the envolope please..... [May. 10th, 2007|05:14 pm]
[music |the trailer for Across the Universe]

I went job searching again today....

And the winner is......


Red Robin!!.....for some reason.

I went to BJ's for my interview and the manager wasn't there, so I decided to just try Red Robin, on a whim. And I got an interview on the spot, the lady loved me and wants me to come back in tomorrow or the next day to walk around with a server and get a feel of what it's like. Basically training me....already.

Hey, I'll take it. Any serving job is better than staying a host at Outback.

.....WHOOOOO!!!!!

[music |Hairspray]

Howdy,


So I've been looking for a new job. Outback just ain't cutting it anymore. I don't seem to be becoming a server anytime soon, so I'm gonna see if i can become one somewhere else. I applied at a couple of different places and I got an interview at BJ's.

But here's the thing, this is where it gets wierd. While I was filling out an application for BJ's, this woman came up to me and offered me a job....at LensCrafters. .....as confused as you are reading this, I assure you I was even more so hearing it. She was really nice. She said that she would love for me to apply at LensCrafters in the mall and theres good money and benifits and their flexable with hours. I made sure she knew that I'm a host at Outback, I know nothing about glasses nor lens'. But she gave me her card anyway.

So if my interview doesn't go well on tuesday, I'm gonna swing by LensCrafters. I mean, why not? What have I got to lose?

I almost want to take the job so I can tell me stupid manager that I'm quitting for LensCrafters and see her face.

last call! [Apr. 23rd, 2007|12:13 pm]
Howdy,

Okay, this is the last time I'll plug my show, I'm sorry thats all I talk about. hehe.

It is literally 3 days away. We are very ready and the show is going to be amazing. It is the best show I've ever been a part of. And I really want to share with EVERYBODY!!

As far as I know, these are the dates, and the people that I know are going on those dates.

Thursday at 7:30. Some friends from work are going.

Friday at 8:00. ....I dont really know who's going that night.

Saturday at 2:00. I think Luke said he wanted to go then.

Saturday at 8:00. This is the big night. My entire family is going, Eric, Mikee, Suzanne, Courtney, I think are going too. Plus, everyone else's family. So get there early, to ensure your seats.

Sunday at 2:00. Another one that I'm not sure who's going.


Tickets are 5 dollars if you have a student ID. It used to be an RCC student ID, but it's flexible sometimes. So I think any ID might work. If you're going with Eric and you dont have an ID, let me know, cuz I have two extra 5 dollar tickets.

Yea, that's it. I apoligize for how much I have talked about this play, but after this weekend it's over. Thank you to anyone who comes. I really hope you enjoy the show.

LOVE!!!

no longer as uptight... [Apr. 14th, 2007|01:42 pm]
[mood | mellow]
[music |water running]

Howdy,

Okay, this entry is dedicated to drinking and this new leaf I've turned about it.

You see, I had my first experience with getting drunk less than a week ago. It was my friend's Martini Monday and Eric and I decided to have a few. After like 4 and half pretty hard drinks, I was about drunk. It was very new to me. I became slightly more talkitive, my balance was completely off, and it made me alittle sick. I now know what it's like to be drunk. So I can safely say it's not for me. I understand why people do it though.

The reason I'm saying this is because about 2 years ago, I was very against drinking. I didn't want to surround myself with it because it seemed wrong and dumb. But lately, I've had more friends that drink and it's become more normal. I guess I'm just growing up or something.

And if anyone asks, I did it for research. In my play, I get drunk and my Dad told me I should find out what it's like so I can get a better feel for it on stage. Advice from good ol' pop.

I'm playing this game called Grandia 3. Eric bought it for me a while ago, and I got pretty far, but then I lost my memory card with the data on it. I really didn't feel like starting over, so I just kinda put it away. But now I'm playing it again, and it's just as pretty and fun as it was the first time.

I am playing for one single purpose though.

