[neverwhere]

It was 101 degrees here today. 101 -- and I live AT THE BEACH. *whinge!*
And people insist there's no such thing as global warming!? Gahhh. Apart from anything else, this heat is giving me the frizziest, most obnoxiously huge Jewfro hair ever. *groan*


I rediscovered my craptacular Cafe Press shop last week (which still had some very old design ideas for shirts I was working on but never got around to finishing in it) and made some bumper stickers for my car, and I must say they look gorgeous. Look! I'm sure no one driving behind me will squeal NEIL when they see it, but my sticker looks beautiful and makes me happy. I think I'm going to order loads more and put them on whatever takes my fancy -- bags, notebooks, lots of things -- because I feel gleeful just looking at it. Which is rather pathetic I know, but I don't care. So there. :-P

Oooh! I'm going to order a license plate holder, but I have absolutely no idea what to write on it, so I'd really appreciate it if you could give me some suggestions. Pervy Hobbit Fancier? My other car is the USS Enterprise? Eddie Izzard/Monty Python/Princess Bride/Insert Fun Film Here quotes? PLEASE HELP!
Seriously. I need help. :)


And finally...I have three auditions next month, wooohooo! Kiss Me Kate, The Tempest, and Assasins.
I'm so excited, I might finally be able to SING again! Oh joy. :)

OOH, Nevvie, I'm SO excited for you. I also know how you feel, since I had to miss every audition the college had for plays, even though the director of the last show was literally begging me to audition. :(

But break a leg on all your new auditions. Which part are you going for in Kiss Me Kate?

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I'm just auditioning for a role in the chorus, because there's no chance in hell I'd get one of the principles (too much dance! Aiiii), and that's totally fine with me -- I'm sure the casting director will be impressed enough to see a fat girl tap dance. *grins*

[laizeohbeets.livejournal.com]

HAHAHA. I heart that show. I would definitely go out for Lois if I was auditioning. Then again, "Why Can't You Behave" has been my "reperatoire song" for about three years now. *snick*

[airemay.livejournal.com]

YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! GO YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!! :D

[disgruntledjenn.livejournal.com]

Oooh, auditions. I didn't even KNOW about these because I was too lazy to go looking for them.

*Ponders* I might audition too. I played Biianca a million years ago in Kiss Me Kate when I was staying with my aunt and uncle and would LOVE to play her again. But then again my crash diet has yet to show it's effects so I highly doubt they would cast a rather orc'ish looking one like me. I might like to do ensemble though...

And as for the Tempest, i've done FAR TOO MUCH Shakespeare already so I dunno about that.

And I know EXACTLY what you mean about the heat/hair. I've been bitching constantly about the heat out here for the past few days and my hair takes about a whole bottle of gel to keep it from looking like a sad excuse for an afro.

[kasyx.livejournal.com]

Hugs! Gleeful sticker! Go Nevvie!

[lisaofdoom.livejournal.com]

I'm so jealous of the heat. It snowed here today.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

SNOW!?

Whoa.

Will the weirdness of our weather never cease...

[lisaofdoom.livejournal.com]

I'm okay with snow in the WINTER, but at the end of April?!

[disgruntledjenn.livejournal.com]

Oh and as for Assasins, I told myself I'd stay away from anything Sondheim *le shudder*

They need to put on Jekyll and Hyde around here someplace, It's been one of my dreams to play Lucy the prostitute (that sounds wrong) since I saw the show a million years ago with Chuck Wagner *swoon* in the lead.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Good and Evil is one of my main audition songs. :)

[disgruntledjenn.livejournal.com]

LOL, I used to sing that for auditions too! I wanted to sing "Bring on the Men" from the touring production but I have a feeling my voice coach would have flogged me to an inch of my life if I sung that song in front of everyone at an audition.

*runs of singing* "soooooooooooooooooo lets bring on the men, and let the fun begin, a little touch of sin, why wait another minute?......"

[ladyguenivere.livejournal.com]

hot. too f***ing hot. gah.

on another note... hope you'll be joining us for the Azkaban movie viewing. :D

check out azkaban_oc. *grin*
thought I'd pimp it to you cos we haven't seen ya lately at the hp_california meetups.

