Highlights

Since the beginning of September,

-I had a lovely dinner with Kim, which gave us much needed catch-up time
-I had a great audition, a callback that I did a great job at, and then...nothing.
-I went to the dentist, and my teeth look good.
-I went to see shows three nights in a row: "Spitfire Grill," my friend Kate's solo piano show, and Matt's friend Jackie's band's rock show.
-I did a theater piece in Battery Park, which involved me dressing up like a newsie and yelling things in public. Then photographers took pictures of me, and the director is going to make them into a comic book.
-I had dinner at Bouchon with CC and her sister Cara.
-Tony Kushner ate at Bouchon and I brought him his coffee. This was the same night it was announced that he'd won a $200,000 prize for playwrighting. This is in addition to his Pulitzer, his Tonys, and his Oscar nominations. I was the only one who recognized him and knew what had just happened to him. I was so excited I couldn't handle it.

Tony Kushner--on the day of the announcement of his $200,000 prize? This definitely tops the Bruce Willis day.

Looking forward to seeing you in the funny papers. (old saying)
