I can't point out what it is.</p><p><em><small>Posted via <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/cosysoftware_en/">LiveJournal.app</a>.</small></em></p> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:arsgratiaartis3:48529 2007-11-22T18:11:31Z 2007-11-22T18:11:31Z Today has been very&nbsp;exciting. I bought a small Turkey last night&nbsp;that I decided to go ahead and &nbsp;cook. It is in the oven right now.&nbsp; I am ready to make a small feast.&nbsp;<br />In other exciting news It is SNOWING!!!! I am very excited about that right now. Well I hope all is well, Happy Turkey day to all. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:arsgratiaartis3:46902 2007-09-04T16:13:24Z 2007-09-04T16:13:24Z The state fair was awesome! I had a great time and we were able to get all sorts of free stuff. We were able to get about 10 free home depot gift cards. They range from 1, 5, 10, or 1000, so I can't wait to drop by and see how much they are worth. We then rode up on the space tower and saw the twin cities from above, high above. The day in all was rather fun, and although it was kind of hot, there was not humidity.&nbsp;<br /><br />I hope all is well with everyone down in Nac!!!! urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:arsgratiaartis3:46385 2007-08-15T16:51:09Z 2007-08-15T16:51:09Z <p>Minneapolis is such a beautiful city!! The weather is awesome, it does get hot sometimes but the humidity is nothing like east texas. Pictures will be coming soon of the city. I hope all is well with everyone! The drive up here was long but ok. The Guthrie itself is so amazing, I have gotten lost at least twenty times during my first two weeks. Tuesday started week three and I am still wide eyed and smiling as I walk into the rehearsal room.&nbsp;I am currently working on the show Jane Eyre and speaking of rehearsals...<br />I am about to start rehearsal so and update later I will do. </p> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:arsgratiaartis3:46042 2007-07-19T03:51:14Z 2007-07-19T03:51:14Z <p>Well the madness has begun and it feels like it's already been two weeks even though we are barely ending the third. I somehow forgot how tiring this workshop is. It somehow also seems as though I just finished it last year and now I am doing it again. Wierd.&nbsp;<br /><br />On another note, I leave town in 10 days. I am so stoked. I cannot wait, and feels as though each day goes by slower than the last. <br /><br /></p> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:arsgratiaartis3:45385 2007-04-08T08:30:13Z 2007-04-08T08:32:52Z <p>i can't wait.<br /><br /></p><a name="cutid1"></a><div class="ljcut" text="Read This!"><h1>McKellen to bring 'Lear' to Guthrie</h1><div>Minneapolis, New York and Los Angeles are the only U.S. stops for the production.

Minneapolis is one of three U.S. cities that actor Ian McKellen will visit with his portrayal of "King Lear," directed by Trevor Nunn for the Royal Shakespeare Company. It will run in repertory with Chekhov's "The Seagull."It's a very expensive operation, and we're going to have to sell out and subsidize with fundraising, but it's worth it," director Joe Dowling said Monday. "This is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity." The tour's only other stops are New York and Los Angeles. <p>&nbsp;</p></div></div><div class="storybody"><p>On the Wurtele Thrust stage, Alan Stanford's new adaptation of "Jane Eyre" opens the season in September. Twin Cities actor Stacia Rice takes her first lead role at the Guthrie in Charlotte Brontë's story. Guthrie associate John Miller-Stephany directs. </p><p>Minnesota poet Robert Bly will take a whack at Henrik Ibsen's "Peer Gynt," a fantasy that ranges from fjords to the inner psyche. "Peer Gynt" was five hours long at the Guthrie in 1983. Bly's script will be "muscular and spareOf cour," said Dowling. </p><p>Bly "is a highly respected poet and a man of these parts who understands the Scandinavian sensibility," Dowling said. "This will be shorter than five hours, but you know, you can't do 'Peer Gynt' without cracking a few eggs." </p><p>Dowling will direct "A Midsummer Night's Dream" starting in April 2008 and will conclude the Thrust stage's season, with Jeffrey Hatcher's adaptation of Nikolai Gogol's "The Government Inspector," opening in July 2008 </p><p>Gary Gisselman returns to direct "A Christmas Carol" over the holidays. </p><p><b>In the proscenium</b> </p><p>In the 700-seat McGuire Proscenium, Peter Rothstein, artistic director of Theatre Latté Da, opens the year in July with Noel Coward's "Private Lives." Dowling follows in September with a staging of Brian Friel's familiar "Dancing at Lughnasa." </p><p>Casey Stangl, who directed "Pygmalion" at the main stage, returns to direct Wendy Wasserstein's final play, "Third" next February. Stangl, once head of Eye of the Storm theater in the Twin Cities, lives in Los Angeles. </p><p>In May 2008, Marcela Lorca will direct "The Secret Fall of Constance Wilde," by Irish playwright Thomas Kilroy, about the private lives of Oscar Wilde and his wife. </p><p>The Guthrie also announced eight shows for the Dowling Studio, of which five will be produced by local companies. Highlights include "The Pillowman" by Martin McDonagh, to be staged by Wendy Knox for Frank Theatre, and Robert Berdahl's look at musician Tom Waits, "Warm Beer, Cold Women." </p><p>For more information and tickets, call 612-377-2224 or go to <a href="http://www.guthrietheater.org/"><font color="#663366">www.guthrietheater.org</font></a>. </p></div></div> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:arsgratiaartis3:45223 2007-03-18T05:47:15Z 2007-03-18T05:47:15Z In the light of the sun, is there anyone?

Apparently we are the closest best buy to his house in Marshall. Everyone in the store went crazy, he was shopping for about 20 minutes and he spent almost an hour in the store taking pictures with my managers, employees, signing autographs and such. And then when he finally was able to get to his car, he was bombarded with more people who wanted pictures. It was too funny, we had customers coming in who were yelling at us, "ok, how do i get this picture of me and george on my computer off of my phone!!!" I just laughed and pointed them toward our wireless department. That sure made the night go faster. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:arsgratiaartis3:43127 2006-04-23T06:51:45Z 2006-04-23T06:55:04Z silence OAP wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. that's always good.<br />that's all about that.<br /><br /><br />r.i.p. urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:arsgratiaartis3:42792 2006-04-05T03:03:48Z 2006-04-05T03:03:48Z Brand New Love Okay so I have been talking to a friend on aim for about 4 months now thinking this entire time that it was someone else.
