The Quelf Effect

Published on January 16, 2008

Got a new board game.  It’s called Quelf.  It’s the greatest “friends over for dinner let’s do something fun” board game ever.  You can throw out Taboo, Boondoggle, Flibberflabber, Jabberfly and all the other ones.  This game is hilarious.  The last time I played I ended up with a bra on my head, shoes around […]


What to do? What to do?

Published on October 27, 2007

So I tested at this law firm on Wednesday, passed the test and interviewed today.  The interview went well and as I’m leaving the building I get a call from Nickelodeon saying they’d like to meet with me about an upcoming project.  I set up a meeting with them for Monday.  As I’m on the […]


Things get better

Published on October 12, 2007

This has been a very interesting week.  As you will recall, I got canned last friday.  Couple that with my aborted acting class and I was kind of depressed.  Saturday morning I was in a pretty bad mood.  Here’s what’s happened since.
Saturday night we had Cimmet3 over for a muder mystery dinner. (Cimmet3 is my new […]


Sigh

Published on October 6, 2007

So, I sort of got fired from my job today.  It wasn’t much of a surprise as there have been hints at downsizing for a while.  And I’m just a lowly temp so out I go.  They are working on keeping me at a reduced schedule.  About 22 hours made up of 3 overnight shifts.  […]


Career update

Published on September 13, 2007

Been a while since I’ve posted an update on my acting career.  It’s going ok right now.  I’ve got a few things in the hopper.
Tomorrow I’m starting an acting class which I’m pretty excited about.  It’s going to be 5 hours on Mon and Fri nights.  1.5 hours of voice, 1.5 hours of body and […]


Visit to reproductions

Published on August 1, 2007

On my way home from Reproductions. It’s where every NY actor (except for the very cheap ones) gets their headshots reproduced. Man, I’ve been going to this place for 12 years. Very interesting how the technology has evolved. Years ago, you’d give them a blown up copy from your photographer, they’d […]


Getting close

Published on April 25, 2007

Been a little while since I’ve updated the blog here.  Lots of stuff to report.  I’m watching the Dodger game on MLB extra innings, thank you very much.  That’s the good, the bad is the Blue Crew is losing.  Perhaps by the time I finish writing this entry, they will have pulled it out.
Right ear […]


Back to work

Published on March 26, 2007

Its Monday and I’m back to work for the first time since my surgery.  I’m feeling okay.  A little worn out.  I ran for the bus this morning which in hindsight might not have been the best choice.  I’ve been really thirsty all day and pretty tired even though I got close to 8 hours […]


Under $10,000…a satellite dish, inside?…under the knife

Published on March 14, 2007

Lots of stuff to report on today from Ryanland.  The debt is now $7,038.  Wow!  Three more months.  Then we’re off to Napa, debt free.
The MLB-Directv deal went through, sort of.  Its an exclusive deal unless cable decides to put the nonexistent MLB channel on their basic tier, which they probably won’t.  They have until the […]


Happy New Year

Published on January 31, 2007

Allright, a little late.  I was going to paste in some pictures but I’m at work and all of a sudden they’ve blocked flickr so that’s going to have to wait.  Lots of stuff has happened since I last posted.  I’ll try to go in order.  We spent Christmas day with Willis and Gulay in […]
