So we have been running around like crazy since this past weekend - working alot and hangin with Bree's Family, who has been in town.
Monday - I had lunch with the Kurzer's, who were in town while they were out on a cruise with Royal Carrabien Cruise Lines. We had lunch at my DG, since they were downtown, taking the train back to Chicago on Monday. And then the fun began hangin with Bree's Family - Her Mom and Dad, and brother and sis (Brian and Steph) all came out. When I got home, they were hanging out at our place and then we made our way back downtown for dinner at our DG! A good time was had by all - Steph got to meet Paul (our "trying to be a model" who does take-out - he is 20 and she is 15 1/2) and even got a picture of him to take back and show to all of her friends (ahh... to be 15 again... on second thought, being 15 sucked! Forgot...moving on)
Tuesday: I worked in the morning and a series of small events lead to a not so fun day - including, but not limited to, rain, walking and the train, being short money at work, missing my train home, getting off at the wrong stop, slamming my fingure in my dresser, and the list goes on... =) I am totally fine now, but man, it was sure hard to shake that day - but being cold, wet and angry will kind of make that hard...
Tuesday night we went out to The Grill off Rodeo, which was wonderful - dinner was half taken care of for us by Aurther, who is my boss' boss, and a wonderful man and friend of mine and Bree's (he runs The Grill) The family seemed to love and and then we went back to the hotel, and later that night, Bree and I took Steph to see "Stay Alive" - what a bore-fest. Steph (being that she is 15 1/2) was very scared of the movie, and I on the other hand, didn't like it at all... Bree thought it was okay.
Yesterday: Universal Studios Theme Park with the fam! What a blast - Brian didn't dig the Van Helsing Haunted House, but the ride were cool - The Mummy was great, and the Studio Tour was interesting... got to see a few people working, though they didn't really take us thru much of the real studio - but still, it was something fun! And that night, Bree and I had rehearsal for "The LA Weekly Loves Us" and then after rehearsal we went with the family to see "Failure To Launch" - which was really a fun movie, tho I think both leads are a tad bit old to be making these kinds of movies.. but that is just me.
Today I have to work, and I also have an audition for "Dr. Pepper". I found out the Mary is being looked at by Liongate and Artisian films - both of which are HUGE Deals for us! More money - and big chance to make another movie! I cannot wait to find out what happens! And I have a meeting with a manager next week - which is going to be cool. A friend of mine from work hooked me up with her manager, and she really seem interested in meeting with me, and my buddy from work has been going out for all kinds of GREAT stuff lately.
Besides these things, just working and moving forward - trying to live it one day at a time, and love what I am doing - here are some cool pictures from Seaworld last weekend and Universal yesterday!
Love and miss you ya!
