Give My Regards To Broadway (George M!)

I feel like giving up show business.  Now before you freak out, hear me out.  Ok, I may not have many valid points, and I'm the king of flip flopping, but here's where my mind has been the last day or two.  I don't have the energy or motivation to keep going.  I'm tired of moving every year and working in a restaurant industry to support my theatre habit.  Even the restaurant isn't a reliable source of income anymore, what with the economy the way it is.  I just want a stable job right now.  I want to know that I'm making money and I want to spend it on clothes and travel.  I want to be able to strip or do internet porn and not have to worry that it'll come back to haunt me when I'm famous.  I don't think I'll ever give up performing completely.  I'd love to work with children, like ArtsMonkey did.  I'd love to teach them.  I'd actually LOVE to be a teacher at this point in my life, but I refuse to spend a million dollars going back to school to get a proper education.  I want to teach Mad Hot Ballroom.  I want to be a nanny, maybe, like PA and Neenia.  My sister has a friend in New York, married disgustingly rich, has a child.  Said they're looking a trust worthy nanny.  I'm thinking of joining their family as a caregiver.  I really really really don't want to give up on my goal of living in New York.  I can still pursue my comedy on the side.  And boys.  There are loads of boys in NYC that I'd love to have sex with.  Oh, on a side note, I'm also seriously ready to give up my virginity to someone.  Boy or girl.  Anyone.  I'm just in the mood to really fuck, you know what I'm saying?  Talk to me in a couple of days and I'll be singing a different tune, I bet.  But for now I want to be a slutty bi-sexual New York City nanny.  Is that too much to ask?

Except for the giving up on the dream crap, this is my favourite blog ever. Despite the hopelessness of theatre, this blog seems somehow...filled with hope.

So here are a few things I'm thinking about what you've brought up:
1. Nannying is totally steady work. I'm not noticing the recession at all.
2. Bottom's Dream Theatre Company is thinking very seriously (like in planning mode) of starting a kids program called "Bottom's Dreamers" and we would love to have you on board.
3. My brother and I, in 5 years, are going to start a kids TV show--kind of bringing it back to the Elephant Show style but adding even cooler things and we (and by we I mean I) would love to have you on board.
4. Fuck. Do it. I totes know what you mean. Someone would love to have you on board.

Jump on board!

Oh, ps, I can't believe I forgot the totally obviously necessary insisting that you do not quit theatre, but pull a Susan Blackwell.

Mmmm, totes pull a Susan Blackwell.

1. What's Mad Hot Ballroom?

2. Why in Satan's name would you want to become a nanny. Have you not read ANY of mine and PA's blogs???

3. However, you WOULD be in New York. Do it. Please inform the family that I will be visiting frequently and staying at their place. Oh, and no, I will not babysit.

4. I believe that you can absolutely be a slutty bi-sexual New York City nanny. Kill those vampires and make it happen.
