almost mortal…almost

So I’m not in rehearsal or prepping for a rehearsal, performing or crashing after a show for the first time in YEARS!!! How does it feel? Weird. Terrible. Boring. and just a tad peaceful. Things are happening and not-happening. I did Charmed Vessels for the holidays and it was awesome, so I did my Etsy site, which sucks. I would never buy something like this online…without feeling it and holding it. I was gonna take it down but i think having that stuff online helps. Right? I will get off my ass and take some samples to local stores and see if that helps…it’s not that I don’t believe in the spells I guess I just don’t believe in the average consumer to get it.. and that sux. Achilles is dead in the water. UGH. That sux too. Too much, WAY too much to go into now but suffice to say it isn’t happening any time soon. That bummed me out more than I can ever explain. My car died. RIP Lady Royale! Palm Spring bailed on History of Drag. I know, batting 1,000 right? BUT in a sliver of cool the new artistic director might be interested in next year. It’s not like I’ll be too old for the role :))) I have to start over. We shall see.

Paris is the best part of 2018! Booked flights, Paris airbnb! Excited. Costume is no where near done. Pieces are arriving. I might have over estimated my sewing talent! It should be fun, certain friends not getting along not withstanding…we shall see (AGAIN) I am sure fun will be had.

We Won!

Wow Maui Fringe was AWESOME! I cannot actually express in words how great the whole trip was! 2017 was so hard and the turn around to 218, being sick as a dog and then rehearsing (sorry Rebecca for sweating all over you) and then going to Maui was tough. I am counting Imbolc as my real New Years. Hence reorganizing my life. I have plans! It was so great being an actor again ( I say this a lot). Finding ways to do more! Shanna and I are planning on having a semi-private fight class. YAY! Charming Vessels to where to pitch The Third! I am in motion. Really setting out my monologue book! Also: I want to re-commit...

Saying goodbye to yourself

My Aunt Stella died. She was an amazing woman. I will miss her very much. It’s hard, when someone you love so much, someone you thought would always be there for you, the way she always had been, is no longer going to be here, to not be selfish. Me me me. I am sad. I am wrecked. I can’t stop crying. What she meant to me. Maybe that’s not such a bad thing. I guess, if someone helped make you who you are, maybe it should be impossible to speak about them without being self-referential.

Aunt Stella taught me kindness. She was kind to me when others weren’t. She never judged when it would have been easy to condemn. If life became unkind Stella would offer concern. A trait I have tried to copy, sometimes, well sometimes…

I love Halloween! (duh)

I made an awesome outfit for the black hat march in Thompkins Square! (above not it) So excited. Much is good right now! Maui Fringe accepted and sent promo? Check! Brighton applied? Check-ish! Dublin applied? Check! Palm Springs? Check! But first I have to get thru, I mean LOVE, Kageno and make some money for them! Then Perform "Sun in Her Belly" for Plant Queer! My poor friends are going to disown me! Video coming!!! I will be spending so much $$ in the next 4 months I cringe when I think about it! But it's all good right? I mean what's the point of making all this art if no one sees it? yay. ...

The Center of me

So at this class at Greenman we talked about "what's the center of your universe?" In this case it had to do with magick and spell-crafting, (ok let it go, it's cool if you think this stuff is nuts because it is, stay on subject), the instructor was basically saying it's hard to do a money spell when $$ isn't the center of your universe. Single-minded intent. If family or love is the center of your universe it's hard to make cash your most important intent. OK what does this have to do with art? Dude, what's at the center of my universe? Last night, in the above photo, I helped coordinate a poster painting party for anti-orange guy and...
