No coffee for the weary....

Must….have…coffee! Staying up late writing and than waking up at noon is not really working out. This morning, there was no French Vanilla, International Delight creamer. I mean, how is a person supposed to manage and maintain a level of functionality without a decent cup of coffee? Don’t even get me started on the lack of pastries. No donuts. I swear if the owner of this dump doesn’t pick it up soon, I’m going to have to check out.

Anyway, another Broadway actor has come out of the closet. Matt Doyle has added his name to the list that already includes Jonathan Groff, Gavin Creel, Nick Adams and Max Von Essen. There are more but these are the youngsters. Collectively, they weigh about 42 pounds but they stand to add a great deal more in value for being so brave, so young. Anyway, Matt did it very subtly and with a great deal of class, in my opinion. He provided a link to a photo shoot, a day in the life type thing and a part of his day was dinner with his “boyfriend” Wes. If I assume that Wes is Wesley Taylor of Rock of Ages, then his name should be added to the above list and the total weight should be increased to 48 pounds. LOL. Kidding. Seriously though, a change is coming and I like it.

So I stayed up late again last night writing my play. I reread it this morning and for the first time in my life, related to something I’ve written, I think it’s good. I think it’s really good. It’s not ready yet and still needs some tweaking. I changed the direction of one characters completely. Because of that change, I need to change the first act dialogue to set up the revelation. I know these people so well at this point; I can almost visualize it. That is weird since I stand amongst the auditory people of the world. So I’m a little tired from lack of coffee and donuts so I’ll end this here for now.
