Don't you just hate it when makeup decides to be a bitch and splatter all over the belongings in your purse?! I KNOW!
The past few days have been odd, cool, but odd.
On Monday I lazied around all day until I had to work the box office at The Second City (which was AWESOME!) Lots of important and soon to be important people were there. The show was amazing... I mean to have Nikki Payne open and Guilson Lubin close, WOW. In between you had Debra Di-Giovanni, Jason Rouse (so hot right now!) Marty, Ajay, Levi... all these great performers who just so happen to have graduated from the program I'm taking. Makes me really want to go back to school. The place was packed! It made me so proud to see that Humber was celebrating it's 5th year of Comedy teachings...yet sad to see that the one man who really gave it meaning wasn't amongst the crowd. Maybe he was vacationing, I don't know... one thing's for sure- it should have been his baby. It's so weird too how you go from a little piece of shit first year, to a lots-of-people-know-you-now second year. All you got to do is get out there and Jason Rouse will call you by your first name ;-). I'm so greatful that everyone in this "field" has been how they are to me. I have not yet encountered a bad apple. I'm sure there's some, I can see it coming (knock on wood), everything is all fine and dandy for me know, but next year is the real test.
I had the chance to meet some of next years' first years too which was fun. The majority of them remind me of "Howie", this guy who once JOKED that he wasn't coming back to school- they're the type of people who don't shut up, they're ON 24/7 and make you want to believe they're funny. ARg I can't stand people like that... if you're funny fine, you're funny... but let me find that out for myself thanks. Or else it just gets repetitive and annoying - that's not the reputation you want. From the workshop kids, I did meet this one individual who was quite attractive and from Edmonton (I'm the worst with names though). He was thinking about joining the program next year and asked me a bunch of worrysome questions. I answered them honnestly and we started having a very intellectual conversation (BONER!)... we'll meet again one day I'm sure. During the show, I sat beside this other kid who claims to be a perfume dealer in Ottawa. He apparently loved the smell of my perfume, which is odd because everyone else hates it... He made me kiss his hand when we parted, then proceeded to kiss mine. We connected and I'll be seeing their show tomorrow night.
Yesterday I spent 3 hours waiting to see a stupid family doctor to renew my prescription. God there are soooo many people in this city, it takes forever when it comes to waiting in lines. I, ofcourse, was impatient and told them to call me when they were ready. Ha! They called just in time when I had to leave for work though.
Working was the odd part. It was just so "yuk" to be back. The idea of pointing people to where the washroom is for a living seems pathetic to me. No wait, I have more responsibility that than- I show them to their tables too! I was hoping to see guy (A) at work but settled for guy (B) who was rather friendly upon my arrival. I'm not too sure if it's a lost cause between us two anymore... we always play with words and use the I'm-too-cool-for-you look whenever we're within a few meters of each other. But I would of much rather seen guy (A) whom I happily spoke to yesterday as well. He said the reason behind his message was because he was "thinking of me" HA! Booyah, I'm on his mind.
The weird part was I woke up around 4 am to this CRAZY thunder storm. I made my way to the washroom and looked over at the phone where I had yet another message. I never heard the phone ring. Sure enough, it was guy (A) in a drunken-state calling me John and asking me to "fucken party"... at 4 am? I was a little scared, and thinking about it now, it's making me want to reconsider the plans we have together tonight. And how can you not know my answering machine message? Even if you're drunk as hell, it's the most annoying thing in the world.
It's kind of funny though. I'm going to laugh at him for it.
Today is another lazy day, but hey... I woke up at 11! I'm currently clean and listening to "the 80s lunch" on chum fm. It's weird, when I was 16 I fucking hated those things because I could never listen to "good" music during lunch. But now, I'm loving it! Madonna was the queen of the 80s. She just so happens to be coming to T.O next week. CRAZY.
Today's goal : put up some curtains.
greetings!
sightings!
