No kidding. Last night, I had the Actor's Nightmare. I'm moments before a show, I don't know my lines (I think we were doing "Long Days Journey into Night"), and my costuming is all wrong. The crowd is tiny, and I do believe we were on a train. erk, the Dinner Train theatre crowd. *Shudder*
As an actor and improviser for the past 10 years, I can honestly say I've only had this dream once maybe twice in the past. Wow. Weird. And I'm only directing a show right now, no lines to learn what so ever.
I now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.
I recently started reading Declan McCullagh's Politech newsletter / email list. There are some well informed, well connected people on this list, that or they are a group of no-sh!t bullsh!tters. I suspect that it's the former, and look forward to good tech information as it relates politics in our current uncertain society.
*sigh* Back to the grind.
My task over the next few days is to determine whether Peter Tschipper's MsgQ module will be enough for a project that I am working on, or if I have to write a queuing system of my own devising. I'd like to make one that uses a mysql back end with possibilities of hooking to an IBM MQ series queue (yet another package to read through), so I'm thinking I might have to build onto what ever I find anyway.
No rest for the wicked.
