Oh hey...

So it's been a while.  In my defense I've been, like, super busy.

I've been rehearsing for Evita and have been having so much fun - learning tango, doing that whole singing thing, and just being around my art is fun.  Rehearsals are at the University of Chicago and it's BEAUTIFUL.  Wow.  And the rehearsal facilities are so nice.  Don't get me wrong, I loves me some Vilas basement, but....yeah.

A few callback auditions since I last wrote, so we'll see.  I was supposed to be at another one tonight, but I turned it down.  Now, I don't want to sound like a theatre snob, but I received the sides and music and it STUNK.  Barely any artistic integrity, lyrics were bad, music was predictable, blahblahblah.  Actors need money, yes, but at what cost?  I'll just audition for something else - simple.

Mehran and I went to Hub 51 yesterday and had the BEST nachos.  I mean, they put all other nachos to shame.  Next time, however, I'll bring four other friends to share in them, because it was way too much for lil' ol' me.  Oooo then we walked down Hubbard St. to Andy's Jazz Club and LOVED IT.  Best jazz I've heard in Chi so far - complex, smooth, great individual solos, tons of latin beats, and fantastic talent.  I want to go back every night.

Tonight I've convinced my man to go get some fro-yo down on Halsted.  If you know me, you know I'm in love with dessert, especially of the frozen variety.  I'm reminded of the last time I got fro-yo, which was with the cast of Rocky Horror, and our Rocky got EVERY SINGLE TOPPING and ate it all up like a fatty, then proceeded to prance about stage in his underpants.  Here's looking at you, Nick Z

And here are some pictures of my recent happenings with friends and family.  Oooo and Persian food.

 Vonskie tribute for jazz in the park. So good and so fun!  We had awesome seats.

Leaving the concert.  This is seriously the coolest.

Bean.  Mehran's building is to the left of this picture! (And a block or two down Michigan Ave)

Back for birthday shenanigans.

Mehran's Persian graduation party!  Friends came up to his cabin!  Let delicious food pictures commence! (Mehran's mom is amazing).

God Is An Astronaut Concert at The Subterranean in Bucktown.  So epic.

Just look at this picture.  I have the coolest parents ever.  

TEAM KEHRAN FTW!

 I leave you with a picture of Jason eating a burrito.  Yep.
