listening to streaming radio from Yorkshire (Leeds), just to hear additional British North accents. Have an audition in a few hours. #
I have not practiced as much as I should have on the accent, but I think I can do it well enough for the audition. #
On a side note, I did get my wordpress blog to act like the rest of my website. Javascript conflict between two libraries. #
Did not hear back from my audition on Sunday for The 5th Great Ape at Emory. It did sound like they had everybody they needed already. #
I believe I have 2 stage shows (June and August performances) and the audition tonight and on May 16th both fit perfectly between those two. #
Rehearsals for Once in a Lifetime (June performance) starts this Saturday. And I am 90% sure I have a role in the play for August. #
Streaming radio Yorkshire UK. It’s after 10PM and it’s all music I have heard before, but feels very different because of is source location #
In case you were wondering, Leeds United Reserve Team won their championship game today. #
I have a call back for the role of Major Metcalf in The Mousetrap. #
Of three people up for Major Metcalf – Bob Smith, George Crolius and myself, I am, in my mind, the least likely looking British Army Retiree #

there is nothing like Ohana getting you to follow him to the cat box and having him wait while you clean it out for him. funny. #
Cali has done that as well. “Follow me my minion and clean my box so I can poop” #