The shadow box!!!! mark you calenders! [Mar. 23rd, 2007|01:07 pm]
Howdy,

So, I've been rehersing for my show for about a month now. Which can only mean that my show is a month away. I'm giving a heads up now, just in case I forget to later. Here are the dates and times and cost of the show.



April 26th, Thursay night: 7:30pm

April 27th, Friday night: 8:00pm

April 28th, Saturday afternoon: 2:00pm

April 28th, Staurday night: 8:00pm

April 29th, Sunday afternoon: 2:00pm

As far as I know, the cost is still the same as the rest of the shows I've done. Which is; if you are any kind of a student, it's 5 dollars. And 10 dollars otherwise. If it's any different, I'll let you know.

As for the location, it is taking place at the riverside campus of RCC. Inside of the Landis Theatre. It's the biggest one in the middle of campus.

Because of how the stage and the audience is set up, seats are somewhat limited. So it would be in your best interest to get there alittle early, just to make sure you get a seat. (and if it's any help, I pretty much do all my scenes on the audience side right of the stage. So if you want a closer look at ME! ....sit to right. hehe)

So yea. Hope to see everyone there. It'll infinately better than Bad Habits. Teeehee!!!

The Shadow Box + The Prince Of Tennis= Happy Eric! [Feb. 17th, 2007|10:37 pm]
[mood | bouncy]

Howdy!!

So last thursday, I had my audition for this show called The Shadow Box. It's a depressingly amazing show about families dealing with death. Right away, from the start of the audition, I felt out of place. Which is weird because there was alot of people I recognized but also alot of people I didn't. There was alot of older people there auditioning and it was kind of intimidating. I did my original monolouge and kinda blew it but that's okay. Then we did some cold readings, and I think that went okay. I felt pretty good. Then David(the director) did his first round of cuts. ...there went all of my friends from the last show. I was one of the only people from Bad Habits that got a call back. And all the older people were still there.

For once, David is going to be able to do an age appropriate show. The ages will be right. It won't look like kids playing dress up anymore. Luckily for me, the part I was auditioning for was my age. Thank god.

The second cold reading is alot harder. It's Mark's(the character I want) break down monolouge. This is where he shows his true colors. It's hard to just bring up those emotions but I did my best.

The audition is over and I don't quite feel as confident as I'd like to feel. I felt down.

Two days go by without hearing anything about getting the part. Right before I head to work, David calls and tells me it's mine. I got the part!!!!!!!

I'm still beaming.

And just a minute ago, I turned on Cartoon Network and they were playing The Prince Of Tennis. That made me happy because I've always wanted to see an episode. It's awful and wonderful.

Kay thanks for reading!! Stay tuned for updates about the show. It'll be at the end of april.

TEEHEE!!!!!!

Church Day [Feb. 2nd, 2007|09:43 pm]
:The following is a monolouge I wrote. It's kinda generic, but I'm gonna use it for my next audition. I'd love some feed back on it:

Church Day
(done in a Southern accent)

