… I had to call the electric company to ask for an extension to pay off a pretty enormous bill. Paid some of it today. Now I have a week to figure out (currently with a non-existent income) where/how I will find the money to pay it off.
I also have to rewrite a play (Frogway) I wrote 27 years ago… and finish it quick if it is to be produced back in Malaysia.
My writing partner (the composer of Frogway) and I are talking about working together again on some new exciting projects.
The article that I wrote and posted on Jungle Webs… was also posted on Fresno Famous and received a positive response from the webmaster of the local Arts Council. This could mean possible business for Jungle Webs.
Connected to that… a marketing company that has been on the boards with a couple of friends will have to be fast-tracked to take full advantage of the upcoming possibilities.
The Rogue has won the Central Valley People’s Choice Award as a Hidden Gem of this region. It was released in a nice glossy edition as part of the local newspaper yesterday with a story and a great picture of the current producer, promotions director and me. (Sorry, no web links to this.)
There are a couple of great personal and professional things that I’m not at liberty to talk about at the moment. One is coming up soon.
There is a possible upcoming gig at a Jazz club in Shanghai to perform that I may not be able to do.
All of this while I have a total of $72 to my name and an uncertain horizon of an income stream. Ain’t life grand? The thing is… its not new to me. My life has always been a swirling yin and yang that happens all at the same time. Exciting, crazy, desperate, honored, elated, unsure… always been that way. LOL.
EDIT: Woke up this morning and not feeling too hot today. Sour tummy and just a general “out of it” disposition. Hopefully it passes soon and it’s not “that thing” that has been making the rounds that I have successfully avoided so far.
EDIT 2: So, I visited Tish’s blog and found this cool service/widget that I’m trying out. Check the sidebar under “Recent Readers”. Feel free to check it out.
