I went to the gym today, and almost walked in but then realized I didn't bring my socks with me. So I turned back and went home, regretful that I didn't just stop at Rite-aid and get a pair, and then head straight back to the gym. It's almost like I look for the slightest reasons not to do things I know I'm supposed to.
My head is too cluttered today. I think I might go on a bike ride before the sun sets. I live close to the Chandler Bike path, which is a stretch that runs through Burbank and North Hollywood. It's a bike path that was formerly a rail road, that has been covered in smooth concrete. It's one of my favorite things about living here. It took me a while, but I really love where I live now. A change up from the lap of luxury in the Hollywood Hills, but it was just too tough to afford. I had to demote my living to North Hollywood. Uneasy about it at first, it did take a while to get used to. There are crazy people walking around here and gangsters, and lots of cops 'trolling around, lots of liquor stores... But you know what? There's so much more character here. This city is alive! It has a heart beat. I just got some Mexican candy from the store before I came home. Mango Con Chile it's called. It's covered in Tamarindo powder and sugar. A flavor I haven't tasted since I lived in Hollywood as a kid. It took me back for a second. I used to buy it from the ice cream man when I was nine, living at Franklin and Winona. That's boardering Los Feliz and Hollywood, if are familiar with Los Angeles...
....wait, who am I talking to? Sometimes in these blogs I write to myself as though I'm writing in my diary, and just to write, and then other times I write to who ever may be reading it. For example, I just explained how I moved from the Hollywood Hills to North Hollywood, but... I know that already, because I was there. There wasn't really a need to explain that to myself. I guess I must be informing whoever might be reading this.
I went to an audition today. I was an evil woman who was the leader of this mutant race, called "Neo Humans". It was set in the future. I practiced alot before I got there, and got my lines down pretty well. I thought I played it pretty intensely, but who knows. I might have sucked, and not realized it. I was trying to play it like the evil queen in the mini series "Tin Man" that was on the Sci-Fi channel a few months ago. The series was terrible. A total disappointment, after waiting so long for it to debut. For as good as the concept was (recreating the old tale of The Wizard of Oz) it could have been better. Anyhow, I always go to castings on the part of "The evil villan". It must be my face. Must look mean or something. Maybe it's my eyebrows.
....so... I guess that's all. Goodbye me, or you, or whoever I'm writing this blog for....
