Looking for a new venue for BabyHole

Yeah. Did I say that before? I'm looking for a new venue for BabyHole. Our season opening is supposed to be September 2nd, but I'd like to do a BabyHole Showcase for JC Friday on that Friday.

What am I looking for in a venue? One that will provide the sound equipment and booze and doesn't mind rock bands. Must be very close the the PATH train. People from New York are very cranky and get lost easily.

What will I do for you? I will book and host the show, promote and set up the space.

Why should your establishment have BabyHole? Because we packed Toy Eaters on a regular basis with thirsty audience and it is an asset to the community and the arts. It just may be the best comedy open mic in the New York area.

Why is BabyHole homeless? Because our last venue dissolved.

Putting my education to refuse

My parents will finally eat their words that my "education" was a "waste of money" because I will soon be posting videos on the internet.

I've finally gotten my video editing stuff and started recording my keyboard stuff. Boy, those piano lessons will pay off. And so will that Tisch film thing I have...and maybe even the Canadian math degree? No, that's probably still useless.

Anyway, videos are coming...Serious this time guys. Serious.

But in the meantime, I will be tutoring ESL. Call me!

Hard Times on Hot Sauce Avenue

This is for all of you who RSVP'd to my taping on Friday. If not, you can go fuck yourself.

Thank you all for RSVPing to my fancy multi-media one-woman show video-taping for special people this Friday.

It makes my heart heavy and eyes watery to tell you that the show has been CANCELED due to technical difficulties. Well, the show has not really been canceled, merely delayed, and I will keep your RSVP for the future. The show will most likely premier in the Fall, and you will be the first to know.

What exactly was the technical difficulty? Well, it had to do with the crappiest computer in the world. My computer hates technology and ambitions. I ordered a new one, but there were shipping problems, and it's not going to get here for a while. Without multi-media, there is no show. Please don't be upset. Perhaps you can complain to NJSCA for having such a tight deadline.

Once again, thank you for RSVPing. I appreciate your support. And since you are all special people in my address book, I will email you video previews for Fall's show, and keep you on the guest list for then.

I wish you all good times on Hot Sauce Avenue.

Thanks!
Melissa

Should I quit my job, or should I just quit my life?

I just got offered the role of Ethel in Moon Over Buffalo. It's a fun role, and I like the play. I get to play a deaf emasculating grandma who's full of hatred. Unfortunately, I just changed my work schedule to weeknights, so I won't be able to make rehearsal. I'm seriously thinking about quitting my job to do free acting. Then again, I told my boss off on Saturday night, so I might not have a job to quit anyway.

Why, oh why, can't I be a rich girl?

Oh, that's right. I'm lazy.

Please gnaw my foot off

I'm about to gnaw my own foot off to get out of work this Friday, July 4th. Fun that I'll be missing out on:

-My intern/sister is coming back from France.
-My boyfriend/roommate is going to be a fighting hot dog mascot at the hot dog eating contest at Coney Island.
-Fire works and barbecues.

I hate working.

Poor BabyHole

Apparently, everyone from Toy Eaters has abandoned the space, skipped town, and then it was ransacked by local scumbags, who took everything they could find, including the artwork on the walls and piping.

So BabyHole has no home for the fall. I'll start looking for venues, but this town is the pits.