My name is Chet. C-H-E-T...Chet. For as long as I can remember, my family has always gone to chruch. It'd be me, my little brother, my momma and my daddy. Now, we didn't just go to church for the morning like most families. It was a whole day event. We'd go to church in the morning for a couple hours. After that, we'd usually go to someone's house FROM church for like a brunch lunch thing where everyone would sit around and talk about the service and God. And then, when we got home, Daddy would quiz us at dinner about what we learned that day and the bible. This was every sunday. I began to call it church day, because that's all we did that day. Every sunday, Church Day. Now, I believed everything I was taught. But there was always one thing in the bible that I didn't quite understand, one phrase that just didn't sit right. It's in the Romans book, like verse twenty-something. It says A Man Shall Not Lie With Another Man. Now, when I was younger, that didn't make sense to me. Why can't a boy lie in bed with another boy, I mean if the bed's big enough? When I got older and I learned that it meant to be intimate with another man, I still didn't see what the big deal was. If guy likes another guy, whose buisness is it but they're own? When I expressed this opinion to my parents, they looked at me like I was disguisting. So I thought it best not to talk about that again. That is, untill a couple of years later.
I came out to my parents when I was 17 years old. When I realized I was gay, I couldn't keep it from them. I tried, but I can't keep secrets from my parents. I told them on a Thursday. But it might as well have been on Sunday, it might as well have been on Church Day, the way I disgraced them. ...I thought for sure my daddy was gonna hit me...but he didn't...Momma did. She hit me. And when I say she hit me, I don't mean she slapped me. No, she punched me in the face with her wedding ring hand. That's the last memory I have of my family, because the kicked me out. I'm 20 now. I live by myself in this little studio apartment. I work at Carl's Jr. I barely make enough to survive. I don't have any friends or family. No lover. I'm to scared to talk to anybody. I'm miserable. I know now why a man is not supposed to lie with another man. But I don't think the actual act of lying with another man is the bad thing. It's telling people about it. Because you make everyone unhappy. And making people feel that sadness, that anger...that's the sin.

solution to one of my problems [Jan. 28th, 2007|11:46 am]
[mood | giddy]

Howdy,

So, I have created a solution to one of my issues (not the play one, I'll be figuring that one when it comes to pass). For those who have been reading my updates, you'll know that I have been feeling isolated from my old friends. You see, when ever I have any free time, I use it to hang out with Eric and his friends. Which is totally fine. I love Courtney, Luke, Mikezanne, Kristin and everybody. But I am kinda missing my old friends.

SO! To solve this, I'm doing what I did the last time I felt like this. I'm haveing a get together. You see, about 6 months ago I was going through this exact thing. I felt I was drifting away from my friends, so I had as many people as I could come to starbucks and just hang out. About 25-30 people showed up and I felt exactly what I needed....love. It was amazing. Well, it's about that time again. I haven't seen my friends in a while, so I have invited the people that I miss to my house for a relaxing get together. The one big difference to this one is; I'm inviting Eric's friends as well. I have gotten very close with them over the last few months AND I'm curious how they will get along with my friends. Good times!

So yea, this is for Courtney, Luke, Mikezanne, Kristin and whomever of Eric's friends who will read this. (I'm pretty sure I've already told you all except Kristin....so Kristin! Come to my party with everyone!!!!!!111!!1!!!) Everyone is invited to house Thursday, February 1st at 7 o' clock. It's not going to be a big, mind blowing event or anything, I just wanna see everyone. If Mikezanne come, they are going to bring their Wii. Teehee!!

So yea, I look forward to seeing you all. Thanks for reading. ....bya!!!

my pickle [Jan. 19th, 2007|12:21 pm]
Howdy,

So, next month I have a pickle that I'm going to have to deal with. So after reading this, I would be honored if you could give me your advice.

I've already pretty much given up on school(long story), so that's not the problem. I really want to do the next play for the RCC theatre. It's called The Shadow Box and it's an amazing show. And it's drama. I miss doing drama. I mean, comedy is fun and all but drama is where my heart is. Here's the problem: the rehersal is much more than I'm used to. It'll be like 4 to 5 times a week and the show is 6 weeks after auditions. So that would mean I'm basically screwed on work for that period of time. Being that Outback is a dinner place. I would have to request ALOT of days off. And the thing is, with a car payment AND trying to move out, that would hinder it.

So I'm stuck with that problem. Either Not do a show and continue to save money to get the hell out of my house. Or do a great show with a great director and increase my experience in acting and just be short on money for a month and a half. ...I just don't know.

Mikezanne wedding [Jan. 14th, 2007|04:18 pm]
Howdy,

So Mikezanne had their wedding yesterday, and even though I couldn't be further from family to them, I cried like a baby. The second Eric and the groomsmen took their place at the front of the chapel, I lost it. I mean, I crying out loud obnoxiously, but tears were coming down my face. I think I embarassed Luke, who sitting right next to me. Hehe.

