What with being sick, I fell into a hole and was not happy about it.

You know how "they" say that the covid lockdowns made ten years of changes happen at once?

I have been a hermit, and I'm avoiding people, right?

Well, I DON'T like that. The internet is not what it used to be. I want to breat the same air as people.

...but people have been tough..

I decided to get tougher and reach out to people.

I was invited to lunch with some old friends. We had been to improv classes together. So we met and were saying "how long has it been..?"

the internet is good for some things. I looked back on our messages, and the last time we were together was November 2021.

More than a year. I kinda forced the issue I was hungry for at the time, and we read my favorite shakespeare play.

we were actors, right?

side note: actors in the Los Angeles shadow of Hollywood are tricky. I LOVE literature. Actors usually know a few lines of shakespear and therefore can fake being smart.

They are sadly very seldom smart and edjumacated

THe skakespeare thing didn't have the depth I was hopiing for.

My two lunch buddies said that would be fun to do again.

Maybe it could be a song share? What songs? What acts of plays do we love?

How do I remake it to fit the right crowd?

What do you think, my locals people?
