Monday, Monday

I'm all set up with Reel Talent, Inc. Suh-weet. Now the waiting game as usual. I have a book to keep me preoccupied. To proofread, that is. No leisure reading here.

Okay, so fun things today.

My friend Ginan said "I found a picture of you on the Internetz!"
Yeah, although I appreciate the flattery... I's no Meryl Streep. That school picture actually reminds me of my mom with my dad's hair... so yeah, I guess that's me. The second time I've been compared to Meryl Streep in 24 hours. Cuh-reepy.

Next! A Gay-Marriage Solution: End Marriage. I like it, but that's 'cause I'm a dirty liberal.

Lastly! I finished my first pair of child shoes.
Puh-retty sure they're not gonna fit, but at least I tried haha. I also have someone at Etsy making me a new shop banner as we speak. That thing is gonna be boiled peanuts. That's means awesome.

Friday's Violent Indifference


Some pics from this week. Tea Tree Oil and Charcoal Mask from CountryHeartGifts and a dude hat I made today in dark red and charcoal. Whatever. I'm so over my own hats, I don't even care anymore. It's a rollercoaster that never yields sales. I haven't sold anything since January. It's hard to stay positive and motivated and not get frustrated.

Anyway... KITTEHS!

Maybe I'll read tomorrow... I don't know. I've always wanted to re-read Dune and then continue on the with the un-ending volumes.

Something I've noticed about California: they don't use PVC pipes like in FL, so the water is exponentially colder. Due to this temperature difference, our toilet sweats. It's so humid in our apartment that even the toilet looks like a glass of lemonade in the summertime. Drippy bastards.

I'm gonna go take a shower and battle my forever oily face and smog-allergic skin. Yeah, it's been a disappointing day. Ya deal and ya move on. Boo-yah.

And Jared's making me pancakes for dinner. Rawr! Delicious monster!

P.S. Here's a link to the first blog I was ever featured in: Mixed Plate back in November.

1. "White Chocolate Dream Powder" from Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf.

Success!

I have an appointment to take new pictures and register with Reel Talent, Inc. Kelly Hunt was super nice and I think I've made a good choice. On Saturday, we're meeting in Silver Lake to take some more pichures. The roles of which will encompass:

*young mother
*nurse
*business professional
*high-school, college student
*nightclub-goer
*hiker
*cocktail party-goer

So, I'm sure I have things for about half of those, so I need to go shopping tomorrow --- something I've been in desperate need of doing since I've been here. Maybe H&M or something.

Hopefully I'll start working next week or the week after, worst-case scenario.

Oh, and I finally bought a vacuum cleaner! Yay!

It's cold. It's been raining. Eh. Jared, I, and one of our roommates are going to an improv comedy show tonight for $Free.99

Ew, pictures



Haaaaa. So the only way I'm going to get consistent work from Central Casting, is if I register with a calling service. Ugh, if it's not one thing, it's another. Here's to ... somethin'.

Sunday: I made coasters

I made coasters today 'cause rings on the glass tables are unacceptable.

I got a postcard from my friend Shannon yesterday. It's from Malta! Apparently there's lots of elderly English people there tanning the day away.

I also got my new wall decal for to be photog-ing my Etsy products. I is the excited. Unfortunately, I've never used wall decals, so I have no idea how to work 'em. I e-mailed the lady in Utah that made them for me for instructions.

Here's a picture of Flight of the Conchords:
