gwendolyngraceOkay, first: I really miss Tim's Take!
Second:
The minute Gretchen started strategizing with her team about how to present a "unified front" to the judges, I knew she was going to flip. I just knew it. And OMG, Tim!!! If I didn't love him with the love of a thousand hearts and flowers already? Dood. I don't necessarily get the judges' decisions, but even they saw clearly what stuff Gretchen's made of. I just wish she had nailed her own coffin completely shut instead of leaving enough of a door to kick AJ through it. Poor guy. He totally did lose himself in the design (and of all the things on the runway, it was the worst, no question), but it's so frequently the case that the designer who loses his aesthetic in the challenge is the one who winds up taking the biggest misstep. I don't know that he'd have gone the distance, but it's unfortunate that he had to go home now and not later.
Is anyone else watching Austin and Santino's Road Trip? They're like fashion's odd couple. I'm kinda glad it's only half an hour.
So I auditioned for a production of As You Like It last night. I don't expect a callback - but if I am called back it will likely not be for Rosalind. Ironically, they opened a good number of parts to cross-gender casting, and believe it or not, I was too butch for the part of the girl-pretending-to-be-a-guy. The director had me read a scene as Jaques - which admittedly would be a cool role, as would Touchstone. Still. It's kind of unsettling to realize that I played Rosalind 10 years ago already and apparently I'm now too old. :(
Okay, Burn Notice season finale, yay!
ETA: Yup, no callback. Not surprised.
ETA2: OMG, Burn Norice finale! Whoa. Now too jazzed to go to sleep so I'll watch the Royal Pains finale too. (Thank goodness for the two shows' marathons yesterday and today.)
