Crammed and Ready

Well, last night I finally finished the preparations long overdue to accomodate the BM.

I dismantled my living room shelves, too many books, not enough but still plenty DVDs, and shoved them into my bedroom. I moved the bed from a East/West angle to a North/South angle and I love it. It gives a much needed change to the room, making it mine, as well as actually opening up space. Which was then taken up by massive piles of objects. Now to just find an appropriate book shelf and I'll be good.

Funny, too, but while married, we always complained that the bedroom had no design, it was just a room with a bed, and used solely for what a couple uses a bed for. Now, with the redesign, and the extra items, it is taking on a little more room feel. Who knew?

Great night last night. Had my acting teacher's book signing. A great crowd came out, and many of them were people I have seen around, but last night, they were coming up to me, and making chat. I really felt part of the group. It has only been 11 weeks in class, but doing the competition show, and doing it again next week has given me some legs up on the who's who ladder. It really felt great. Also, the arrogant girl who wouldn't let me kiss her was there, and made eye contact, and displayed some interesting low status characteristics. I think she is now intimidated by me because I wouldn't fall for her "I'm the prettiest in the land" routine. Then again, I'm usually wrong when it comes to women, so who knows.

My brother called today and he is coming into town next week. It will be good to see him, though it is always a bit of a chore. We are two very different people. He will get to see my show, and I think he will love it, so I look forward to that. Then he wants me to take off Saturday night. I told him I couldn't afford it, really. He asked how much I made on my best night, and I told him $150. He said take it off, and he will write me a check for $200. I told him that the restaurant is having a promotion right now, and it will be tough getting it off. He said, take the extra $50 from the two hondo, and pay it to someone to work. What an ass. I'm totally going to try, though.

Also, KK wants to start writing with me. Sit-Com stuff. I have been waiting to write with him for a long time. I tried to do it when he first moved here, but he was too busy building a company that would get him a life of luxury. LOL

Anyway, he is getting back into it, and talking about collaboration. I think we would make great partners, both for our similarities (self-deprecating, neurotic, intelligent wit) and our differences (he is steeped in pop culture, and commercial, I am out of touch, and alternative). I think the sit-com is a great starting point. Don't you, KK?
