I slept a bit more, and now I'm trying to decide whether to go into the office today. I still hurt, but there is stuff I need to do. It's just a block and a half to walk there, but I know it'll hurt. I'm not sure that resting will do much, though -- I pretty much stayed in bed all weekend, and only felt marginally better.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Ebert went on to marry another big black woman.
Apparently he tweet-slapped John Mayer on the subject too.
I think I'm falling in love with Roger Ebert.

If you'd been running around you'd feel at the very least marginally worse.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Very impressed that Nora studied with Linklater.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Oooh. You got to study with Linklater? Sweet.
Seriously sweet. I use her vocal ladder for my personal warm-ups and have placed my voice for different characters in different places using that technique. Also, I've taught it to high school students in a voice workshop. That is so cool that you got to study with her.

Very impressed that Nora studied with Linklater.
Ooh, I should lead off with that more often! She was an amazingly funny, no-nonsense, abrupt, intense woman and an excellent teacher. The second semester I had with her the class did a collaborative acting project based on the work of Carol Gilligan. Really great. I still have that script. I remember I read from the first Anastasia Krupnik book.
Linklater's explanation of the integration of movement-voice- acting made so much sense to me. It really made the entire process so organic.
Man, I miss acting.

Ebert's one is better than my ex's, of course G. didn't really have a voice to reconstruct or Ebert's$$$. Still, go, Ebert!

Shit's all sorts of different now.
I should really stop letting it get to me, but if ONE MORE PERSON on FB defriends me for NO EFFING REASON, I am going to go ape-shit in my status line.
It's really dumb, and the people who do it suck a big one, but jeebus christmas it gets tiresome.

Also, she taught freshman acting, which was great. We were the first class that came up through her acting program/progression so we were sort of the guinea pigs.
She wanted to be sure that we all were indoctrinated with the basic building blocks of her technique.

Me, too. I love her work and am very jealous you got to study with her.
