Well what a night... went to manchester to watch Richard Herring at the Frog and Bucket... and very nearly saw what may have been his last night alive. Lol... nah it wasnt that bad, but let's just say some of the crowd didn't 'appreciate' some of his act. Myself and my table, however, loved it all, although I'd heard some of it before.



Richard Herring... starting well!

It's the first lot of auditions today for my two one act plays that the Welch has written... I suddenly realised this morning how little time I have for these... monday and tuesday evenings are taken up with my new job... every night at the theatre is being used... blah! I'll fit it in somehow... I've woken up with a sore neck today which is making driving difficult...
ugh
be reet
have a great day

yeah, things are really strange and also shitty in places right now.. I am, as the song goes 'all cried out'... and all talked out so I'm not gonna fill you in just yet.. needless to say, I'm stupid.

WOWEE!
What a week!
It's been MAAAAAAADness.
Went back to Manchester last night with Beth, Chris and Doug, via Yorkshire to watch their friend Seymour do a gig.. loads of fun! Having a great time experiencing this side of life I'd always been too scared to try before.



This what happens when you hang out with a load of comics... you set on fire!




Bron and Chris!




Bron and Beth! Freaking each other out... or maybe it was Doug that did all that?=



Bron and Doug... the cheeky cockney chappie



Bron and Jo! I went to Uni with Jo.. turns out she's a good friend of Chris's! The world is indeed a small place



Doug has to resort to desperate measures

Just googled myself cos I'm avoiding all this marking I have to do and found me on this page:

And check out my new pal... the ginger god that is... Chris Brooker (good pal of the lovely Beth)

What a fun fun FUN night!
I went round to my friend, Beth's, and was then kidnapped by her and her friend Chris off to Manchester to the Frog and Bucket comedy club where I had an excellant time. Got to watch Beth for the first time, and she rocked. It was so great to see her looking so comfortable and working the crowd like the pro she is... great stuff. Also got to dance with Chris, which was, interesting... there was no music at the time I dont think... I am still trying to convince him that one day i will be able to knee myself in the groin - then that day he will have to fulfill his side of the deal and do a cartwheel, into a crab, then into a worm... shoudl be fun.

back to the hum drum.. although I got a call today from an agent who may want me to do some work with/for her... so we'll see.
have been invited to someone's house... right now... I may go... i have had a bit of a hair disaster today though so am not TOO keen on leaving the house... plus I've still not finished unloading the car from last night *sigh*
No word from the bank on my money! I will have to call them.. I'm getting very short on the stuff...

i miss my texan ... :(

Tonights match went well... I really love being at the football club... even though we only had 10 people in the audience it's just so much more 'in your face' and 'real'... I dont like playing csz at the theatre anymore... I KNOW I'm in the minority with it, but I can't help it... it just makes me miserable.
Hilarious scene from tonight that took place in my house! Vey funny... as it was such a small crowd the majority of people there knew me! lol ... so the understood straight away why the stage was suddenly strewn with crap and Emily was being my sister moaning at me... hilarious.
So funny I've actually saved the sketch to send to my parents!
So we nearly made a loss but enough people there didn't have leaflets so we were just about OK mullah wise... so I can sleep OK



see the difference in faces... compare me to last week!

I am officially of 'normal' weight!
Just checked my body mass index and I'm healthy and normal... when have I EVER been normal? hehe
Had a fun night wiht some of the CSz gang... me, seanie, vicki and her pal all went to Tescos and bought a barBQ and we made veggie burgers, and then real sausages and marshmellows on it... lots of fun.. interspersed with playing 'Peer Pressure Jackass' with Ste Martin. Basically we just got him to do dangerous and stupid things for our amusement... and then we filmed it! My favourite had to be eating fire... and the ash! Ho ho ho... fun night
Put me in a better frame of mind for the match tomorrow night.. i think we need more get togethers like that to boost our team...
and some new players would be good... I will have to get cracking on that!
Me and my sis went for a lovely long walk today too which was nice... for some reason I'd decided to wear shorts... blinded a few passersby and a dog with my pale pale legs



Erm, yeah i went the wrong way...

Last night was fun, went to Ste's house with Wiggy and Lou, much fun and trivial pursuits were had.
It was fun to just laugh. I don't do enough of that. When I get tired I act like I'm drunk, I assume, having never been drunk in my life.
I've just been roped into having to be at YT this afternoon... I dont hate YT or anything, I just have things I really have to be doing... am off to the theatre shortly to sort out July and next June... ugh... I hate all this politics stuff, I just want to make plays!
I ate so much crap last night! Really... way too much... I just couldn't stop eating. Admittedly at one point I ate a banana just because it was funny...
Tell you what made me sad though is that the two quietest of the foursome only started really talking once they had had a bit to drink. I always think things like that are sad. I can't really explain what I mean, plus not many people agree with me so I dont want to start a debate... usually people say 'yeah I just need a drink to loosen up'... bollocks... OK.. I'm ranting now... you can loosen up because of the company you're with or because you're comfortable, NOT because of a foreign stimulant.. and if you can't then you need to work through that in your mind, not take an easy route out. I dunno, makes me sad that's all. Random rant over.
No wait... PLUS... people use it as an excuse... like 'oh I can't believe I did that, I was drunk'... i find that hilarious, using alcohol as an excuse for doing something that you probably wanted to do anyway but didn't have the guts... JUST DO IT OR DON'T!
Right
I'm done.
I dont know where that came from. I think I'm just ready for an argument. I'm also dreading YT in the sense that there's a booking going to be in the theatre at the same time that we weren't told about til last night. Wasn't going to be a problem as it was going to be a music rehearsal, but now the MD can't come so Wiggy will have to rethink his rehearsal.. whcih probably means we will have to get on the stage again... which also means I'll probably have to do something with some of the kids. Which, again, I dont mind, I just have other stuff I should be doing today.
EEP!
I've randted for ages... I need to get dressed and to the theatre.
CYA

