I think my mom is a little bit ridiculous about this whole achievement thing.
Yeah Schmerg, and just think you only turned 17 a little while ago right? So I'm assuming you've got another year of High School left. Junior year sucks what with all the standardized testing, but Senior year's gonna get even more stressful if your mom's as "hands-on" as I think she is. By the time February and March roll around you might be diagnosed with Senioritis and just want to relax a bit before graduation. But from the sound of it your mom's gonna make you MUSH ON!!! regardless. Sorry.
And Kels, if I could I'd give you a huge *hug* and let you crash on my couch!!! But I'm living with my grandparents again so I don't think this setting is ideal for you either. Good luck and I hope it all works out soon.
Remeber when snoods made a come back in the 80's?
HAHAHAHAHAHA is that what those are called?!
Wow, as much as its been raining in Chicago this spring, I could use a snood to control my frizzies.
Those things didn't make a comeback where I lived!
LOL! They did in L.A. I think Madonna probably had something to do with it. I did NOT work that look at all!! (although I tried)
Ok...I have a sick mind but I don't even want to tell you what BB's pic made me think of right away. It's probably just because I've been spending so much time with half-naked-hot-as-hell gay men. :)
We love sick minds, LL. And you are right. It looks like that.
Hahaha...so glad to find like-minded people. Haha :)
PS: Some of the production photos from my show are on my facebook in the Local Theatre Stuff 2 album or here:

If you're interested. :)
What's "Jeffrey" about L?
HA. I thought the same thing! I remember when some crazy girls in my ballet classes wore those...even at that young age they looked suspect to me.
eegads a snood AND a big hairbow in one?
(and yeah, I thought it looked like that too)
How did I not even notice when I posted it? I think the bow distracted me.
BB- Here's the plot synopsis from the press release:
Dominion Stage closes its 59th season with the endearing ?Jeffrey.? Written by Paul Rudnick, the play (recipient of the 1993 Obie Award, Outer Critic Circle Award and the John Glassner Award for Outstanding New American Play) centers on the title character, Jeffrey, an actor/waiter, who has sworn off sex after too many bouts with his partners about what is "safe" and what is not. In 1990?s gay New York, though, sex is not something you can avoid. Whether catering a ditzy socialite's "Hoe-down for AIDS" or cruising at a funeral; at the gym or in the back rooms of an anonymous sex club; at the annual Gay Pride Parade, or in the libidinous hands of a father-confessor, Jeffrey finds the pursuit of love and just plain old physical gratification to be the number-one preoccupation of his times-and the source of plenty of hilarity. Suddenly, just after he's reconciled himself to celibacy, Jeffrey's flamboyant friends introduce him to the man of his dreams, who also happens to be HIV-positive. What follows is an audacious and moving romantic comedy with a difference-one in which the quest for love and really fabulous clothes meet, and where unflagging humor prevails even when tragedy might be just around the corner.
Oooh that sounds good!!
It does sound good! The press video was hilarious.
That sounds good. I want to see the Hoe-Down for Aids scene!
I just watched the video and I agree. Hilarious. If I could make it down that way I totally would! Damn Oklahoma.
Speaking of which, tonight we're finishing up filming parts of rehearsal for the preview video so I'll make sure I post that sometime before Saturday! All I have to give so far is a link to the cast: http://ncp.art.officelive.com/cast.aspx
Jeffrey was made into a movie in 1995. It was really really good. Starring Steven Weber, Patrick Stewart, Christine Baranski, and Michael T. Weiss, who was on Days of Our Lives in the 80s as Dr. Mike Horton.
Rent it!
Maybe I'll rent it next week when my husband is in Arizona!
Im gonna rent Requiem for a Dream (I'm just in the mood). I'll look for Jeffrey, too.
