Star of Stage and Screen
Yesterday, an interesting thing happened to Villain. It all started when... the day before a Talent Agent called J (having been a fine actor in a fine play several years back, he has been baraged with such calls) wanting him to come down to some "audition" type thing near the Mall of America. Ok, great. The next day rolls around and we decide to go. I say that I must maintain a British accent the entire time we are in the building. So, we get there, and it pretty much consists of Psycho Stagemoms and their darling Progeny, waiting to be discovered. Finding the whole thing utterly amusing, I decide to "audition", too. Accent and all. So, turns out I am from London, but will be in school for a while... etc. We have to read this commercial in front of a camera. Mine is for McDonald's and the only way I can really read it is kind of slutty, so I go for it. The woman says my accent is lovely and that I should be able to get lots of commercial work because of it. Fantastic. I call back today and turns out they weren't looking for a 26 year old Londoner for any of their TV shows. Quelle surprise! Nonetheless, the game was quite fun. I was, for those of you who know her, channeling Domino, albeit an extremely sedated Domino. No whips, firearms, or Entropy, just a lark.
Also, last Monday, I became a dark brunette. It is delicious and I think I love it. I am suddenly much more mysterious and deadly. The perfect combination. I hope it lasts well.
A full week of skool has elapsed and I am still alive. Teaching is going smoothly and the French class that I was rather worried about is (so far) proving to be far less advanced than I had supposed. Phew.
In crafty news, I made a red czech glass necklace and bracelet set. It is pretty simple, but the color wows me so. I want to make everything in that red!! Delectible. It matches the Pomegranate Izze I am currently savoring. mmm
Also, I finally have a picture of the kanzashi I bought from Ugly Agnes' Merchbooth. So pretty!
I have been knitting and finished the 3/4 sleeved One Skein Wonder (actually 4) made with Knitpicks alpaca-silk. I love it. Pictures to follow. Also, Orangina is going well, but extremely slowly.
Off to work in a bit. Hopefully I can get some French homework done there...
