Theatre Changes Everything

A Miracle to Give You Hope
The morning after I upset The Filmmaker so much, his mother almost died.I found this out initially through a classmate of mine (who had read it on Facebook... which, of course, I couldn't have done, what with The Filmmaker unfriending me and all). And then I got a text from the Filmmaker saying she was in the hospital and to pray for her. And so I prayed.I got another e-mail from The Filmmaker today. And though part of me thinks I really need to stop posting his e-mails on here (for privacy), I think it's important to share this one.Dear Angela,I realized something recently. If the Halloween costume incident hadn't upset me so much th

Unfriended
I got an e-mail yesterday morning from The Filmmaker:"Thanks a lot for completely fucking humiliating me in front of everyone I know.I can't believe you told [Friend] to be the same thing for Halloween."And then I discovered that The Filmmaker had unfriended me on Facebook. No, I'm not kidding.So here's a little backstory...I think it was when I was in high school (let's say it was around 2001) when I came up with (what I thought was) a great Halloween costume... for a guy.

The Aforementioned Video
I added the promised video to I'm Golden, but I figured I'd better have it in a new post for anyone who had already marked-as-read in Google Reader.As a reminder, this was taped at an ungodly hour of the morning after a full day of tech, and I hadn't taken off all of my make-up. And I had to sing really quietly (and a cappella) so as to not wake up my roommates.Enjoy.What's Up? By Angela from Angela Boration on Vimeo.May you get up that great big hill of

I'm Golden
I came all the way from 1984 to say this:Happy birthday to me.I mentioned on another of the blogs I write (are you keeping up? I didn't think so) that today is my birthday. My 25th. The Golden Birthday that I share with Katy Perry. *waves to birthday twin*Now, I had been planning this particular birthday for years. Literally. Years. Back in 2005, back when I was still terrified of karaoke, a girl sang "What's Up?" by 4-Non-Blondes at a karaoke bar, and I knew I wanted to sing it on my 25th birthday (because the opening lyric references being twenty-five). And then a year ago, when I was doing karaoke regularly on Sunday nights, I realized that my 25th bir

I guess it's not really "guest-posting" when you're writing for another blog, but it feels like this post belongs on this blog, too... Unfortunately, I signed a contract, saying that I wouldn't duplicate any of my writing elsewhere... So I'll just have to give you a link...Click here to read the post.~A~Thanks for subscribing to (Ang[ela)boration]!
