Jobsite Rocks Fundraiser
Coming up in just a few weeks – Jobsite’s annual fundraiser/season wrap party at New World Brewery. This year’s fundraiser is more important than ever due to the untimely closing of Hurlyburly. We suffered a significant financial setback, a first for our company. If you want to help make sure Jobsite can make it to our 10th birthday, PLEASE consider attending the fundraiser on Sept. 15. You may also donate directly via PayPal on JobsiteTheater.org or mail a check to P.O. Box 7975, Tampa, FL, 33673.
We need your help!
Heh
Ok…my last post REALLY was supposed to have a lot more content than “I don’t get comments,” and it wasn’t intended to be a cry for attention. I just didn’t have time to post more.
But thanks anyway. 🙂
So, umm. Yeah. Hi everyone. I’m still here. Kinda. I guess. I post so infrequently these days that I’m starting to wonder if a lot of folks out there in LJ land have filtered me off their reading lists. I mean, when I do make one of my rare two line posts I hardly even get comments anymore. Le sigh. Of course, I could always just fish for comments by making some kind of reference to being horny or something.
We all know that long content is boring and sex gets comments.
But my sister bitches at me when I don’t post for long periods of time, and I think my Mom gets annoyed with me for the same reason. Which…is really kind of odd and disturbing in a way, and pretty much guarantees that my days of public posts about getting my freak on are done.
The new web site…
Ok…I got that far at around 9:15 AM this morning. It is now 11:40, and I’ve been busy ever since. I figured I’d have some time to write between tasks today, but that is not proving to be the case so I’m finishing this now.
One week until we leave for Dragon*Con. I really, really need this.
Symmetry/Full Circle Redux
I wrote a few months ago about running into Kerry Glamsch during a performance of Woman In Mind.
Yesterday I got news that I’ve been cast as Harold in Gorey Stories, but the “my acting career seems to be coming full circle” doesn’t end there. What I wasn’t aware of until Saturday was that one of the pieces in Gorey Stories is a piece called Charlotte Sophia. Charlotte Sophia is one of the bits that Kerry adapted for our ninth grade production. In that piece I played the part of the drunk who gets “the horrors.”
In Gorey Stories Harold is the narrator of that story. That is until about half way through. At that point he switches up and becomes…
The drunk who gets “the horrors.”
Summary of my day…
Woke up around 10:30 AM. Kind of shuffled out to my computer, screwed around for a bit while I made some coffee, then I started working on our new web site. I stopped around 2:15, did some exercise and took a shower, then went over to Tampa for a Gorey Stories callback. Got home around 6:30, grabbed a quick bite, and started coding again.
It’s now 1:00 AM. I have been beating my head against the desk for the last 2 hours because something that is working perfectly in Firefox isn’t working in Internet Explorer at all.
Why yes, you are correct in noting that it’s a Saturday.
Have I mentioned that I’m salaried?
Finished now.
*pokes his head above the waves*
This is what has been making me crazy-go-nuts recently. And will continue to do so for the next two weeks.
Doom 3 Discs Needed
Hey gang – any of you local folks have a copy of Doom 3 for the PC? My son bought it the other day, but unfortunately when he was brining it over here from his Mother’s house he dropped it in the front of the house and gouged the hell out of two of the discs. Neither one of them work now, and he cannot install the game. The cost of getting a repair kit is more than the cost of the discs themselves, and the toothpaste repair method didn’t work.
I don’t need a CD Key – he really does have his own legitimate copy. I just need to borrow the discs so I can make a backup copy for him.
Thanks.
Edit – The torrent I had running yesterday worked fine with his key. Thanks anyway!
