New Digs, and name change coming (probably)

Hey, I'm back.

I suppose somewhere back in Blue Lake, in the confusion that was 2009, I lost track of the purpose of this blog, or lost the will to maintain it... nowadays I'm seeing a use for it, so here we go again...


A quick rundown: I've moved back to Denver, and have just gotten myself into a house. The house itself is in reality nothing more than a new investment strategy of my mother's. She was able to buy the thing and now, she's my landlord... There's a degree to which it is a sweetheart deal for me, of course, although for the first time as a renter I have to behave as if I actually own the place, and I will be paying all of the bills, taxes, upkeep, etc. As of right now I'm in the exhausting process of moving in--repainting the office, stripping forty years of paint off of the old brick fireplace, and getting ready for all of my stuff to arrive on Monday and Tuesday. I'll try to get some photos up soon...

I'm also trying to lay the foundation for a career as an artist, starting with a couple of theatre projects: THIRD BASE!, my comedy collaboration with Jerry Lee Wallace; and a shadow-puppetry adaptation of the Book of Jonah. To support this, I'm forming a production company of sorts, although I'm not going to incorporate in any formal way — yet. I'll be applying for fiscal sponsorship through Fractured Atlas. The process of creating a producing identity for myself is making me examine my whole life and career in a new light, something I hope to touch upon in these pages soon. And it's probably forcing me to take the name "Circo de Nada" away from this blog. Because this is the name I've wanted to have for a theatre company for a long time, now. And the time has come to start my company. More on all that later... for now I need to get back to scraping paint and installing puck lights under my cabinets.

Talk to y'all soon.
