NY Gay Pride Is Upon Us
Obviously, first things first!
My audition yesterday went flawlessly! Other than a major train problem on my way there (which left me covered in sweat from running in between hundreds of people in Times Square), everything went perfectly. I arrived JUST in time and went in to do my reading. I really prepared for this audition and had the lines memorized and even created my own backstory for my character. I guess it went well, cuz when I finished, the director and his assistants sat there with their jaws wide-open and said “Wow”. I kind of blushed and they said “We will DEFINITELY call you”. Beaming with pride, I got up to walk out of the room when the director stopped me and said “Would you be interested in reading for another part that I have in a different play?” I was like “WHAT!? YES!” I gotta tell you, when I walked out of the audition I was on cloud 9. Or even cloud 142. Having not auditioned in forever, it was really difficult for me to break the ice on this whole process. It was almost like the whole thing was being done by someone else and I was hovering above my body watching it unfold. Of course, now I wait to see if they really do call me and offer me a part, but even if they don’t…I could not have done that audition any better than I did. And if anything, I reaffirmed to myself that I am a talented actor that has experience and knowledge in the field. I’m definitely in this city for the right reason. If only I could be offered the opportunity to explore this dream even further.
With the audition over, I can now focus on the next important thing in my life. GAY PRIDE 2006! Tonight I’m off to a gay guy bar with some friends to hang out and maybe meet a cute boy. Tomorrow night, I’m off to my friend Tessa’s apartment to introduce Tyler to her new puppy, Otto. My hope is that they will get along famously and become instant best friends. Saturday night I have the pier party which will consist of about 1,000 lesbians and me. Then Sunday is the parade and putting the final touches on a crazy and exciting week.
Best part? When this week is over…my birthday is just around the corner. And I’ve got so much planned for that, I can’t even get into it yet. The next two weeks are going to be absolutely fantastic and considering the last two weeks I’ve had, it couldn’t come at a better time.
Um, y’all? I’m going to be 29 years old. I’m not that bothered by it overall. Mostly, I’m just worried that I won’t have a HUGE BLOWOUT of a 30th birthday party. Ay yi yi. Only Joe CuttheShit would start to worry about a birthday that is over a year away. But I digress. I’m getting older and although I don’t look any older than I did at 25, inside I know that I’m growing up; that I’m moving on to the next phase of my life. That’s craptastic.
Finally…some things you may not know, but need to be made aware of:
1) David Hasselhoff is on the new “America’s Got Talent” and he is the biggest fucking loser on the planet. I DETEST dorks with power. DETEST. The show itself was quite amusing, but if it wasn’t for Brandy (yes THAT Brandy), sitting next to David and telling him to shut the fuck up every five minutes, I wouldn’t be able to stomach even a second of it.
2) I don’t care what the reviews said, Kiss, Kiss, Bang, Bang is by far one of the WORST movies I’ve seen in a LONG time. It’s a piece of trash. Val Kilmer is still on my good side, but I could do without seeing Robert Downey Jr. in another movie for as long as I live. Member when he was so cute and promising in Chances Are and Chaplin? Well, he snorted that talent up his nose, out his ass and into the toilet. I find him to be absolutely cringe worthy.
3) The Hills on MTV is so fucking ridiculous and hilarious. If you’ve ever got a free half an hour…watch this shit. You will laugh your ass off at how LAME our society has become. These people consider themselves “CELEBRITIES”? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. OMG. In ten years, these bitches are going to WISH they didn’t look as highly on themselves as they do. TOOLS – the lot of them.
4) I don’t know about you, but has anyone realized how HOT Timbaland has gotten? Holy fucking shit. That dude used to be fatty big, but now he’s buff big and the word on the street is that he’s going to compete in an upcoming bodybuilding competition in Miami. Um. His beats were fly before, but NOW, SO fly I just came in my pants.
5) I’m still absolutely infuriated by Nelly Furtado’s new album. What happened to my hot little Latina, folk singer? She’s still hot and she’s still Latina, but what happened to her creative and edgy songs? This R&B phase is pissing me the fuck off. I’m totally slapping her in the ass when I see her. She needs a good reprimanding. Unless she her goal was to cater to the 13 year old girls of the world. In which case, I’ll pack up my fandom and walk away without turning back.
That’s it for today.
Have a good one!
