A Few of My Daily Things

A few things from today:

First off, this morning, the radio in my head was playing extra loud. First up on the radio? "Under the Sea" from The Little Mermaid. It was a weird mix of the movie and the Broadway version. I know. Then, because this guy in my grammar class has a National Guard backpack, that song that they play before movies, "Citizen Soldier," got stuck in my head. Classy.

I just finished the fourth draft of my play "Love's Call." It is also fully blocked now! The actor's, without any rehearsal of merit (we've been strictly blocking...I hate mixing up different parts of the process all together), have already shown me a great deal of growth. I am very pleased. Plus, everyone loves Daniel's diabetes monologue in Act II. One of my actors (who has diabetes) leaned down to me after it was done and asked me if I secretly had it. That's always what you want to hear. I consider that a slam dunk. Anyway, taking the next few days off because they are all going to be at GTC.

I've been reading the Watchmen. Not really in preparation for the movie (because things will be different and that's always disappointing). Rather, it's just one of those things that I feel like I should have read. And a lot of people have been raving about it to me. So, I borrowed K'Fain's copy. I don't know yet. I'm about five volumes in (12 volume set)...maybe it's just that the graphic novel form doesn't really appeal to me. I don't read a lot (meaning, I don't read any) of them. And it's distracting. But maybe, by the end, it will prove me a liar. Besides, it's a departure from The Night Trilogy which I read last weekend (you know, because it was Fall Break...).

Anything else...? I don't think so right now. So I leave you with a hilarious video that I was thinking about earlier today. Click here.
