So today there were lotsa people over to assist in ‘s attempt to sort these books out before the next convention.
Lots of fun, and while they were at it, I made a nice salad, with ‘s assistance, of course.
Tonight will be the final showing of CST’s “She Stoops to Conquer” at 9pm. This will mark the finale of probably the best show I’ve been in, and possibly the hardest part I’ve had to play ever.
It’s bound to be a blast.
Come one, come all.
Ok, it seems I have a serious problem updating my LJ – I am a bit lazy.
Go figure.
A lot of events are happening in my life, and if you are one of the privileged, you know about the most recent one – the bike trip.
It was a lot of fun except for the one thing, and that kind of kept going much after the trip and is still painful.
On the much brighter side, the CST production of “She Stoops to Conquer” only has three shows left! Tonight, Monday, this Thursday and our closing night is on Saturday. If anyone needs details, let me know.
It’s a great show, with a great cast, with our own problems and quirks, but it all makes up the wonderful comedy that it should.
I’ve never really had to play the “straight guy” while everyone in the audience gets a good laugh. Keeping a straight face is harder than you could ever imagine.
I also realize it’s been forever since the last podcast – and I hope to rectify this soon. Life is a little messy these days and I need a break in order to put the puzzle pieces back together and get everything in order again. It could take some time.
Another thing that has been surfacing in my upper thoughts is the possibility of leaving the country for a more reasonable place to live. It has been my opinion that Israel is determined to make life extra difficult for you. Now, don’t go shouting “The grass is greener!” etc. but I really think that if something can be made difficult, it is. I always thought life was meant to be enjoyed, not suffered. If anyone knows of some decent job-finding sites for the hi-tech expert in the USA, let me know. Not that I am committing to anything just yet, but I’d like to know what’s out there.
I’ve begun catching up on blogs that I should – and here’s my friend Chava‘s perspective – interesting and fresh. Have fun!
I relaize it’s been a while since I posted, and more since my last podcast.
I’ve also not read my friends’ LJ’s and have been out of the loop for a bit.
I’ve been extremely busy with a lot of things in my life – primarily work, and then there’s my lovely lady of course, and theater rehearsals, which will continue intul June.
I don’t know why I submit to this abuse – it might have something to do with the fact that I enjoy it. :S
I’ve also picked up a couple of online games – namely www.ogame.org and www.vendetta1923.com. Point of advice: don’t even start on Vendetta. The game mechanics are slow, the system isn’t well defined enough.
A lot of people have joined the alliance I am in on OGame, though, so a shout goes out to you guys & gals.
In any case, I hope to have a few minutes to post details of my upcoming production of CST’s “She Stoops to Conquer” – a comedy of which hilarity took a double dosage of – and hope to see you all there.
Until next time, I remain Mike The Man.
Just a few minutes before SuperBowl 40.
It’s late at night, and I’ll be awake until morning to see the end.
Not really sure which team I’m rooting for yet, but it’s bound to be interesting, either way.
I’m joined by (who’d rather be asleep, that’s for sure. 🙂 ) and a co-worker, who’s coming over to experience the game for the first time (IIRC).
Hope you’re up and enjoying the game!
Hey everyone.
I know it’s been over a week since the last show – I hope to have another along soon.

Thanks a million, and keep in touch!
Probably, indubitably, the BEST Blonde Joke, ever to be made.

Almost a full three years passed since, and still it’s weird.
I’m kind of wondering what else is going to happen.
To those who are older than three years of age, and have known me for that long, know that I was dating someone over three years ago and it ended a bit badly (for a given value of “bit”).
In any case, about a month later, I opened this online rag where I began to spew forth my words to whomever cared, as I most certainly didn’t.
Fast forward two years.
I was dating another lady, I’m sure you all know her, and it all came to an end six months ago.
Now, I am dating a lovely woman, and I go to the first night of rehearsals for a new show that I’ve been cast in.
Ex from 2003 is there. Ex from 2005 is directing (but I knew that. I’ve already come to terms with all that). Now I can’t help but wonder what is going to happen next. Will some other skeleton from the past come out and surprise me?
In any case, all that strangeness aside, it was a good rehearsal and it’s a wonderfully hilarious show.
You must come see it. I’ll post show dates soon, so keep your pencils sharpened.
Hope your life isn’t as weird as mine!
All these MEME things get really tiresome sometimes.
But, having been tagged by my dear friend PurpleParrot in her post here, I hereby answer the infamous MEME4 behind this lovely cut.
Four jobs I’ve had in my life:
Four movies I could watch over and over:
Four places I’ve lived:
Four TV Shows I Love to watch:
Four places I have been to on vacation:
Four websites I visit daily: (altho thanks to RSS, these are dropping steadily)
Four of my favorite foods:
Four places I’d rather be:
Four books I’ll read over and over again:
Ok, now that I’m finally done with that crap, I’m tagging a few others to wade through these questions themselves. Herein, let it be known that: , , , and are hereby asked to do the same.
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
