Latest Colbert Report

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.

Been waiting for a parcel to arrive with some of camera gear in it, and it's taken ages cos of a load of mix-ups. But it arrived today, and now i have all of my lenses and other bits of camera gear prior to heading away on a trip where I'm the photographer (it was gonna be tricky with only 2 lenses).

Big sigh of relief.

Got an audition for a production of Macbeth later today. First time doing Shakespeare, so wish me luck! And possibly, a few dozen of the other audtionees going into temporary comas.

We got bored of humming to ourselves in the office while filing so we have put on music from my phone.... we are listening to the Labrynth soundtrack while reviewing all our files now

Makes me very happy

Congrats. But you're not supposed to name it, and are meant to call it "That Scottish Play" instead, otherwise the production will be cursed.

I pray for random people to slip into comas every night already, so I'll just go ahead and work your rivals in, no problemo.

The job I interviewed for is checking my references, which at the very least isn't a bad thing.

Remember that friend of mine who got photographed in New York? Well, when we were catching up today she divulged her secret-the trip had been about potential modeling opportunities and apparently she did really well. This could be the chance of a lifetime to go live and work in New York, so happy for her

Y'know it IS socially aceptable to hunt your references down and tie them to a chair until the take the call.

So that's a nice switch from 'they interviewed someone else and it went better'.

Of course this doesn't get you off the hook for the caligulaic festivities. It just means you're celebrating instead of drowning your sorrows.

Yes, it's much better. I feel hesitant to celebrate though until I get the official word.
