Liiiiiiike, Oh Em Geeee – You just booked another gig?!

Why, Yes. Yes I did.  I can’t believe I just booked another gig. This is 2, in such a short period of time. OH Thank You Acting Gods – shining down you little rays of opportunity, just enough hope to keep me trucking along in a business that makes absolutely no logical sense whatsoever.

At any rate, I can’t share the deets of the job but it’s seriously right up my alley. AND it is in NY, how fancy! Best part is it is the exact same day that O just got an appointment with talent agency in NY also! What great luck, stuff like this never works out for me.

This was even a self tape I shot in our brand spanking new home-studio.

It’s a work in progress but now that C is on board it will be so professional and awesome. I’m an artist, I don’t do measurements and critical/strategical thinking mumbo-jumbo. I CREATE. Just kidding. I just get so frustrated so fast when the stupid lights get hot and I have them facing the wrong way and couldn’t get the tripods to stay up right, and I actually blew the breaker a couple times. Ugh. Nightmare city.

This is all my moms gear, we just ordered all our video lighting off Amazon so hopefully it will be here soon. I just did another self-tape and O actually did a self tape too! I will post this up. Well I will post hers up.

2015 people

It’s that time again. Actually it’s seven days past that time – the time where you are supposed to set goals and find your inner hero and reach for the stars, blah blah blah. And since I am notoriously late, like every morning – it’s no surprise I am late to my goal setting.

But better late than never, here is a little inspiration via Dane Cook. He’s so smart.

I sometimes feel very “techy”. I am usually good at uploading, downloading and generally figuring things out technically but sometimes I just want to chuck this computer off the deck and watch it smash into an infinite amount of uselessness. Because right now it is so useless. I know it’s probably user error but I am trying to download this video from Gmail and upload it to my fun new Youtube account and it’s taking umpteen million years to download because it’s so large.

Ugh. I will figure this out but it is making me crazy in the interim. I get so frustrated and then one thing leads to another and it makes me remember I hate winter and wish I could be sitting by the pool right now.

and yes those are my feet.

cards against humanity

Hangin’ with the fam Christmas eve is always fun. We are a pretty candid and sarcastic bunch so the laughs usually keep rolling all night long.

This year we played Cards against Humanity and I pretty much thought I was going to be sore the next day from laughing so hard. I will never be certain who thought of the answers on these cards but they are twisted. And they have a weird obsession with Harry Potter and butt holes. If your family is relatively open and you don’t have any medium age children around this game rocks.

I didn’t have any photos from this evening but here are a pair of clips of C and one of my brothers, striking similarly ridonculous poses.

O.Bull_headshot

Can’t believe this kid is 4. Everyone says Christmas babies get screwed and maybe later in life a birthday near Christmas will suck but for now I am convinced we are doing a pretty good job spoiling her – especially because she woke up and said “It’s my birthday again???”. hmmm

She’s all girl, twirly dresses, Barbie’s, my little ponies and make-up. She’s recently into acting and selfie’s, I might be in trouble…

Love her so so much! My little princess.

waverly

We took Wave to her first audition. It ended up not being her thing but that’s ok. She used to be so outgoing but recently she is going through this shyness phase. Maybe we will try again in a few months if something comes up but for now she’s not interested in the lime light, at least the public one.

that’s a wrap

Just wrapped the two days of Oakley’s first commercial. It’s going to be so cool! She’s already turned diva, asking why there were no pocket warmers in her coat pockets while we walked across the mall parking lot. Seriously!

She walked in and immediately won everyone’s hearts. Her happy, bubbly personality is infectious.

She has the guys helping her climb the rock wall the minute we walked in the door.

She was SO EXCITED to see wardrobe.

Lots of hurry up and wait between sets. We brought lots of entertainment for Oakley to do while waiting around; preschool workbooks, coloring books, my little ponies and we stopped at Walgreen’s and got one of those crazy cute stuffed animals with the ultra huge eyeballs. That pink owl is still a favorite in our house right now.

Super cute cowgirl boots we both loved as soon as we saw them! She sings “These boots are made for walkin’…” everytime she wears them now. I saw the same boots at Target and had to buy them for Oakley to add to her personal wardrobe collection.

And some much needed R&R after a busy 2 days! She was a rockstar!!!! Look for her YMCA commercial starting New Year’s Day.
