Long

This has the potential to be a VERY long and boring week.

Shooting for the Pilot I'm a PA for ends today. Yay! It was supposed to be my last day too, but it looks like I'll be here for a couple more day. I'm really hoping that it won't be for the entire week, but hey, moolah is moolah. And it should be fairly smooth sailing from here on out. Not too many more things to copy. No more sides, call sheets, or scripts left to copy. Basically we'll be packing up stuff and returning equipment. I'm guessing that a lot of the equipment will be returned by the transpo guys (whoever the hell they are) and we won't be needed more than a couple of days. There won't be any more new people to fill out paperwork and file, not really any more time cards after today and there won't be new clothes to schlup around. Basically, I'm not sure what they'd need more than one of us (Ryan) for after Wednesday at the latest.

The only thing I'm sad about is that there is a 99% probability that I won't make it to fighter practice tonight. :( I probably won't even make it to Coral's afterward.

In other news, I'm looking for open mic nights at comedy clubs. Why? Because I've decided that I want to give stand-up a try. Why? 'cuz I've always thought I was funny.

But mainly its a way to gain some exposure, try every path, and just cover my bases. Who knows? Maybe I'll be really good at it. Maybe not. Maybe it will open that door a little wider and take the pressure off of my foot. Maybe not. My advantage would be that I haven't spent my life wanting to be comedian when I grow up. I adore Gilda Radner, Jane Curtain, and Madeline Kahn, but I never gave a thought to actually trying comedy. But I'm here. I'll be out of a job by the end of the week, and I like to make people laugh.

I'm nothing if not random in a very predictable way.