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I know I haven't been at any meetups, I'm sorry! I always work weekends and I never find out about the meets too late to ask for the day off. *mope*

But OF COURSE I'm going to the midnight Azkaban showing. Wild thestrals couldn't keep me away! :D

[ashfae.livejournal.com]

Auditions! KICK ASS!!!!!!

I still remember hearing you sing "For the Longest Time", and I still wish I had a recording. =)

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I've had three years of voice lessons since then, and I sound so much better.

Well, I can hit that killer Phantom of the Opera note (on a good day) without sounding like a dying warthog anyway. *grins*

[ashfae.livejournal.com]

GAAAH! I want to hear!!!

And I want to molest your icon.

Eddie quotes!

[moondroplette.livejournal.com]

Cake or death?
(Fucking nuts!) I long for a grapefruit.
Do you have a flag?...No flag, no country!
It's Popeman! (and Altar Boy...)
AAAAAAAH! I'm covered in beeeeees!
Hello Sue! I've got legs! Do you like bread?
I was dead at the time!
I was on the moon at the time! With Steve.
(I did an original sin...) I poked a badger with a spoon.
I like to have sex with people who have strong personalities

License plate holder suggestion:

Je suis le Presidente de Burundi

Break a leg re: the auditions in case I don't get a chance to say it again (I'm gonna be running around like mad in the next month or so). :)

[lady-luiniel.livejournal.com]

"My name is Inigo Montoya - if you can read this, prepare to die!"

*giggles* Maybe that's too long. :)

"Who said life is fair? Where is that written?"

"If you can read this, you will be assimilated." (ok, not any of the ones you asked for, but figured it was fun too ;) )

[sillypants.livejournal.com]

Yay, yay, yay! The best of luck in the auditions, sweetpea *kisses*

[queeniefox.livejournal.com]

Good luck in the auditions! (I adore the Tempest.)

[offbalance.livejournal.com]

Eee! Good luck on the auditions!! :D

And one thing for a license plate holder could be Castle Stormer. As in, "Bye Bye Boys! Have fun storming the castle!" It's a little esoteric, but I thought it was kinda funny. o_o

[jacinthsong.livejournal.com]

Good luck, darling! You have to post some mp3s (not those sodding phoneposts, I can't play them) of your singing sometime, I want to hear ♥

And I agree that "If you can read this, prepare to die" is clearly the best.

[soupytwist.livejournal.com]

Urgh, heat. Yet another reason why you're being stolen back to Blighty at the first opportunity.

*hugs you and your jewfro*

and good luck with the auditions, my dear.

[soupytwist.livejournal.com]

Oh, and I think you should have stuff just reading 'The Nevvie'. Heh.

Also, I was reading Neil's journal before and going 'EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE' at the cuteness and loveliness, and then I thought you ought to be here to squee too because you get it, and the thought that you exist made me happy. :)

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

I am The Nevvie! THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE!

*gigglesquee*

> the thought that you exist made me happy. :)

*BLUSH*

Oh, wow. Eeeeee. Wow. That is without a doubt one of the most incredible things anyone has ever said to me. Thank you so much. :))))

[eyre-lasgalen.livejournal.com]

My other car is a barouche!!!

it's geeky, fannish and VERY esoteric! That's my only vote.

Lovoo!!!

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

*giggles*

Maybe if my actual car wasn't such a piece of shit, so the lie would be more believable...although I suppose that's the irony of it. Hmmm...*ponders*

:-P~

[eyre-lasgalen.livejournal.com]

Otherwise, my other vote is for Blue's: "My name is Inigo Montoya. If you can read this, prepare to die"

First time caller, long time listener :p

License plate holder ideas:

1. Gondor needs no license plate
2. If you can read this, i've just run you over
3. My other car is a time machine (I *like* this one)
4. My other license plate holder is witty
5. License plate courtesy of Loom TM
6. This is the second biggest license plate holder i've ever seen.

For the unenlightened, if 5 and 6 are unfamiliar, you haven't played enough graphical adventures.

My other car fights like a dairy farmer

[angelislington.livejournal.com]

Hello you :)

'My other car is a Time Machine' is definitely in the top 3 choices. It's so obvious I can't believe I didn't think of it before. Doh.

I think I might make a bumper sticker courtesy of Loom TM ;-)
