Now die, die, die, die, die!

Wow I just watched the AMND dvd... good times! Unfortunately it was from the Friday not the Monday (<-- by far the best performance, ne ces pas? can't spell french) but it was very much fun to revisit without being in a dark(ened), stifling booth whispering cues and freaking out. The high point was the workmen's play. Mindy left the tape on at the end and you could see the audience including Max H-J filing out and having spirited discussions (well, not Max) but unfortunately couldn't make out what they were saying except a couple parents ("Sooo proud of you!"). Farndale Ave. is apparently on the DVD as well, but I'm kind of alarmed at the prospect of seeing my mug - watching yourself is nervewracking. Just the thought of watching myself do that prologue makes me shudder! I hate myself! Not really, but I am not an ahhhhhhhhct-ress, so I have not yet learned to harness the powaaaaaah of my body and voice to its full advahntage, dahling, and do not listen or watch myself on a regular basis.

Also my mum has been listing a 2.25 million dollar house!! Co-listing, actually, with a prick - er, dick -called George P***** (can't spell the name unless he FINDS this) who is a rather arrogant creep (he still brags about the time Bill Clinton "touched" him in a bathroom. Apparently it was just a pat on the shoulder, but that's not how he introduces the story. Creep). Nonetheless, the house is pretty cool. I've only seen the virtual tour online, but I'm going to write a press release in case any papers are interested; unlikely, but possible. It's sort of a celebrity dig because Yanni (the new age musician) lived there for 10 years, with his then partner, the star of the show Dynasty, Linda Evans. Never heard of her. Anyway, there are three dishwashers in the kitchen and two of every other appliance, a $40,000 oven (well, two ovens side by side), an awesome indoor pool with huge lofty skylight type-thing meaning you can see the pool from the kitchen, a surround-sound theater with big projector and soundproof walls, a cozy panelled library (I liked that best), 180 degree views of the Sound, etc etc etc. How the other .00000001% live. I would have loved to go play around but apparently letting teenage family members loose on the property is not part of the realtor's privileges, which I think is most unfair, especially given said family member is an 18-year-old college senior, which means she MUST be mature and responsible. Still, I may yet find a way. Muahahaha... I wish the idea was more evil and worthy of such threatening laughter.

What I said about not being an ahhhhhctress? I probably never will be, but I will be taking acting in the fall. Yay! I'll have to start spreading some buzz around the watercooler. God, that Grunberg is some hott stuff. All I hear is people talking about this Grunberg! Overrated! Oh, I watched the first disc, first season of Scrubs and thought it got better as it went along. I REALLY liked the last episode, where Carla ditches Elliot in going to a bar, Turk gets his face plastered over posters cause he's black, and Dr. Cox pretends to hate JD but really thinks he's great. It was funny but also surprisingly touching, especially the JD/Dr. Cox thing. But I'm worried about getting the next disc because I have this premonition it'll get worse, and my mum will want to watch it because she, like me, really liked that one episode, but just like Greg, I always worry about whether the other person will like something when I watch it with them, why?! Am I doomed to be a girl with low self esteem? It doesn't matter because MY LAPTOP'S HERE! Bye.
