Monolog Audition For the New Sitcom: "desperation 101"

"I'll not hold onto scraps of paper love notes folded origami brain confetti from last year I'll not hold on, (for long) my dear I'll not hide secret dried up flowers slips of some things 'till tomorrow never sipping sweet fruition for it seems, my intuition proved me wrong again. I'll not remember your cologne or spray it on when you're not home and while I'm at it I'll forget just why I loved you then... and yet... I kind of wonder what you're thinking, if you need me, if you're sinking, Maybe if I called this moment it would save you from some torment? Maybe if I saw you daily sang our song on mix tapes, maybe... you would then remember love notes you would think on all you then wrote How you loved me 'till tomorrow, How we shared our joys and sorrow So, perhaps, it's all worth saving even when you're misbehaving Maybe we should just get married! Get a house, a bouncing baby Mortgage life, dear - call me crazy... as long as you just call me." Well...um... did I get the part?
