Disheartened

I probably expect too much. The last two auditions seemed to go very well. Directors, DPs all very encouraging. Went all the way on the last one--dyed my hair jet black--which I now totally regret. Looks like Dennis Kucinich after a bad day at the beauty parlor. The time before that was an audition at Akron U on the very worst day of the winter.

The one before at the comic shop in Strongsville was never much of a prospect. The part was probably already cast before I got there; but they let me read a few lines. Like a bad audition on "American Idol." They were very nice; but seemed truly bored.

The clincher, though, was last Friday night when I tried to explain my plot concept to a friend about what I thought would be a killer zombie movie. She couldn't get away fast enough. And then I sulked away.

Ooops--just heard from another director. The DVD for "Unsatisfied" (I'm the only actor in this recent student film) is on the way!

Things aren't so bleak, after all.
