrilled. She is so pretty! I think I'm in love. Don't tell my wife! in reply to RominaEspinosa #
Well I guess I should leave @Starbucks at Colony Square for my 1:00 cast call at the @AllianceTheatre in the Black Box. #
Just booked an extras gig for @TPS_Extras. Tyler Perry's next movie. #

Sitting at Joes with a few members of the cast of The Fabulous Fable Factory. Well that’s about it. #

Nothing worse than being jobless, broke and without A/C. I wonder if employment in London is any better. #
Nothing like a good bit of Trance/Progressive music to bring me out of a funk. #
Teachers. One of my favorite British TV shows. Book Club is a very close second. #

If I setup multiple twitter accounts, then I can argue with myself. One account for each voice in my head…. That's a lot of accounts. #
As some of you may know, I have a contract position at company in Norcross as a QA Analyst. The contract ends next Friday, job hunting I am. #
I had two interviews earlier this week, but both companies decided to go with someone who had more automated testing experience than I. D'OH #

Small of Her Back wrap up

A very good play by Dana Lynn Formby, who was in town the Monday before we opened. She loved what we had done with her play. Afterwards, we went out for drinks and had a great time. There is always the risk that the directors vision of a play is not what the playwright had in mind and tensions can arise. The cast can be nervous as well: Will she like my character I developed? Will I remember all my lines? We all called for lines, but it is a little embarrassing when calling for the lines in front of the playwright.

This is the second playwright I was able to meet. Back in December, I met Josh Tobiessen when he was at the Alliance. We were doing two of his plays: Spoon Lake Blues and Election Day.

The cast in The Small of Her Back did a great job for the four shows. Of the four shows, the first two were Sold Out! And the third nearly was. Sunday was smaller but still half a house.
