This morning I met with Rebecca Baillie who is a CMU alum and the production manager of a nearby theater. We got coffee and got to talk a bit about what's going on with me, what her company does, and so on. She was amazingly nice, and definitely a good hand to have shaken. I do wish that having coffee weren't such a standard fallback - I just don't drink the stuff!
My computer bit the dust last night. I bought a new one today (it was cheap, so I am crossing my fingers as to how long it lasts). I spent $800 between the computer, warranty, tax, external hard drive, and a pair of speakers. The computer I bought seems like it should be a good fit for me, I just read a very positive review here:
PNC Bank didn't let the charge go through, not sure why, so I had to put it on my credit card. I have to call PNC to figure out what's going on, since I know I had the money in my account.
To help pay for the computer I got my first paying job today! I am going to be a PA on Holidate:
The specific job title is Sequester PA. The concept of the show is that two women trade cities to date men in different places. I will be staying with the woman traveling to LA, and pretty much taking care of any of her hospitality needs (groceries, dry cleaning, coffee, etc.). I get a free hotel room for a week, it'll be pretty exciting. The phone call was really rushed, so I do not know how much I will be making, but I suppose anything is better than nothing, eh?
I will be sure to keep you all posted as I know more about the project and the position. The best part is that since it is only the 16th through the 21st of August, I could still accept the stage management and touring positions for which I am still under consideration.
So cool. :)
