I too would like to unburden with perhaps an opposite (converse? infinitely
bound?) problem with regard to scenes.  I have for the last six months been
doing Petruchio wooing Kate.  Alone in my home. On the street walking to the
subway.  On the subway platform, on the subway, in my office, in the
elevator to my office, in line at the bank, in front of the bank teller,
yes, in the bathroom mirror, in my seat at the theater! - I confess it all.
No, not occasionally -pshaw - When I wake up in the morning, when I go to
bed - Every freeking day!  I don't even try anymore to cover it when I
realize people are looking at me.  I'm lost in the infiitely expanding
comedic insights I believe exist in the scene.  (I dimly recall a similar
more general, yet malarial, winedale syndrome suffered in my youth).  And,
yes, I am probably fooling myself!  People can laugh -ha-ha, poor Jackson! -
It's all be done! (yawn!) before! (again, yawn!)- exactly like this, I'm
sure (although, I've never seen it this way).  "I don't care!" (Tommy Lee
Jones - "The Fugitive")  I've lost all personal dignity, I'm lucky my wife
hasn't left me, my son, perhaps, well, he's a little worried I guess, maybe,
so I'm begging you each and every one of you - I'm an old man, for
godsakes! --please give me five minutes in the barn - accompanied for my
safety, fine, or Alone, I don't care anymore - I've got to get this MONSTER
out of my system!

Thank you for your time. I'll be quiet now.  Go about your business, folks,
nothing to see here...

-Jackson
