today's plans

I'm buying a planner today, on paper. Because god bless the digital organizer, but a it doesn't lay things out in front of me, it doesn't provide a way for me to meaningfully scan over my week, and it's just not working for auditions and appointments and the like.

Meanwhile, I've applied for an excellent, paying stage management job, that if I got it, would solve a lot of problems (I'd be employed for the forseeable future, and would have time to go to the major adutions and take classes during the day). _Please_ think good thoughts, as the timing wouldn't hurt either.

I'm seeing Young Adam tonight at the film festival, something I am approaching with significantly, but not entirely, less dread than Dogville. However there's a sex scene apparently involving ketchup that will worry me if it doesn't squick me. Heh. Weird year for films, yeah.

Meanwhile, it seems unlikely I will be able to do the 14-hour LotR marathon everyone else I know will be doing, because I'll be in transit from the wedding. Luckily, they'll be doing it again at LIncoln Center in January with the director and actors present, so I may just save up and go to that.

I am also reminded yet again, that I really need to go see Lost in Translation.

I also have an audition today, that I suspect will be ... scattered.

Have to go see my mom now.

( witness my sophisitcation. not. )

( sometime later, K tells me how I will know when I've really made it )

it's not a big deal

But it's a relief to me.
I got cast in a NYFA silent short.
I've been in sort of an internal tizzy about my inability to get any sort of screen time over the last several months (yes, I am a person who can always find something to be in an internal tizzy about).

More of a big deal to me is a possible revivial of the musical Chess on Broadway. (You know how I say I don't want to be on Broadway? Chess is one of a very few musicals that makes me have that dream. But seriously, I'd just be happy to see the show as I never have.). That said, all this whinging about the book of it not making sense -- it works fine... it's just never worked here fine, which should say something. http://www.playbill.com/news/article/82082.html
