My self-summary
I just realized today(August 28, 2008) that I do not have my name in my profile. My name is Doug. I am pleased to meet you.

I am an actor with a BFA in Theatre from the University of Memphis. I have many friends and few enemies. My nature as a hippie causes me to love everyone, and in turn I am loved back, most of the time. My time is usually taken up by acting, rehearsal, my friends, my job and mask-making.

I am interested in anything people know very little about. I am one of those guys that appears smart because of all the obscure knowledge I have, but in actuality I just like studying obscure things. I am enough of a nerd to like the random article button on Wikipedia.

I would like to think that I am more interesting than the average person, but that doesn't mean that I am. However, I find myself extraordinarily fascinating and if you give me the time you will probably think of me as (at the very least) amusing.

I once spent a semester in Arezzo, Italy studying commedia dell'arte, character mask, mime, clown and philosophy.

Today (August 8, 2009) I somehow talked my girlfriend tadzia into joining OKCupid. She is a great person and you should say hi. However, she rarely logs in anymore because of the number of guys that send her rude messages.

I like everybody in some way. Some people I just like more then others.

I am doing a show...somewhere. It seems that I always am.

I've lived in eight towns and cities. That's not enough.

I tell bad jokes. Very bad.

I love to cook. I just don't always have the time.

I still daydream at least once a day.

I get deja vu a lot.

No one knows every on of my secrets.

I don't really know all my siblings. I am the middle child of seven kids.

I am quickly losing contact with many good friends.

I ramble.

I am attentive, forgiving, and theatrical.

What I’m doing with my life
The direction of my life has yet to be chosen. Or is etched in stone. Either way, I don't know about it. Hopefully, I will attend grad school for a Master's in acting or physical theatre. More recently I have started leaning towards physical theatre. I have also thought of going as far as getting a doctorate in dramaturgy, but I doubt I will do that(mostly because I had a professor named Dr. Doug and he is not the person I want to model myself after). I really want to spend several years acting wherever I am asked to be then settle down at a college or conservatory and teach.

I’m really good at
Acting and directing. I have been in or directed more shows then I can recall.

Mask-making and stilt-walking. I started making masks in 2007 and have since found that I love it and that I am really good at it. I currently make papier mache masks, and recently I learned how to make them in latex. I really want to get into leather though. I started stilt-walking when I was thirteen. I will work for commission to make you a mask, or I can send you pictures of designs that I have and you can buy one of those.

Magic: The Gathering particularly limited formats. I play competitively on a regular basis.

The first things people usually notice about me
I am usually well dressed. I prefer shirts with a collar, and I like to look nice. Of course, I still wear jeans and a t-shirt, but I take care not to wear a black belt with brown boots. I am one of the new generation of hippies, and the only man I know that will put on a skirt. Hey, sarongs are very comfortable.

A lot of times my first impression is made on stage. I have had people come up to me and ask me to do a voice that I did on stage or repeat an accent or line.

Favorite books, movies, shows, music, and food
(A) Terry Pratchett's Discworld books. Everything from Shakespeare to Tolkien. I love some Anton Chekhov, Sarah Ruhl, Arthur Miller, Tom Stoppard, Harold Pinter, John Grisham (especially his non-law books), Hemingway (I like his short stories most), Tennessee Williams, the list goes on. Hell, those were mostly playwrights.

(B)I love all movies. I am a sucker for the classics. Black and white does not mean classic. And I cried when they shot Ol' Yeller(So did you). Some movies I have seen recently that I liked include "Ordinary People" "China Syndrome" and "Atonement" I would love to hear your favorites. I need to catch up on film.

(C)I am very eclectic in the music department. I love classic rock, the British Invasion, alternative rock, blues, jazz, and many punk bands as influential as the bands in the Invasion. Folk such as Bob Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, Don McLean, Joan Baez, and Van Morrison. I am a big fan of protest songs and thus some protest bands including System of a Down, Woody Guthrie, the Beatles, the Who, and, again, Dylan. Musicians that revolutionized music are also important. The Rolling Stones and the Beatles. Johnny Cash, Elvis and Buddy Holly. Billie Holiday, Aretha Franklin, CCR, Bob Marley, Queen, The Doors, and many other groups of less importance and talent. I once got to see Jerry Lee Lewis and Aretha Franklin one after the other on the same stage.

(D)I like a bit of everything. Being in college my choices are usually limited to the beef or chicken ramen. However, if you let me into your kitchen I can almost guarantee you that you will be well fed. I make a mean chili, a braise that would make your grandma proud and a raspberry cheesecake that makes you want to get up and slap your momma (but I don't condone such behavior).

The six things I could never do without
A God. That I would have to explain in more detail then I can possibly fit here.

Friends and Family. I consider my friends an extension of my family. I will go to great lengths to aid anyone that I love.

A Stage. I perform for the love of entertainment, art, and knowledge. Without somewhere to perform, I would not be able to live as I wish.

An Audience. What is the use of playing in the largest theatre when no one can take in the message.

Love. I wrap my life in it

People. I love to make new friends and I often strike up conversations with complete strangers.

I spend a lot of time thinking about
Theology, acting, writing, friends, family. Where rent is coming from next month. Where I am going to grad school. Whether or not my masks can compete on the already established market. I could go on for ages. Sitting under my favorite magnolia tree and thinking is a past-time of mine.

On a typical Friday night I am
Rehearsing, performing, or attending a cast party. Sometimes all three. I dive into enough projects at once that I leave myself no room but to expand my abilities or fail miserably. I've yet to fail miserably. (Altough I don't always grow as much as I would like.)

The most private thing I’m willing to admit
I don't mind being on the receiving end of a pegging.

You should message me if
You need someone to talk to. I love a good long talk. If you live around Memphis and share one or some of my passions (see "things I spend time thinking about") I would love to talk with you. If you play Magic: the Gathering or want to sell your old cards I'm interested.
