for good times, make it simple times


amy sedaris strikes again with her new book, "simple times : crafts for poor people"
for people who know of amy, her genius goes without saying, but the fact that this awesome how-to has a yellow cover, just puts it way over the top for me. must. have. now.

the beer snob is back

i've been neglecting this little blog as of late, but i'm feeling a sudden surge of motivation thanks to a literary kick in the arse from my good buddy kim, who incidently authors a great site entitled, crowcrastination . After being delighted by a slew of new posts from kim, i decided it was time to check out my neglected page. upon that inspection, i decided the name and theme change i had made a few months prior wasn't working for me. I also realized that i wanted to get back into telling stories from my life, not updating all the people who don't really care about what has, or in my case hasn't , been going on.

bad news travels fast

due to the cryptic nature of my last blog post, I feel the need to clarify. Since the news has hit, i guess there is nothing left to hide. my company, american musical theatre of san jose, has gone bankrupt :( before you go posting messages of sympathy and well wishes let me say 2 things: 1. yes, it totally sucks. It sucks for all the people who have had to clean out their desks. it sucks for the city of San Jose: 75 years of musicals are no more. it sucks for the loyal patrons. 2. there may still be some hope for me and some of my box office peeps. I like games, but the waiting game is the worst one i ever played.