Well... a very busy day full of work work work... my students were stressing about their hand in for my radio class, which is tomorrow, so of course I wound them up... muahaaa... no actually I helped a lot of them with their editing. I have really enjoyed that class, I really hope I get more work there next year... so far my emails have gone unanswered so keep your fingers crossed for me.
Just realised tonight I'd not put Half a Sixpence on my Acting CV... so did that... been non stop today, which I LOVE, just not been like that for a while... I hope it carrys on for tomorrow so I can get on with more of my accounts.
Well I'm going to go to bed me thinks...
Oh it looks like my June 2006 slot next year at the theatre will either be 'Bedroom Farce', Alan Aykbourn or 'Townswomens Guild.... Murder Mystery' - HILARIOUS! Am gonna leave it up to the committee to decide.
Night

Just made this for another page... but thought I'd put it on here as I think it's kind of cool.
Since last June when I got my hair cut, so nearly a year, these are all the hair colours and styles I've had!



and I still have another month left...

I'm full.. I just had some pasta... I realised, while talking to the texan last night, that I pretty much dont go a day without cheese... I'm a cheesaholic! I CAN GIVE IT UP!!! I CAN!!!!!!! Ahem.
I just LOVE cheese! I'm so glad I'm not a vegan.
I drove back from Salford today and the sun was shining and I almost convinced myself I was on holiday already basking in the American sun , drivingon the freeway, getting terribly burned... *sigh* thems the days.
How depressing though that even my stalker is now not interested in me... *sigh*
I can't wait to get back to the states... I've saved mullah and can relax for the whole time I'm there... assuming I can line up more work at Salford for when I get back then ALL IS WELL!
I'm really excited to visit three new states - Minneapolis, Texas and Oregon... I may also get to Indianapolis if I can time it right.
That means states I've been to now: NY, WI, IL, CA, Maryland (dont know initials)
Erm.. i think that's all... I thought there were more... damnit!
Next year... next year!

Ooooo
So my blog has become a hotbed of stalker type action...
Only joking...
Today has been a bit lazy... am trying to sort out my plays for the next year. Read 'Absurd Person Singular' by Aykbourn, and loved it, not sure the theatre could accomodate three different kitchen sets though.
Going to try and get through some more scripts tonight as I need to get some work for Salford done for Weds, my students are all coming to their final pieces now so I should probably meet them half way with the work ;)
I am off to the Trafford Centre soon me thinks... for no reason... just need to get out of the house... didnt' do much yesterday, dont have any money... but I love to look at pretty things, especially if they're sparkly!

Gah the last few days...
Feeling rather down about myself.. whether I should do or not is beside the point.. I just do.
Enjoyed Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy... dont remember much about the series, and haven't read the books which is probably why I liked it. Rather oddly forced in Love Interest though, I didn't really think it needed it.
CSz went OK last night, again leaving a foul taste in my mouth - i think it's being back at the theatre, just makes me feel down.
Anyhoo...
Off now
And reveal yourself mysterious stalker dude!

this is about the time I think I died in the match...

Well, it's been nearly a week since the show ended, and I really dont miss it... what I do miss are the people I'd get to hang out with every night, and not getting home til like 3am!
Last night was supposed to be a reunion of some of the cast... only Miles and I turned up! I think that says a lot for the show really. Zoe popped in after her rehearsal (she's in the next show and is a glutten for punishment), but Miles and I decided it'd be cheaper for us to run away to Tesco and buy cheap pizza. So that we did. We ate at Miles' house, while he got steadily more and more drunk, and then decided to set fire to his hand... ON PURPOSE! He's an odd boy.
Tonight I'm meeting him and we're watching Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy... I've heard mixed reviews so I'll let you know what I think later...
Am trying to get some stuff edited asap so I can get on with the Half a Sixpence video while it's still fresh in my mind!
Anyhoo - gonna get more editing done!

SHOW ENDS!

Yeah I kind of slacked off the last few nights... mainly cos I wasn't getting in until about 3-4am! I am knakkered... I slept most of today.
Had a really fun last night party which involved all the fun stuff you do at party's I suppose... people watching, eating, playing 'Lady and the Tramp' with breadsticks and people I've known since they were tiny! (yeah... in hindsight I feel rather paedo-y about the whole thing now....)
The day before the evening was nice too. Miles and I did the awards, tallyed them up, then Miles cooked couscous and made my kitchen smell delightful. He only set the smoke alarm off the one time ;)
He tried to chicken out when we were just about to go on and present them, but he got up the nerve, which was good, cos he's hilarious, he needs more confidence in himself. He did, however, take off the Tiarra I'd put on him.
I really miss my boobs!
I got used to being able to fill an A Cup.. now I feel all breastless.
Lol... I'm not fussed really.. but I suppose I was just enjoying filling out clothes a bit more.
Anyway... I should try and sleep so I get my sleeping patterns sorted.
Nighty night



Miles wins 'Looks Best In A Dress'



This should never have happened... ever... EVER!
