Ummmmm
So ya, I got hired to play the scarecrow in a $100,000 production of "The Wizard of Oz". It will be in this huge theater: http://www.canyons.edu/info/news/Resources/vec_stage_1.jpg
I know I should be happy, honored, thrilled, etc....but, I went to the read through last night, and I hated my performance. I'm going to have to work hard on this role I guess. Anyway, I just finished producing Julie Brown's ("Earth Girls Are Easy") latest single, "I Want To Be Gay". She is the MC at this years gay pride parade in Hollywood on June 11th. She will be performing the song live, should be fun. She also asked me to do a new version of one of her songs that was a hit in the 80's called, "The Homecoming Queen's Gotta Gun" which I did initially, but wanted to leave the project when I realized the song was pretty graphic, and makes a joke out of school shootings. Anyone who knows me, knows that this subject is a very personal one for me. Anyway, contractually the only option I had was to remove my name. They are still going to use my track I guess. I've also just been hired to score a film called "High Adventure!", more on that later.
I'm giving my brother my Explorer, but I am really worried about it. He and I had a long talk about him getting his life back together, and I have seen alot of evidence that he has learned his lesson after not having it for 7 months. But, I can't shake that feeling that underneath, he feels he is OWED these things. I can't prove that he feels that way, but my concern is that if he does feel this way, then he's learned nothing. I took the car away from him because within 6 months of getting his drivers license, he got 3 tickets!! Obviously, there's a problem. I am hoping and beliving that he will use the car to get his life back on track. Thankfully, he is still in school and will be graduating at the end of the summer. I will have a HUGE party then! I guess my fear about the car is....am I enabling him to end up hurting himself or someone else on the road? Or am I just giving him a 'last chance' to prove himself, and helping him get his life together?
Still no baby. :( We are doing all kinds of crap this month too. She's doing hormone injections, all this stuff. Why is it so hard to have a baby when you REALLY want one?
