Soooo....

Decisions Decesions!

I made an observation yesterday. It does not make any sense whatsoever but it is cheaper to fly in to Orange County from Louisville, KY than it is to fly in from Atlanta! Well one of my best friends lives in Lousiville and is as big a Disney fan as I am. So yesterday we are having a confab and he said he'd like to tag along! I'm cool with that cause it is always cool to have a traveling companion...especially for one who faces some unique challenges like I do. What I would do is when I go...I'd hop a bus for peanuts to Lousiville and travel with him and do the same back to Atlanta when the trip ends. Very simple.

Well the question is when to go. We want to plan this thing now so that don't run into a problem if say the prices skyrocket for airfare because of rising fuel costs..which I have a feeling will happen sooner than later.

There are two times circled on the calandar. Around my Birthday or Early December. Delaying a trip until Deceber allows me to have more time to save up money for extras, we get to see the Christmas decorations and all those festivities. And I'll have more time to get myself in better shape.

There's only one pro to keep the trip to September around my Birthday and it would take a biggie to even keep this one an option. I'm not a selfish person. However when it comes to this trip I guess I am. I want to spend my Birthday at Disneyland. I want to celebrate geting to my 26th year of beating the long odds that were set for me at the coolest and most magical place on earth and be there with my friends (y'all).

I think I know what the consensus will be from any advice I do get. And I do realize that it might be better in early December anyway. I guess I could always consider it an Unbirthday trip, right?

Unless you are on salary.

I work an average of 50+ hours per week.

Well, I'm taking the attitude that two birds in the hand are worth one in the bush.

Instead of hanging on hoping to hear about Javert, I'm taking two roles with a new company doing "Pippin" and "Annie Warbucks" in repertory. I'll be playing Charlemange (Charles) in "Pippin" and Daddy Warbucks himself.

Yes, sometime in June I'll be shaving my head! We'll be doing thirty performances (fifteen each show) in thirty days, July 10 - August 10. The zoo's going to be thrilled with me!

For the time being I'm Dr. Livesey in "The Ghosts of Treasure Island" with Oregon Children's Theatre, and "Who Stole My Dead Husband" is still going strong (although we had to cancel our Skamania weekend do to a lack of marketing on their part!)

My daughter turned 21 this week. For her birthday, she's coming to the show tomorrow night and the cast and I are buying her drinks.

During my set of Sinatra songs in "Who Stole My Dead Husband", there are a lot of things going on around the room. The audience is dancing, Grandma is molesting men, dessert is being served, etc. The audience's attention is anywhere but on me. Very rarely I'll sing to or even dance with an audience member.

A month or so ago I notice a very attractive woman watcing me as I sang. For some reason I was brave that evening and danced with her while singing "The Way You Look Tonight." Afterward I took her back to her seat and thanked her for the dance.

A week or so later, there was a message on my MySpace page. She had looked me up. Long story short... after a week of back and forth, I asked her out. This is me - I'd never done anything like this before.

We've been out twice now. She's terrific, and she actually seems interested in seeing me again. I don't know why, but I'm willing to go along until she comes to her senses.

My education continues.

Yes. I do. I'm weird. I don't like fish in a tank. I don't like Koi in a Koi pond (Tramspotters killer koi freak me out). But fish in the ocean are fine.