But yea, it was amazing. And afterwards at the reception, I was asked to MC, and I only made an ass out of myself alittle. The food was great. The people were great, all the toasts were really nice. (Especially Courtney's)

And let me tell you, seeing Eric in a Tux was worth the whole thing. I've never seen him so dressed up and it literally took my breath away. If I get the chance, I will post a picture.

.....um...yea. That's about it. Teehee!

year in review....(cuz everyone's gotta do it) [Jan. 1st, 2007|01:19 pm]
[Current Location |Eric's room]
[music |Dreamgirls!]

Howdy,

So it's been months since my last update, so choke on this HUGE update about my year!

....ummm.

Okay, since I can barely remember 3 days ago. I'm just going to go over the biggest things I an think of.

Starting with Eric and I's one year aniversary/engagement at Mission Inn in May. An amazing night. Everything went right that night.

Skip ahead a few months later, I fuck it up by cheating on him. I can't even begin to explain myself with that. I was just the dumbest person ever. It took a month or two of praying and hope just to make it through. But we stayed together and I have never been happier.

I go to the Anime Convention with Eric and his friends. It was fun. I found myself getting alot closer with his friends.

I got a new car. A gorgous 2001 Honda Civic. ...and no I haven't named it. I refuse to. I'd rather not personify something I get into every day. That'd be really wierd.

Eric and I get closer to our friends Russell and Marshall and they end up taking us to Disney land for my birthday. They paid for everything! It was probablly one of the best times we've ever had. Even though it was gay days there, we still had a blast. Eric got hit on, our friends got really drunk, good times were shared by all.

My dog Lucky died. A very sad day. But he's in a much better place. We've been making sure my other dog Honey knows we love her and have been keeping her inside alot lately. She's actually gotten kinda spoiled. hehe.

Eric and I do the play Bad Habits and it goes very well. Everyone who saw it said that it was very funny and were very impressed with both of us. Especially Eric, whom has never acted before. I was so freaking proud of him.

Eric and I start to get alittle closer with Mikee and Suzanne. We've hung out with them alot lately and it's been so fun. It's just nice to hang out with another happy couple. Teehee!

I find myself drifting further and further away from my friends. Not on purpose, but it does seem to be happening. Any free time I have, I spend it either at home or with Eric. Which is, by no stretch of the imagination bad. I just kinda miss my friends.

Christmas. Great. I got nice things, I gave nice things. I got Wicked Tickets for Eric and I. We see it in April.

Soooo, to sum up this year: Really really good with one really really bad fuck up. I am feeling the comfort of Eric again. We haven't fought in I don't know how long, and things couldn't be better. My year was Eric. In one way or another, it was focused around him. And I'm looking forward to this year being the same way.

Resolutions: Eat alittle better. Not as much fast food.
Save enough money to move out with Eric
Make some more time for my friends. I refuse to lose them.




thank you everyone! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Lucky bucky ducky... [Nov. 13th, 2006|07:14 pm]
Howdy,

This entry is dedicated to the memory of my late dog, Lucky.

I was 5 when we found him at a gas station in an abandoned car. He was just sitting there, couldn't have been more than 3 months old. We couldn't just leave him, so we took him home and gave him the name Lucky.

For the first year we had him, he would shake anytime anyone would come near him, proving that who ever had him before us were terrible people. But that went away and he grew to love us as we did him.

At the time we got him, we were moving alot. I'd say he lived in about 3 or 4 different backyards before we settled here on Redbark. That was 8 years ago. He just turning 7.

Right after we moved here, our cat ran away. We went to all the pounds to him her with no luck. The last place we went to, she wasn't there, but we did find a beautiful Collie/Golden Retriever mix who was just a couple of months old. She won Mom over and we had to take her home. We called her Honey because that is the color of her fur.

