Tonight Heather and I were watching this new show on VH1 which featured my childhood idol - MC Hammer. The show was called “I Married MC Hammer“. I actually thought it was a pretty good show. It dealt with MC Hammer and his wife and how they met, married, lived through the high-points of Hammer’s rocket to stardom, and survived the downfall of his wealth and career. Through all the hardships they stayed together. I think that is pretty special. Most people who achieve that level of fame and fortune usually don’t stay married. But they did. I think the next show should be “I Married Bobby Brown”, or Bobby Brown could do a show called “I Married A Crackhead”.

It’s a good possibility that I will have one of my poems published in a new magazine! I might also be lending my face to a book cover! More info to come as the details get worked out…

My acting partner and I rehearsed our scene today incorporating blocking. It felt good to be up and moving to express what I’m saying and feeling in the scene. The only thing I worry about is “the slap” that happens at the end of the scene. My acting partner is suppose to react to something I say and slap me across the face. This is something we need to choreograph so that we both feel comfortable with it and it looks natural and organic when we perform it.

I’m itching to get out and perform. I need to find my next acting/performance project. I want to start gaining more visibility as an actor and entertainer.

I haven’t heard from any of my agents for a couple of weeks now. It’s frustrating. It also makes me nervous because I feel my agents might be losing faith in my marketability.

I found out another ex-colleague of mine is getting a divorce. He just had a baby last year. Divorce is so sad and unfortunately too common here in CA.
