When stabbed in the heart, it's comforting to know the dagger was not poisoned.

Been busy beyond belief -- so much so that updating this thing has been low on the priority scale. All the things I've done so far:

* Finished up the Met season running through the techno-woods of "Die Walkurie" and had a nice little mini-run of "Armida"

* Co-starred with ACS in a little piece upstate about the Old West, which provided us with ( Read more... )

DEFY - Anti-Racism PSA from Sami Khan on Vimeo.

On my way home from rehearsal in the village Saturday, I saw an interesting sight: Two guys standing in the middle of Christopher Sheridan Square, holding a HUGE sign with some obscure and misconstrued biblical passages, shouting typical Christian Right nonsense into their bullhorn. My first impulse, upon seeing this was to go up to them and ( Read more... )

Back temping -- funny how I'm always updating this thing when I'm at a temp gig. My last day before the Met season starts up again. Also have a seminar scheduled for tonight with ACS's acting guru, Johnny, although my temp agency boss is refusing to let me out early to get there on time. Grrrrr ( Read more... )

Finally got a temp gig, after a week of hounding my agency and am working at a new client. So far, so good. Tonight, got a shoot for a comedy short with ol' "Brig" boys AG and TM in Brooklyn. Playing a vampire as an office temp. Silly, I know, but it'll be good to see my boys again. Completely exhausted from a fitful night's sleep. At least I ( Read more... )

Haven't been sleeping well in the last few days as ACS and I try to find some happy medium between AC temps that don't roast me or freeze her. So, completely exhausted, I'm back at the ad agency, killing time in between doorbell rings and trying desperately to stay awake. Got practically nothing done yesterday, as ACS was feeling sickly and I had ( Read more... )

Went up to Albany for 36 hours to help R and her siblings clear out the old storage unit filled with my grandparents' old crap (they've been dead 5 years, not much progress since then). Despite some massive fireworks with insults and venom flying everywhere, the siblings managed to put their collective crap on the back burner long enough to work ( Read more... )

Have now moved in with ACS to the West End Towers and am greatly enjoying the new place, which is more than big enough for all of our stuff and will be perfectly cozy when we get all the boxes unpacked. Pictures will be posted on Facebook later on. Poor little Ozzy the dog is a bit confused about his new digs, but he'll adjust ( Read more... )

We found a lovely place, which we've signed a 2-year lease on, in Manhattan, not far from Lincoln Center! Now comes the massive amounts of cleaning, hiring movers, whittling down my collected accumulation of 5 years' worth of crap to a managable amount, and packing the rest into neat little boxes. Whew ( Read more... )
