Mercy Date was on TV! Twice! It was on Image Union: First Dates on Valentine's Day and the subsequent Sunday.

The following was on the station's website:

"Love is in the air, as Image Union celebrates Valentine s Day with a look at first dates. Michael Cera finds out that meeting a date's parents can be down right scary, in Darling, Darling. And in Mercy Date, the tables are turned as one woman finds out the truth behind her blind date set-up.
Now celebrating its 30th anniversary, Image Union keeps evolving – and expanding – to present new, innovative work from filmmakers in Chicago and around the globe. This season is shaping up to be one of our best ever, with everything from dark comedy to Oscar-winning animation, and first-time efforts from promising new filmmakers to award-winning shorts with plenty of star power. And Image Union is still the place for documentaries, experimental work, international films and the best local stuff we can find."

"Some of the most vibrant work in the field of independent video and filmmaking."

... not too shabby!

Also, I'm finally comfortable enough to announce that I've been cast in the Second City Music Improv House Ensemble. It's all singprov all the time. I'm Wayne Brady!

I had my fourth show on Sunday, and it's going great. I'm so impressed with every member of the cast! They're all talented and I haven't caught a whiff of ego. Whew. I think I may be OK at this stuff. Come see it.
