Getting Dumped

A few weeks ago, at my sister's college graduation weekend in Tennessee, I got THE dreaded phone call: I got dumped. And not by my boyfriend... by my agent. 

I had been playing phone tag with my theatrical agent from New York for about two weeks, and I had a sneaking suspicion that something was awry. Sure enough, my gut was right. He had called to tell me that he didn't see any reason to re-sign me for the coming year and gave me some b.s. version of the "it's not you, it's me" speech.  The conversation lasted about four minutes and 32 seconds at best. And then, Click. Just like that, I was an agent-less actress.
