Be spontaneous and reap the benefits. The UNKNOWN is where all the yummy stuff lies..
i've got a Logan snuggled, belly up, next to me while i'm reading the next script i'll be working on - in a incense filled Wonderland in the hills of Hollywood.
color me grateful. call me blessed.

3 weeks into this PM endeavor, and here's what i got so far:
1 $60 MM feature next spring
1 $30 MM in NC between now and the end of the year
word from our lead, "any project that I work on from now on, I want you two on it." - that'd be nicole and i. (lol. we'll see how far this one pans out)
2 independent projects - 1 involving modified bmx bikes, war paint and a Mad Max style paintball course. the other, a new dead person every episode
1 music video
long hours and drama-bombs aside, i'd say this project turned out to be quite successful all around. a paycheck for now, a reference for later. basic networking 101 - it's what you do when you don't have a hand to hold.
i've definitely had the time to get pretty damn close to some people on set, as well as most of our regular cast. i know we'll be keeping in touch post wrap. shit, this is nicole's first feature, and as far as i'm concerned, she's my new go-to for hair/makeup assist. if anything, i'm glad we got our time to hang out again, we've been rather lazy about getting together otherwise.
i've discovered a new appreciation for under eye baggage. actually, i'm not sure how much i appreciate it, so much as they're the first thing i cover for everyone these days. they're hard to miss when you've been working 5pm to 7am every day for the past week. my diet's fuct, too. i'm never quite as hungry for a full on dinner at midnight or 1 in the morning, and it's really the only meal that's served to us. i don't hang out at the crafty table between takes, so i'm not snacking either. and as soon as i get home, i'm out. sleepin before the sun moves over my skylight. the result - none of my pants fit me well, and i've also noticed slight bend in my nail bed, indicating a possible vitamin deficiency - someone needs a multi-vi stat!
sooo - i've taken a beating on this one, but it's not like i wont miss it when it's gone.
hence the networking, and such. oh well. 2pm, good morning. time to get this ass movin.
all N words aside, Dr. Dre is, like, the godfather of rap:
forget about the faces, recognize the force
till then i'm recording the crash speeds of raindrops on the skylight above my bed. at times the beating disappears, and that's when i know - someone's watching.
my brain needs rest more than my body - i may abuse a benadryl.
...tired as shit.
but happenings are happening, and they're here to happen to me fshur.
took on a project that is panning out to be quite the adventure, if i must say. word has come to b/w, and has hit the desks of union officials. (will i go 706??) and shits' about to get REAL. like, real REAL.
idk, i'm always down for the ride.
in the end i'm plannin a match between myself and DDP. i'm hopin to get takin out by the diamond cutter. ... what??
a 9mm miracle happened today. seems small, perhaps. but size is relative.
often mistaken for something called magic
