Employable

Great news! (seems to keep rolling in this time of year) I am employed for the next two days as overhire in New York at Eric Winterling's shop. This is one of the locations we visited two weeks ago with David. Currently the shop is working on the Ringling Brother's Circus and Lestate, the Elton John Vampire Musical. Both need to be shipped out fairly soon, hence the overhire. More likely than not I'll be applying some tedious amounts of trim to crinoline dressed or frock coats...or some other task too complicated to explain to the fabulous Russian stitchers and drapers there. Foot in the door. And more potential overhire work in the furture. I'd much rather work at Parsons-Meares with the painter/dyer or the milliner, but when you are a poor graduate given an oppertunity like this you do not pass it up.

And later this eveing I'll leave my critic of Brokeback Mountian and Light in the Piazza. I spend too much money whenever I go into NY.

Congrats! That's so awesome! rick-rack or whatever you said that YOU GLUED is going to be onstage on Broadway! Not to mention you'll be working with the fabulous Russian stitchers and drapers that will know your name and your work! That's so cool! I just hope they don't work you too hard in the time you have left before you come home to us!

Anxiously awaiting the review. That was a great voice message you left me! I was highly suspicious of the article as bullshit, but you probably couldn't tell because I posted it on my blog anyway. I felt it made a good point at the end about how many straight romances gay people have to sit through in the movies.
Soooo excited for you!

Oh, PS Brokeback Mountain apparently sweeping the Golden Globes, so good fer it.

I, on the other hand, am anxiously awaiting your review of Light in the Piazza since I have my doubts about the score--but nevermind that!!! What are you doing going to see something when Sweeney Todd is still unviewed? Sam! You're my only hope! My chosen representative! Don't let me down!

You're working on a musical about the vampire LEstat? that's awesome. I hope it doesn' suck--that's my favourite "vampire chronicle." At least we know the rick rack will be well glued. :)
