Oct. 12th, 2003 07:33 pmI got a call today from the ever-friendly Kathleen at Facets Multimedia about once again doing subtitle readings for the Children's Film Festival this year.
I was really glad to hear from her, as I had been getting nearly every incarnation of their print media advertising in the mail this past week or so, but no call about doing the readings. I managed to snag several on the weekends, as by having a day job, I can't necessarily make all the weekday programs, natch.
I am heading into heavy-duty rehearsals this week that won't let up until we open the play at the beginning of November, so I am not sure what I was thinking by telling her I could read for the films she offered. Ah well. I get paid, it'll be scheduled time away from the sheer hell I am sure my apartment will turn into over the next fortnight, and I really do enjoy the actual job. I get to see a bunch of movies for free. I get to see the excitement of a bunch of kids and teens as they watch stuff from all over the globe.
Fun stuff, really.

Comma Splices -- handy tip of the day for those who can't seem to use a semicolon to save their lives, but like to pretend they're grammarians, anyhow.
There's no use in telling me I have terrible comma problems. I am sure I do. It's the spelling I get all cranky over.
