And he's back. No update in a while... had been thinking of something relevant to say, but nothing came, so let's try something irrelevant.
Rehearsals have begun for my latest show, The Spy Who Left Me. And on the same days as the first two proper rehearsals, my two favorite TV spies returned to the air: Alias' Sydney Bristow and 24's Jack Bauer. Both determined,...

So. 2005. Let's review.
2004 has ended, so how did it go? Let's see...
First and foremost, 2004 was the year I finally got over my ex. As our anniversary approached, I realised spending it brooding held all the appeal of a trip to the fabric store. (That's none, FYI)
The spring brought hope for new love and new possibilities... which were crushed by fall....

Guesse what - I actually fell asleep last night - a whole night of sleep - but a whole night of nightmares too 
I don't want to sleep anymore

Thanks for your comment! 
I have read American Gods. I think I've read most of his stuff by now, actually. It's just that those happen to be my favorites. I think Neil Gaiman is brilliant.

And so the holiday weekend draws to a close. Some highlights...
Gaming with the Stewarts on the 24th. 90's Trivial Pursuit made its debut, and like every year, we laughed until we wept. Good times.
Dinner with the Pontings etc. on the 25th. God but I love roast turkey. Scattergories appeared, and despite some forceful debates on what was acceptable, good times had by all....

Hah. You should definitely come out New years. I don't know how long I'll be sticking around after midnight though. But maybe I can meet you when we go to breakfast.
Or if anything, we can chill and get a coffee sometime

Glad to hear that your Christmas was without disaster. I soooooo wish that I was in Calgary tonight but I get to spend New Years in the Great Moose Jaw by myself. I thought that I was gong to have at least one person that I wanted to spend the night with, but that changed in about 2 minutes. Oh well - drink lots and I'll tak to you next year

Mission accomplished. We made it: all three extended Lord of the Rings movies in one sitting. A power outage in Gina's neighbourhood tried to foil us, but to no avail. Just one little problem... Return of the King wrapped up at 4 AM, 8 hours before I had to be back at work in Calgary.
So I made a vow to myself: next time I...

I said on Friday (for those paying attention, if applicable) I'd do something cheerier on Sunday, and it's now Monday, so that's my bad, I guess.
Wow, my shoulder hurt today, seriously, you have no idea. And for no reason, far as I can tell. Okay, bad start as far as cheeriness goes... When you're working for 12 hours, doing a lot of things with...

You were in Heracles?
I never had the chance to go to Fringe, but I know Heather (one of my best friends from high school) and Jason (or I think his name is Jason... but anyway, I'm good friends with his bro, who did lights for when I was in a play).
Anyway, I added you as a friend! Hope you didn't mind

Yes, that would be Joe! 
I was in Prometheus Unplugged. If you have heard of Eugene Stickland... well, he was a judge at the one play festival back then. Anyway, he said my character sucked. Boo on him.
Anyway.... it's so weird when people meet on the net and then find out that they're friends of friends. Oh, what would we do without the net?

Random fun facts about the Danny G experience.
I speak a bizarre language forged from pop culture references, primarily Simpsons quotes. Hence the Mystery Quotes at the end of these posts.
I am occaisionally seized by a combination of piercing headaches and crippling lethargy making it hard to function, but easy to spew out factoids about my life. Perhaps they are migraines. I don't really...

I can't wait for the new years party in Calgary cause I need to get out of here right now
Duran Duran's coming to town in March. This may be the single most exciting thing that has happened or is likely to happen to me in some time. That's probably quite sad. I don't know. I've really stopped keeping caring about a great many things lately. Many of my friends might suggest that going through life in a sort of numb state devoid of severe...

There may be people out there who enjoy auditions. I can't imagine why. (insert your own joke about "People like that other awful thing," then pretend I said it. Everyone wins! 
This week was auditions for our spring show. I've been on both sides of the table in my day, and I don't care for it. As an auditioner, shooting for a role, it's scary....

Ah, the dance club.
Gina was in town Friday. You don't know her, but that's okay. Suffice to say she's a good friend, likes to go out dancing, but her fiance's been a bit of a goof lately and tends to refuse. Says it's not his thing. I reply that it's not my thing either, but I still friggin' go.
I always enjoy clubs more...

So perhaps I'm a little too prone to suggestion.
Let me explain. When I finish a new script, the first thing I do is start hurling it at close friends who are unafraid to tell me what didn't work and needs improvement. Earlier this year I handed one of my most recent to my friend John, who said that maybe it was time to try...

I could've sworn I did an introductory post, but I guess I mis-clicked something, so here goes.
I'm Dan. I write plays. Won some awards for it. Also, I work as a projectionist, which gives me time to write and to avoid those damned dirty customers.
Today is better. Wednesday, after the election results came in, I was angry. No, more than that, I had...

Hey dan! I'm going to decline your request to get into the Canada West group for now, just until you get a couple more journal entires under your belt. It's cool that you're in calgary though, maybe update once more and then re-apply.
I'm in Calgary too, and we're always doing fun stuff... well not always, but a lot.
I agree with you about the grudge too, fucking scary. I didn't even really see any of it because I had my eyes closed pretty much the whole time.