Lucky had a friend that would soon become his sister(You know, except for thr occasional humping). They got along wonderfully. They were always together, if Lucky found a way to get our of the backyard, Honey would force her way too.

After a while, Lucky went deaf. He was still the same ol' dog, he just couldn't hear anymore. He would sleep in his favorite area right next to the air conditioner unit and I would have to poke him to wake him, cuz he couldn't hear my calls.

Finally, two months ago, he begame to slow down even more. His age was starting to show worse and worse. We knew it was only a matter of time. Somehow, I knew I would be the one to find him. I always check up on him.

So yea, that's what happened. I was checking up on him right before work and there he was, in his favorite spot. But this time when I poked him...he didn't move. It was so heart breaking. My first thought was "Where's Honey?!". She had been acting funny all day and that was why.

This happened 2 days ago. I've been okay. I found a picture I took of Lucky and put it up on my wall. We've been letting Honey stay inside for most of the day so we can keep her company. She's just been acting very depressed. I don't blame her though. All she's known is him. All we can do it just love her as much as possible so she knows she's not alone.

I miss you Lucky.

play's less than a month away! [Nov. 10th, 2006|10:54 pm]
[mood | excited]
[music |Kelly, Shoes.]

Howdy,

It's been awhile since my last update, (sorry Coutney), so here we go:

Halloween pretty much came and went. Eric had alittle get together at his house to watch Hocus Pocus(sigh), and that was pretty fun. I find myself getting closer and closer with Eric's friends. Even Nadia, who I believed didn't like me when we first met. It's nice.

Luke had his birthday less than a week ago. Me, Eric, Suzanne, Him and Kristen when to this hole in the wall Sushi place next door to Le Sex Shop in riverside. I have never had Sushi before and I was willing to try anything. It was all you can it, and that's all I had to hear to be happy. Luke ordered ALL kinds of different ...Sushi's. I tried one of everything and I'd have to say that my favorite kind was Eel. I liked everything. The only thing that was hard to stomach was the texture of the food, but if you can get past that, it's really good.

Last night, Eric and had dinner with my best friend for a change. You see, lately, I've been feeling kinda distanced from my friends. I feel like I've been focusing all my energy into Eric and his friends, which has been great. But I dont wanna give up my friends, so I've decided to make more of an effort to see them. Anyway, so Kevin called me last night cuz he was bored and hungry. So we went with him to this mexican place inside of the Mission Inn. It was so much fun. I forget how great my friends are. Especially Kev. I love that little guy.
After dinner, we went to meet his new guy that his dating, Erik. hehe, I love that there's even more Eric/k's in his life now.

All in all, things are going well for me. The play is going well. It's at the end of the month and I'm excited! Eric and I are doing quite well. .....soooo.....yea. Bye bye!!

Yup, I am now 20! No longer a teenager am I. My fabulous birthday weekend has ended, but I am not sad. I had the time of my life. Which I will now discuss in GREAT detail!

I will start with Saturday. The day before my birthday.

At home...nothing special happened. The house was still dealing with my older brother's latest fuck up to really give me any attention. They gave me my present, which was an iPod shuffle. I'm listening to it now and it's not as bad as I thought it would be, but I didn't really want one. I can steal Eric's iPod anytime I want. I wanted video games or clothes, I'm a very simple boy, and I didn't get either. My rich lesbian aunt got me a dock thing so I can listen to my iPod in my car, but it doesn't even work, so I'm taking it back to get the money. And the other side of my family got me sweaters that will get lost in my closet, never to be seen again. In short, the presents I got from my family were somewhat of a bust.

I went to Eric's house as soon as I could so we could start my wonderful weekend. I was kind of in a sore mood because of home, but I was trying not to let it affect me. But then when we got to Downtown disney, the friends we were meeting there, said that they weren't going to meet us for a while. They were going to go on a ride first. Again, feeling kinda un-loved. Whatever.

