howdy howdy -
i hope people are reading these things - i guess i'll have to put more personal things. number 1 - i hate living with eric herron, he's obnoxious, boring, messey, etc... ok i'm just kidding - he's even working on the messey part. we have a lot of fun, i'm sure his girlfriend gets a little jelous that i get to spend so much time with him. love ya anna. yesterday we pushed each other down the hall in my desk chair, eric forgot to apply the breaks and hit the wall pretty hard, he said he didn't want carpet burn on his feet. he's ok. we've also gotten pretty hard core about the tv series LOST. we get to watch it commercial free and anytime we want because eric downloaded it. yesterday we watched four episodes. it's pretty intense. we also worked out yesterday, the apartments have a small workout room, so we thought we'd use it. maybe you'll be able to see a difference in late August.
on another note eric and I worked on a full length film yesterday morning. man was this a lesson learned. we woke up at 5:30 am because crew call was at 7 am in Long Beach. we drove up and i knew it was a smaller type film then what i've previously worked on, but it doesn't mean we still can't learn a thing or two. they had told us it was a spoof on reality television called Zombie TV. we went in and everything seemed fine, we immediatly started working. like an hour or two later we began filming. ok, first i knew this film was a piece of crap when i saw the make up on one of the zombies; it looked like a second grade play. white make up with red lines and the gaffer even had some green light on them. horrible. i began reading the script and saw that it had some nudity in it. i looked over at eric and motioned for him to read it. when the filming began, a scene of two zombies were in an argument. THEY SAID "ARGG" TO EARCH OTHER. yes people the writer had the zombies "argging" at one another - not in english. STUPID STUPID STUPID. i knew that i didn't want my name on the credits of something like this. we worked until lunch. eric ran the fog machine and i boomed. we did meet some cool people, the black guy and his dad (chef), it just wasn't the place for us. so we ate the free lunch and told the guy that we had prior engagement and had to leave. at least we got something out of it. eric really wanted to stay for the strip scene, but i was there to help him from falling. jk just glad they didn't shoot any stuff like that yesterday morning. so we came back to the apartment and applied for jobs once again. eric got a PA job for a film called "the wager" it's based on a christian author's book, so it should be good and he gets $50 bucks a day, it doesn't start until late july, i think. we also made tacos last night, i felt like that would help us fit in with the surroundings.
here are some pics i've taken.
one of our apartment from outside, i believe madonna was playing at the staples center this night. the center looked really cool, lights everywhere and helicopters all over. THERE ARE A LOT OF HELICOPTERS IN THIS CITY! a lot
here is a pic from this cafe thing we went to the other night. Aj Santos from Florence was in town and we hung out with him. we went to his cousins soroity thing. we were the only white people there, but it was cool. it was a phillipino sorority.
so we went to the grocery store after the cafe thing. this place is right by our apartment. everything was in spanish. we were getting some ground beef and we saw these wonderful cow legs below. we got two.
we're goin to the carson daly show tonight and then bible study.

you should go to trader joes--its probably the best grocery store ever with things written in english and full of normal but healthy and environmentally friendly food like bread, milk, eggs, etc. i love trader joes!!!

I am jealous of you spending so much time with my boyfriend. Just stop cuddling so much in the loft bed, k? jk. But hopefully I'll get to come out there soon. It'll be just like Spring Break, but not in Pasadena. And not driving around in a sweet PT Cruiser.
PS- Why did it delete the first time? I dont know.
tanya - i'm tellin you, the greatest way to watch it is without the commercials and the ability to watch episodes whenever you want...hope all is well
