Well, whew. The final batch of truffles for shipping out, and for tomorrow's wedding, are done. DONE. I think I'm finally sick of chocolate. (It was trying to be all fancy and give the white chocolates a hard outer shell of dark that did me in. Fork dipping, my sweet...)

In other news, I'm reading the script of "Chicken Heart", which [livejournal.com profile] audioboy is going to be directing as a live radio play for a fundraiser in October. Now see, even the title is satisfying. This isn't any ol' "Night of the Iguana" or "American Buffalo" where you might excitedly buy a ticket looking forward to the rampaging lizard or bison, and then be heartbroken at the total lack of a stampede. No no, this play doesn't use a chicken heart as a symbol of middle-class alienation; if you go in hoping to see (well, hear) a chicken heart, then by god you're going to get your money's worth.

The main scientist is German, which means I've been reading the whole thing imagining [livejournal.com profile] chalkhorsegirl doing it in her Matilda accent. Which just makes it that much better.

Lessee...what else...I just realized with a little horror that the mental image I have for the Changeling character I'm creating is in fact Junior Soprano. I need pirate shoes. And while I was at the arts & crafts store in their bridal section I found a tiny parasol that I think I'm going to need to build either my halloween costume or a clown act around. Maybe both.

And.....scene.

I'm reading the script of "Chicken Heart",

All I can think of is Bill Cosby's routine about the Chicken Heart that ate New York City...

Yeah, me too. "The Chicken Heart escaped from the lab. TOOMTOOM TOOMTOOM."

This *is* in fact the radio script that Bill Cosby was talking about!

I am VERY glad you are busy and it looks like I'll be at Pirate Faire. Ironic since I'm the one person on the planet who doesn't really get off on them.
*sigh*
And you didn't escape my outline BWAHAHAHAHAHA!
