Wow, what a fun filled week this will be. A lot of cool stuff in store and I am very excited – extremely enthusiastic, and totally inspired about it all!
Good times!

TOMORROW EVENING I HAVE A CALLBACK FOR A NATIONAL COMMMERCIAL!!
Oh man, I am SOOOO excited about this!! Ahhhhhh!!!
Honestly, it is kind of the opportunity of a lifetime for me, in so many ways.
Especially as an actor, because it is SAG.. so that means I will FINALLY be able to join the union – which will definitely help me in getting an agent – which will be totally awesome. Then at least I will be able to put my 20 year acting hobby to the test.
Needless to say, I am just so excited to have this opportunity right now in my life. I am so grateful.. and honestly, even though it is just a callback right now.. Just the simple fact that this casting company is providing this sort of chance for me.. this kind of opportunity.. I am just so so grateful right now for that. It’s just pretty cool… and I truly/totally appreciate it from the deepest depths of my heart.

In other news.. lol… after the callback I gotta hop in my car and head on over to the 2nd production meeting for a webseries that is in development.. This isn’t mine.. and this isn’t the one that I acted in last week.. this is the other one.. I’m pretty excited about this one.
I think I am going to pull out a script that I wrote for the sketch comedy group I was in when I lived in Florida.
For 2 1/2 years I performed at all the local improvs (and also at LACF in LA) with a local sketch comedy group in Florida. It was fun. We would rehearse once a week and after a few months was when we got into the swing of doing a bunch of shows. It was cool. Anyway, I wrote a sketch for the group, that of course I starred in. Hey, I wanted to be the star in something! :) LOL Anyway, the audiences really loved it. I always got a huge roar of laughter and people really seemed to enjoy the character I created for myself. There were several times after the show when people would come up to me and kid with me about it.
So, I have it here in my filing cabinet. Sitting in a folder somewhere.
I think I am going to bring it out tomorrow night and see what the director thinks and if he is interested in incorporating it into the series.
Or maybe I will print a new one out. It has got to be on my computer or on a harddrive somewhere.

Saturday is my premiere on the Pasadena Local Access Television.
I think I’ve blogged about it before and it was supposed to take place a couple of weeks ago. That was a mix up. It is happening on Saturday.
I will be performing my new rap song and doing some dancing. I’m looking forward to it – It will be fun.
Also, I think it is going to be broadcasting online. I need to email the lady and find out where exactly, so I can have all my peeps tune in.

Well, I guess that is all the updates for now.
I’m really excited about everything. I’m grateful.. and I’m happy.
I think that everything is going to turn out good.. and I’m looking forward to putting up some more fun stuff online.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. That other webseries, that one that we started shooting last week… There is a website (in case you don’t know).. that I broadcast live from.. usually from my bedroom.. I usually just pretty much open up my webcams, hang out, shoot the shit, and listen to some music. That’s about it really. Well, I am in communication with one of the people that work for the site.. thanks to a good old friend of mine.. and it looks as if I will be broadcasting a live show on there, which will be featured on the front page.
Basically, it will be a behind-the-scenes sorta thing. This new webseries, the director/producers have a very interesting vision for it.. which I am really excited about. There is going to be some cool developments with that.
But anyway, in the meantime what I will be doing is broadcasting.. on that website.. a LIVE “behind-the-scenes from Hollywood” sort of thing.
Because technically, that’s exactly what it is. It would give you a glimpse of our shoot… you can watch it as we tape/rehearse it… and.. it is shot right in the heart of Hollywood.. and it will be broadcast live on the internet.. so yeah, it is LIVE Behind the Scenes from Hollywood. LOL
But because it’s MY room – it is going to be completely raw and real. Just the way I like things to be.

So yeah, that’s about all for now. I’ll keep ya’ll posted with new developments as I get them.. huhuh that sounds very newscasterish doesn’t it?
But yeah I will keep you all abreast. uhuhuh that sounds very Beavis and Butthead.
Anyway, it has been a very busy week for me. I’m slightly delirious :)
Very happy. Very grateful. Very excited. Good stuff!

Thank you for reading!! I hope you likey!! :)

Peace, Love, Inspiration,
