so, where the hell have i been lately? things in my life have been so incredibly hectic i have no idea where i stopped blogging about it. hectic usually makes interesting blogs. anyway, let’s recap where i’ve been and talk about some fabulous happenings.

so, let’s begin with the fact that i’ve officially finished my second year here at camp emerson. two more of these to go and they’ll give me a piece of paper that says that i can design websites. it’ll be grand to have slappy hand me that degree on the citi wang theatre’s stage. i’ve decided i’m inviting leslie cormier to my graduation party. we can drink classy drinks and discuss art.

as of this morning, too fabulous for words is officially a business as recognized by the city of boston. we have that piece of paper and everything. jeremy and i went to city hall with our notarized application to establish a partnership and operate under the name “too fabulous for words,” and the nice lady at the city clerk’s office photocopied, folded, and stapled our way into establishment. we even have a tax id number. i’m rather excited. tomorrow we will be opening our too fabulous for words business account at bank of america.

i’m rather frightened of how real this all is. only a couple months ago, too fabulous for words was an idea and a plan to pursue sometime in the future. the future is now and i have a business card. i have an effing business card. i am the lead designer of a real business. i no longer will tell my tourists that i do freelance design work. i will tell them that i founded an actual business. they will be super impressed. and totes jeal.

i’ve also moved into my new apartment in dorchester with the fabulous shannon rosa and ivette rivera. y’all should send me happy things in the mail:

kyle hemingway
6 brinsley street, apartment 1
dorchester, ma 02121

i’ll post pictures sometime soon. it’s really quite a fabulous space. decorated, of course, in the asian style.

the boston pride committee remains well.

auditions for f.u.d.g.e.’s production of into the woods are coming up rather quickly and i’m quite nervous and excited for them. i am very happy but also very nervous to be revisiting this show. but it shall be wonderful.

oh! oh! also, i am going to the berkshires this weekend with jeremy. from friday to sunday, i will officially be on vacation. it will be nice to have a little getaway before the real work schedule for the summer begins. it’s been nice coming in at 11 and leaving at 5. what’s going to happen when i have to be here at 9? eep! whatevs.

i think that’s all i’ve got. i’m going to end it with the five things i’m most thankful for maintenant.

1. jeremy and too fabulous for words being official.
2. my parents for being fabulous lately.
3. my amazing apartment and roomies, most notably the ever-fabulous shannie m. rosa.
4. my paycheck which i deposited this morning.
5. the trip to tarzhay that shannie and i will be making this evening. j’adore le tarzhay.

p.s. go see VACANCY right now. right now. stop reading this and go see it. it is amazing.

so here i sit in nina sokoler’s apartment, pondering life and other such things worth pondering. i went to rehearsal for “i sing!” tonight, we worked on blocking mostly, with some music refreshment in between. it was nice. i also got the chance to finish the website for the f.u.d.g.e. theatre company when i got home, so you can all mosey on over to www.fudgetheatre.com and check it out. and while you’re there, buy tickets to “i sing!”

where are my manners?! happy new year everybody! i can’t believe that it’s already 2007, either! this really is ridiculous. but i’m trying to get through alright. it’s officially day three and i haven’t fucked anything up too badly yet. let’s continue that trend, shall we?

new year’s eve was absolute heaven wrapped up in the best people i could ever have hoped to call friends and an amazing drink called a pouty princess. jeremy, you are a god as far as a martini shaker is concerned. brunch the following morning with the entire crew was equally entertaining and amazing, despite our waitress’ inability to serve. she should rethink her career choice.

i’d love to stay and chat some more, mes amis, but i have work in the morning tomorrow and therefore should start catching up on sleep at some point to make up for the severe lack of it i’ve had the past few days.

today i am incredibly thankful for…

1. the f.u.d.g.e. theatre company’s website being complete.
2. nina sokoler’s generous offer of her couch this week and next.
3. my mother.
4. new episodes of ugly betty starting thursday.
5. the best new year’s celebration i’ve had to date.