Finally, we meet them and things begin to look up. Marshall and Russell have a great way to make me feel loved. Eric does all the time, I just wanted love from my friends too. And I got it. Because when we got sat at the Rainforest Cafe, the rest of the people I invited showed up. There was 8 of us. Me, Eric, Marshall, Russell, Anita, Kim, Kevin Mann, and Noah. What an amazing group. We all got along so great, it was exactly what I wanted. And to make things even better, this weird lady with a camera who worked there came and threw stuffed animals at us and took our picture. And then Marshall bought it for me. It's perfect. TEEHEE!

After dinner, Russ and Marsh left to go to this party thing, I would see them all day the next day, so it was okay. So the six of us just explored Downtown Disney and had a blast. Then, it got late so we said our goodbyes and Eric and I went back to our hotel room, which was beautiful, watched SNL(I miss Tina Fey), and feel asleep.

Sunday!!!

We woke up, took our showers, read alittle of Gideons Bible( you know, for irony's sake) and left for the park.

We had breakfast in this cute little cafe and then met my brother's friend who was getting Eric and I in for free. Jeri. She was really cool. After she got us in, she went to work and the 4 of us went to meet Russell's little brother and his girlfriend. Confused?

I was alittle weirded out that we were spended my birthday with people I never met before, but after I got to know them, it was fine. They were sooooo cool.

The shirts Eric and I made were a hit. We had grapics on our shirts, Eric had a plug and I had an outlet, ba dum tish! People approached us and laughed at them and talked to us about them, we even got our picture take a few times. It was great!

We went on some rides and then hit the bar later in the evening, the older friends of ours needed their drinkies. That's where Eric got hit on by a moderatly good looking, incredibly drunk guy. He was so adorably embarassed. He didn't know what to say or how to act, I was laughing so hard. I wish I could watch it all over again.

After our friends got alittle slogged, went to dinner at this Jazz place and it was awsome.

All in all, it was one of the best weekends I've ever had. I felt incredibly loved, and that's what's most important to me on my birthday.

Thank you, Eric, for making me feel all the love in the world. I love you so much.

OH!!!! And Eric bought me a laptop for my birthday!!!!! AGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

Howdy,

I'm doing this a day after Eric posted his last LiveJournal, because he didn't go into enough detail about how HE'S IN A PLAY WITH ME!!!!!!!!!!! *barf*

Okay, so here's the deal. The guy who got cast as Roy Pitt in my show Bad Habits didn't show up to rehersal last week and didn't call. He's out. You can't do that. Especially in the begining, because the director is trying to place everyone where they're gonna go. So David, the director, proceds to ask everyone if they know anyone who could pick this part up. We didn't want to miss another rehersal. So people are throwing out names but none of them would be able to commit. So, as a joke, I say "What about Eric? What about my boyfriend?" And to my surprise, David tells me to bring him in. Wow. So I call Eric after class, almost positive he's gonna laugh in my face, when to even more of my surprise, he says yes!!

So, the weekend rolls by and we talk about it some more and he starts getting used to the idea of being in the show. But on tuesday, he started getting cold feet. It started to dawn on him that he's NEVER done anything like this before. So I kept reminding him that he has nothing to lose. This isn't what he wants to do with his life. In December, when the show is over, he'll never have to worry about it again. That made him feel better.

So, we go and talk to David, he gets a script and tells the class that we have a new Roy Pitt. We didn't reherse that day, but Eric got to read his part with the woman who's playing his wife, the fabulous Shayla Hudson Williams. In the read through alone, he started getting the hang of it, playing with the words, and having fun. I'm excited, Shayla's excited, and now even Eric is excited. I'm gonna make a cute little actor of him yet.

So yea, keep your eyes out for the dates, it'll be right at the end of November, going into December.

TEEHEE!!!
