My Gram and Gramps at their eightieth birthday party

I want to be like this at 80 years old. My grandparents are the best on the planet. They listen to me, they make me laugh, and they are such an inspiration to me. I can't wait to see them at my bro's engagement party in a few weeks.

In other news...I had a meeting with another casting agency (having turned down the internship at Binder Casting where they were offering peanuts...like cashews or something, which can be expensive, but for 40 hours a week, not enough. Would my landlord take some cashews for rent, etc.). This one was a WAY different experience. After a while the woman stopped writing down my conflicts and said, "You are so ambitious. How about you get back to me in January." YES! This would be during pilot season. And would save me from going insane from my fall schedule. The internship is a flexible schedule and I would much more involved in the casting process. Also, she asked me for an acting resume and wants to contact my agents to see what I would be right for. Wouldn't that be ironic? Applying for an internship and I get an acting gig.

I had a rough night last night. I had to see "War In Paramus, or as I like to call it, "War In My Anus." I didn't get the part that I really, really, no really wanted. Though I come to realize that it is not much of a part. Nonetheless, because I have to work on the show (audience services) I have to attend practically every performance. So seeing the final dress last night was no picnic. The girl who got it is fine. Really. And then I saw the playwright tonight who said, and I quote, "You were really great in this. I mean that." WHAT? Then..um..why am I not up there?? But I was gracious, and offered my congratulations. One never knows, do one? Don't want to burn any bridges. Even though, as we all know, it is tempting at times.
