He has such a tired face. Nervous. Interesting.

And tonight, for the end of my birthday week, derspatchel took me to the Apollinaire Theatre Company's Uncle Vanya, where Ron Lacey was a magnificent Astrov and I remembered again that nothing good ever happens to characters named Sonya in Russian literature, but since I have to finish my Arisia signup tonight, this is not a review. That said: I am for once mentioning a play before the night before it closes, meaning it might be possible for other people to get tickets. If you live in the Boston area, you should!

(Their Vanya is the same actor I saw as Angelo in the Publick Theatre's Measure for Measure in 1999—Diego Arciniegas—and with no disrespect to anyone in the Anarchist Society of Shakespeareans, I still remember him. He's a good Vanya. I just wish I'd been faster covering my ears in Act III. This is still not a review.)

I had all but forgot that I sent Arisia's programming committee an email slightly earlier in the year expressing interest in participation for 2013; is this the same thing as signing up?

If you didn't then receive an invitation to their online signup, no. Bah. Will you still be attending?

Right *sigh* I'd spoken to the relevant individuals and had been told to send an email to programming (not long after Arisia 2012, in fact), so that's exactly what I did. I'm never sure whether it's all just absent-mindedness/everything's-too-hectic on the part of the parties who give me instructions, or if I'll just never get the hang of what's required for people to take my interest in getting involved seriously.

(...sorry. Needed to vent, I think, after all the trouble I went to as far as expressing interest and, you know, generally doing what I was told to do *headdesk*)

No worries: that sucks. It may still be worth e-mailing programming and asking whether you should be looking now at becoming a program participant for Arisia 2014, just to make the point.
