On Wednesday I had my audition for Warner Brothers for a role of Mundungus Fletcher in the newest Harry Potter film, and this morning I heard from the casting director. I was told that they liked what he saw and they asked me to come in again today for a call-back, so that sounds hopeful. We'll see how that goes. Besides that, I have another ( Read more... )

They're really scraping the bottom of the barrel for actors these days.

Is that a joke or I know! Though I'd say I'm the bottom of the bottom of the barrel. But as long as the barrel is wine, I feel I'm good.

How've you been otherwise.

Besides the general stress of selling myself for a role? Actually, I'm alright.

Elisa and I are back together. I don't know if she mentioned this to you yet, or not.

No, she didn't.

I reckon you can feel free to kick me in the balls next time you see me. But not too hard? I need them.
When I'm with her, it feels right.

Popular belief says I get off on that sort of thing, but when it comes down to it I'll skip the ball-kicking and be a supportive friend.

Thank you. It's what I really needed to hear.

She's a mess, but so am I - we complement each other.

I'm a bit rusty on high school math, but don't two messes make a right?

Something like that. I have a fairly good feeling this one's going to work out.

How are you doing? You were away on a camping trip with your son, weren't you? Did that go well?

I hope it does for both your sakes.

As well as being in the woods could go, I guess. We made popsicle stick birdhouses and I got poison ivy. My sponsor reamed me out for not attending a meeting for almost 2 weeks.

I hope so, too. I don't know if my heart can take another breaking.

Did you get to eat all the popsicles first, before using the sticks?

You stayed sober during those two weeks, right? That's the main point. Did you call and let your sponsor know you wouldn't be attending for a while?

Nope. The teacher bought them that way.

[...] I've been sober for two months, Neil. Haven't touched the stuff not that I didn't want to. No, I didn't call him.

Damn teacher ate all the popsicles, then.

Congratulations. I knew you'd been clean for a while, but I wanted to clarify my point. Next time avoid the rant and give him a call to let him know.

Did the custody... stuff... ever get resolved?

Have you ever seen a red faced hippie jump around, flail his hands at you and scream that your "karma is so not centralized, Dave man."? Nothing quite like the satisfaction, actually.

The lawyer from Featherstone and Janson is putting up a fight, but after I started bringing signed AA sheets, things started to turn in my favor.

Dave man?

With the exception of 'Dave man', it sounds almost like something I would say, especially if I were stoned out of my skull. Tell him that he's 'harshing your mellow' and 'giving him bad vibes'. Maybe he'll shut up.

That's great. I haven't heard from Aileen since... New Years. But that isn't uncommon. I'm happy for you.
