The Birthday Girl

Today is my birthday- 33 years and counting.

First and foremost, I have a camping report to detail... Secondly, I have birthday extravaganzanessism to share. That's right, extravagenessismismism.

But that will come tomorrow. Today has been way too much for me. I can't remember ever having a birthday with such beautiful weather (sunny, 80 F, blue skies yielding to a warm evening...) and so many e-mails and phone calls to wish me a happy birthday. Thank you, everyone! And thank you, Facebook, for being my connection to everyone in the cyber world.

Good nite, I'll get you caught up tomorrow...

Here comes summer...

I've been absolutely buried in work- yet I love what I do so it's kinda like drowning in chocolate. My dark comedy has taken a very dramatic turn, the web series on working on is gaining momentum, the author I'm co-writing the adaptation with is really on track and going awesome... and I've been back in the casting office more which I love- I'm a people person and love getting to chat with the actors as they come and go.

Our trip to western land was amazing- granted we didn't get all the interviews we wanted (mainly because I had limited- that means "no" internet access) but it worked out.

In no particular order here are a few photos from the trip. They include me and the turtle I saved from the highway that was about to become a pancake via semi-truck and me and a yellow bellied marmot...




Brett did finish his cowboy movie- for the time being... It's a short as of now buy still fun and effective. He also made a little movie about making a sandwich last night. Here they are:



And The Cowboy Way...

Last but not least here's my new haircut. I cut off ten inches and donated it...



On a side note, I'm still eating vegetarian-style. I haven't tried the full vegan diet yet only because I'm still exploring all my food options. And I love cheese too much! I've been caffeine-free just as long and had my first cup of (decaf) coffee today- I definitely miss the taste, that's for sure.

The only other thing I'm thinking about is applying to NBC's writer's program but the deadline is the end of the month and I'd need a spec script to submit and I don't have anything handy. I'd really have to get my butt in gear to pursue that one but I'm game... the worst that can happen is get rejected.
