The Kabuki Play 3

Kabuki is a traditional form of Japanese theater that portrays the lives of people who lived during the Edo period (1600-1868). While it's subject matter is primarily historical, Kabuki's extraordinary spectacles of color and sound through acting, dancing and music still symbolize contemporary life.

About Me

Name:

HISTORY OF "THE KABUKI PLAY"

  • The original "Kabuki Play" writings exposed a brash inner monologue as I struggled through the trials and tribulations as a college student. Broken friendships, irritating dorm-mates and akward trips home between semesters kicked off the first "Kabuki Play" series. However, college didn't last forever and "the real world" was right around the corner with drama ten fold.
  • "The Kabuki Play 2," a darker and more disturbing account, told the unsettling story about my first job after graduating from college, it being one of the biggest trainwrecks in the history of "The Kabuki Play." After being caught in the middle of 10 consecutive firings in less than two years and being stuck with four pisspoor bosses, I decided that I'd had enough. So, I quit my job and cut off all the negativity in my life, and moved two hours away from home to start my life over.
  • With a new job, my own apartment and a new beginning, "The Kabuki Play 3" picks up where the second series left off and revisits my inner monologue as I try to leave the past behind me and spread my wings.

Operation: Back on Up

2005… what a fucking year! Let’s review, shall we?
* It’s been interesting working for the slimiest, most evil-doing, condescending, 24 karat bitch-in-the-world Barbara Brooks. I’ve witnessed 3 firings, tears, screaming, and agony under her direction. Good riddens to that BITCH.
* Car troubles from January to August… undiagnosed stalling, trunk leaks and a freaky car alarm problem.
* Annoying coworkers who know how to push every single on of my Goddamn buttons.
* Lavish parties in the city with half-naked underwear models.
* Friends who don’t act like friends.
* The new boss who has the IQ of a toaster.
* Being told I’m not good enough by upper management. What a fuckin’ world I live in!! :)
* The ups and downs of living at home—no privacy, nosey parents, the death of my cat, Meiji, and the birth of the new one, Hiro.

With my fairly successful 2005 New Years resolution, “Don’t Givva Fuck,” I’ve established the new “Back on Up” campaign for 2006. “Back on Up” means exactly what it reads—stop, back up and turn around.

What does that mean for me?

People wanna come to work late and leave early, recklessly spend thousands of dollars and not do their jobs, I’m gonna BACK ON UP because it’s not my business.

People wanna disappear for 6 months and then try to talk to me, I’m gonna BACK ON UP because that’s their problem.

People wanna piss and moan, complain and whine, but ignore my advice and not do anything to help themselves, I’m gonna BACK ON UP… have your pity party by yourself.
You can get drunk and act all crazy on your own.
Go to the movies without me.
Spread my business all over town.
Talk to me only when you want something.
Don’t answer my phone calls.
Say I’m not working hard enough.
Say you can’t afford to pay Manji Designs.

Whatever, I’m not sticking around to watch you look like an idiot!

Happy New Year!
