acting debut

tonight is my acting debut. i'm in this year's BPPA Cabaret. BPPA means book publishing professional association. yes, i paid to get in. they put on informative seminars. truthfully, i haven't been to one in a while. they fall on nights when i've other stuffs going down. i can't think of exactly what, now, but i'm sure it was something. 

the show is tonight. it's a bunch of skits about book publishing - basically making fun of it all. every industry can be cliquey but book publishing is especially so. i know i'm making it sound like we think we are really great, but that isn't what i mean. people who work in book publishing, especially in canada and especially in toronto are notoriously underpaid. canadian book publishing couldn't even exist without government funding! let's just say you can live on your salary but you can't buy expensive luxury goods. anyway, you have to laugh at yourself and that's what it's all about. i'm hungry.
