Nikki posted a particularly scrumptious picture of Matthew McConaughey to our Wall of Sex, so I decided to represent my tastes by posting the screencap of shirtless Simon from "Objects in Space." Ko and I spent a few minutes appreciating the image, then I resigned to the fact that I would not be able to concentrate on my Jabberwock model until I rewatched the shirtless scene. I invited Ko to join me. There was much lusting and general droolage.

Me: So are you still a Mal fan?
Ko: Mal who?

Life is so good. Shirtless Simon is even better. And now I can return to my modeling projects with the renewed energy! Huzzah!

It compensates nicely for my disappointment this evening over "Lady in the Dark" auditions. I think my monologue and scene went very well, but the singing portion? I was nowhere near my best. I wasn't actively bad, but I don't think I'll be impressing anyone. I just chose the wrong song for my voice that day, and I wasn't really warmed up, and the acoustics of the room were pretty awful, and all those other excuses. Oh well, here's hoping I'll get the chance to redeem myself. The director said he still hadn't decided if he would hold callbacks, so I guess I'll wait and see.

In other news, last night I saw Aaron's Shakespeare Cafe, and he was utterly fabulous. Usually I'm not as fond of watching Shakespeare being performed, preferring to read it directly, but I take exception for the Underground Shakespeare Company. They are utterly awesome and quite hilarious. And afterwards, I returned to the room in time to get in on Ko's culinary action -- she made enchiladas for the suite, the boys, and a couple friends, and I was afraid that the shenanigans would be over by the time I returned. Mmmmmm, my belly is still singing in gastronomic delight.
