OK, I did a decent job at the audition. There's a chance this won't just be thrown on the pile of unsuccessful commercial auditions. I can do this. But then I think why should it stand out from the other 200 young bucks they read for this part. It's a guy in the middle of nowhere, in the South or Midwest, who tries a deli sandwich and then strikes oil. That could be me. My performance was commendable. Of course, the last time I felt good about an audition, not only did I not get a callback, but my cousin, Brian, shows up in the commercial. Not that I begrudge him getting the spot or anything, but if you have met him, you know he's God's latest and greatest entry in the "Big, Tall Doofus" category. So who knows what they're looking for? Me? Not usually.
