My parents forced me back to KY at the end of September thanks to the economy.

However, I did get a call from an agency in Chicago for a 5 month gig but sadly, I was unable to leave town on less than 24 hours notice. All I needed was 19 more days!

Right now, the only comedy I am doing is writing spec scripts. I'm working on one for The Big Bang Theory right now.

I've been reading And Here's the Kicker by Mike Sacks. It's a great book and a must read for aspiring comedy writers.

A lot has happened since my last update in June.

I finished one improv class and thanks to yet another failed job, I am in the process of completing another improv class at SC.

I've been very active within the improv scene, going to as many shows as I possibly can. As a result, I now know most of the biggest names in the improv scene from a local perspective--some of you know that from our fb messaging.

SC is starting the process of getting ready for a new revue--if you go to see a mainstage show and stay for the free improv set, you can see the previews afterwards. Or you could just go to the free improv set.

As for the conservatory, I auditioned but didn't get in. I'll start iO classes during the next term,

I'm still trying to nail down a job--my parents will force me back to KY by the end of this month if I am unable to secure employment, If I have to fly back and forth for classes, believe me, I will...

I hung out with Robert Smigel, Bob Odenkirk, David Cross, Dino Stamatopoulos, and Louis CK on Thursday night.

TV decided to freeze up while typing this entry. Sad.

Before my Sundays start getting hectic with work, Stu and I arranged to meet up before his Sunday class at SC. It was nice in that after brunch, I was able to hang out with my old SC classmates from Acting 2.

Afterwards, I reserved a ticket for the ETC show that was performing Sunday night. I would have preferred the mainstage show but they were close to selling out so I had to settle for ETC. It was hilarious. I suggested baseball and Star Wars for two improvised scenes. Awesome.

It's been over a month and a half since my last blog, if not it's awfully close to it.

I had two interviews with the movie theater and they did hire me, only it took me two weeks to find out that they were bringing me on. I go back on Sunday to fill out the paperwork. While the economy continues to slump, I'll be saving on movie tickets for myself and a guest.

Because of the job offer, which officially came on May 11, I enrolled in Improv for Actors at SC. I started that last Tuesday. I've had two classes and they have both been fun so far. We're learning how to improvise a scene based on characters, location, subtext, etc. Last week, we worked on blackouts as well. Today, we had a 90 minute musical improv workshop. Fun.

I saw 3 movies in May and got together with some cousins at various times. My DVD player broke so I had my parents buy a new one that my aunt and uncle brought up with them...that was a nice walk, 1.8 miles each way.

Last week had some ups and downs. My glasses broke and that wasn't fun.

I've been doing some writing in my free time and watching DVDs as well.
