The fruits of perseverance

FYI:Don't take someone's word for it when they tell you something you really want to see is sold out. Check it out yourself. Because supposedly CE's new play A Doll's House was sold out since March, except that, wait a second, they still have tickets. Of which I just bought one, hence I am laughing like a madwoman right now. The stupid website took

Brains really do suck sometimes. You should've seen me yesterday, suffering from the inevitable crazies that come with two 8 am exams in a row and then work. Even my coworkers were looking at me funny.

I think it comes down to the fact that there's characters I adore, so much, that to meet the actor who plays them is to have to for real acknowledge the fact that they aren't real. Of course CE is, all by himself, a wonderful seeming man (as is Jon Stewart, whom I adore and would want to meet and fawn over and give a kidney or two or my heart to, no questions asked) so I might want to talk to them but...I don't know. Actors. I can't think what I'd have to talk about aside from fannish stuff and those are conversations bound to take embarrassing turns. I've read Ibsen (Enemy of the People, I think it was?) and enjoyed it, but no, not that one. I'll...get to it. CE looks so adorably actory in that picture that was on ecclescult , though, I have to say. I wouldn't want to beg but...it would most likely be what came out. Like Liz with Oprah. I'd end up telling him that without Claude on the show I have such a hard time coming up with plots for the Plaude I write and...*laughs* It would be complicated.

I don't have a problem with that, oddly enough, and it's very good that I don't because I'm looking to get into the industry myself. Always have, really. I can't think of what else I'd be happy doing. So talking to actors would be obligatory. Though I confess that half the reason I want to talk to Milo is because he's single. He does. Specifically stage actory somehow I think I'd pay to see the look on his face if someone followed that particular line of inquiry.

Oh, that would be so cool. Something I know I could never manage to break in to/be satisfied doing, but still so cool. Although I'd give a lot to write for the Daily Show. Yes, for now. So get on that, missy! Oh CE and his actory-ness. So attractive to me. How come there are no actor!Claude AUs and how lame would it be to write one? Eeech. I would die. Of embarrassment. Especially if it prompted him to go looking. It's one thing to know he put in the subtext in 28 Days Later, another altogether for him to...yeah.

I had an epiphany during the last batch of essays. Rotten timing, but at least it cleared up what the hell I'm going to do after finishing. Except that I still don't know how I'm going to do it save for using my cousin's connections, but oh well. I know. I'm really, really hoping he'll head over here for the comic con, but since it's like two days before the one in San Diego, he'll likely go to that one. *sigh* I don't know. The Claude in my head always strikes me as a bit shy in crowds. Or maybe that's just his recent paranoia. *laughs* But wouldn't you just love to see that on screen? C'mon!

[visiblemarket]

Essays are good at epiphany causing. And you know, from the advice I always hear in regards to that, is you just write and write and write. Which you're pretty much already doing, so you're on a good track ;) It's also probably essential to get a decent enough back up job so you can feed your writing habit until you hit it big. Not that the starving artist thing doesn't have its own appeal. Oh, I'm sure you're bound to run into him some day. Once you write him the perfect script. Which god knows he needs, based on the few minutes of Pathology I keep trying to watch and get bored by ;) I think part of me is conflating Claude's personality with CE's, but I could see him being a theaterre actor, all serious and broody, or someone very into the independent film side of things. Or maybe even a director, which would actually be cooler, I think. Peter just has a young, fresh ingenue thing going for him that I'd love to see exploited explored. But I think the problem is that I should be writing RPF, which I don't like to do. See him finding out about the pr0nz on screen? Noooo. But him actually acting in them...mmmm.

I was just so depressed that essays was all my life had become. And then I saw that Grunny/Milo commentary and they were having such fun. There's no fun in essays. Ever. I'm looking to start off in anything, really, even if it's just translating subtitles. As long as it gives the chance to mooch with people. I hope so. And he does need proper screenplays, the poor guy. Told you it was crap. Just fastforward to the nekkid parts. A director, mm? Bossing eager, young Peter around, inviting him to private chats in his trailer. It'd make me happy to see that happen. The acting, not the pron finding. That'd be scary and awkward.

I've had similar epiphanies when I go home over a break and hang out with my friend who's a film major. Because I go over there and at best, all I've got to show for my semester is a paper or two, and he's got four or five short films. Yes, they are mostly crap, but still, it's something. Well, Alfred Hitchcock started off designing titles for silent films. So, yeah. I know, you did tell me. I appreciate your honesty. But why does the guy make it so hard for me to just enjoy seeing him nekkid? CE at least gives us decent movies to watch while waiting for the nekkidness. Grr. Director or screenwriter. With Peter being brought in because he's the new hot young thing in Hollywood and the movie needs a star. And Elle as a child star who never really got to have a childhood, Mohinder and Adam as the stars of the film (maybe Niki too, who is sweet and a good actress but has a drinking problem), and Sylar a celebrity stalker. Oh yes. Now you've got me thinking about this for real. I know you didn't really, but I'm going to blame you for it. The acting would make me die of fangirly joy. The only time I know of him actually playing all out gay was in "Casualty", which is apparently like the British ER, and that was one episode back in 1990. It's his first credit on IMDB, strangely enough, and I've only heard it from nina_ds but now...I must see it.
