an army of me

My frequently-mentioned friend Megan suggested that my current state of singledom was giving me the energy and verve of "ten Jennifer Dziuras!"

Yes, while all you people are dating, I am writing the Great American Novel ... first! (I am not actually writing a novel, but if I were, it would contain thinly-veiled references to all you fine people, your elan, your eloquence, your fine taste in blogs, and how snazzy you look in sport coats).

Today's excitement includes the following:
  • An interview with Good Morning America, which will be filming at the spelling bee finals on October 17th

  • Brunch with artiste Molly Crabapple, who is designing some Jenisfamous buttons to be distributed at future shows

  • An interview with Wireless Flash News

  • The ordering of Peeps t-shirts by readers of this blog

  • Receiving unsolicited fan art (at right)! Mr. John Leavitt designed a better cover for my CD, and by damn, I intend to use it (note the lacrosse trophy! Those who have heard "Seven Nights" know its true purpose).

  • Discovering that my ex-roommate Todd Zuniga, editor of Opium Magazine, will also be performing at the 215 Festival this weekend in Philadelphia, at which I will be performing with Neal Pollack, whose phone number I now have in my cellphone, an item which probably deserves its own bullet on this list

  • The finals tonight of the Carnival Comedy Challenge at the Improv! The competition is judged based on audience applause, so I don't expect to win the popularity contest, but bookers and agents will be present, and this morning I was up at the crack of dawn to go to Staples and get photo paper on which to print some headshots, which I did at two hours past the crack of dawn, along with copies of the Times article, thereby resulting in the creation of five rather lovely press kits, nicely packaged in teal folders because Staples was out of red, which made me think it would be completely ridiculous to match my press kits to my outfits, even if I have done so accidentally for the last two performances.
You can see me tonight at the Improv (318 W 53rd between 8th/9th Ave) at 8:30. I'll be wearing teal.

I love the fan art so much. It captures your essence, and you look so pretty and quirky pondering the objects mystifyingly swirling around you.

Very cool fan art. Much better than anyone drawing your ass. That, and people might get the wrong idea from a CD cover with your rendered ass on it.
