Today is the big day!


The opening of the Chicago Horror Film Festival (I wish I was home to check this out!) Resurrection Mary has been everwhere for this festival - We were featured on Fangoria's website (The World's Largest Horror Mag) and we were in the Tempo section of the Chicago Trib yesterday (Thank you Lou!)

So get out to the festival - see the movie, support and vote for it to be your favorite - your winner for Best Horror Feature Film! There is some great behind the scene's buzz about it, mayn groups (some REALLY big ones) want to buy it and all are waiting to see what happens this weekend! So go now! Check it out!

Other than that - things here are movin along - I had a bunch of really great auditions this past week, and Bree had a few as well - plus a table read for a movie. She worked on this east coast commercial and now the director is working on a film, called her in to read and she gave a WONDERFUL reading, the casting people were there and even came up to her afterward and said what a great job she did! So Congrats out to her.

Still working on the Theatrical Agent, Bree and I got to meet Ginger Lawrence of House of Representatives on Monday and that went great - following up with her this week and hoping to hear back soon! =)

Plus I joined a group called "The Actor's Network" which is turning out to be one of the best things I have done in LA yet - I have just scratched the surface of what this place offers to me, but all ready they have turn into a wonderful tool that I am benifiting from!

So that is all for now - check out the Festival - vote often for Mary so we can win and sell this bad boy! And Maybe it will even play in the theatre again! Who Knows! Till then!

Best Fishes,
J.

You blink...

And it seeems like a whole month has gone by. Well, the main reason that I haven't been on here is because of my recent birthday gift - my new Xbox 360 on the new Elder Scrolls Game - which is the COOLEST role-playing game that I have ever gotten to play - but now that I am going to let the Xbox go on va-kay because of the work-out it has been getting since April 5th, I have time to come back online and fill in what has been going on in my life BESIDES video games - and you know what, there has been things going on!

For starters - thank you to everyone who drop a Happy Birthday day email, txt, phone call, card in the mail with money, or post on my blog or myspace account! Thank you so much, it means the world to me. My birthday was a little mellow, because money is tight (can you say XBOX! =P) ...no... mellow, because Bree hurt her foot and so we hung out around the house, which was nice. We got to spend some much needed me and her time, and it was great! I got lots of cool stuff - sporting my new GL hat while I write this, and my new Punisher shirt is in the wash!

Nick and I have gone back to hitting the gym... well, i have started going on a regular, instead of irreg, and Nick has gotten back into working out and eating! Good for him! I have an important meeting right after I come back from Paul's wedding - it is with a personal manager and I want to be Fight Club by that time - so we are working overtime on working out and I am droping things from my diet left and right. Good things to come on that!

Then there is the Groudlings - Bree started last week and is going again tonight - more word on that soon - but so far, she loves it!

A bunch of auditions this past few weeks - Visa, "Weeds" Promo, Dr. Pepper, and others... haven't heard back from them, but hey, I am getting in some doors, which is better than what I was doing a month ago... =)

Rehearsal for "The LA Weekly Loves Us" is going good so far - working hard on that and I should have stuff with the set building up and running by the middle of next week - so things are moving forward with that.

Tonight, I have to work at the DG and then I am going to be heading home to get to work on some acting stuff. I am in the process of putting together a shop on my website... I have to do some work and send it out to my Dad in the next day or two with some layouts for the site... Got the new cut of the Mary, watched it, and thought it was better than the first time that I saw it. The Festival is soon - so get out and support it, vote and win us some awards! Big money, no wammies!

OHHH! And Tuesday night, Bree, Nick, Nikki and I went to see the Doggers play the Cubs! It was super cool! According to Bree, I almost got us killed when I got into a heckling contest with a car full of fat Dogger fans! And then we got Boo'd at a ton from Dogger fans when we got into the park! They didn't dig on my Foam Cub Claw - But you know what I have to saw about that!? GO CUBS! ...i would say Cubs win... but they lost that night - It was a blast though - Dogs and Beer, Cubs and my favorite lady by my side (no not Nick, I am talking about Bree!) So all and all, a good night!

SO - I must get ready for work and eat... just go back from jogging and I need to get cleaned up!

Love and Best Fishes!
