Hi everyone! Good old NY - I fell in the middle of the street by my theatre last night. I twisted one ankle, landed on my other knee, and scraped my hand, etc. Help I've fallen and I can't get up! LOL. anyway, I couldn't get up right away. DId anyone stop to see if I was ok? NO! At least the cabs were polite enough to drive around me and not run me over!! grrrrrr.

Ouch, you OK this morning?

I am sending you some Vicodin thoughts from Cali.

I hope you are doing OK today.

Thanks YWIW, I am fine. I did expect to wake up really stiff and in pain, but I most be more resilient than I thought. YAY! I'm thankful for that much!

Well, I woke up with a very sore back, so I guess it was a bi-coastal transferrance!

Did Tiff ever hear about that part? I am guessing she did not get it with the new title of the thread.

I don't think she got it, she would have mentioned it. She's kind of fed up with her current job, I sure hope she can get something else!

I kind of figured that.

I know she is looking to try and find something else.

I hope so as well.

You know. I think I am sore because my big fat cat keeps walking on me in the middle of the night!

Good morning ladies!

Nope, never heard about an audition for the movie. I have the option of being a show-call key PA on it, but somehow I think I'll just be bitter and cranky the whole time I'm there. ("Oh suuure. She's prettier than me, but I can act better than THAT!")

I'm getting discouraged with the PA thing. It's a good introductory job to learn set etiquette and a bit about the biz. I've been doing it on and off for a few years, but it's just that since I don't want to be a Locations Manager or an Assistant Director, it just seems like at this point, aside from making easy money and getting free food, I'm just wasting my time - it's not progressing me towards my future goals (in entertainment or law) whatsoever. I've been lucky because now that I'm getting called to work from people I've worked for before, I get more responsibility actually on set, especially on second unit (which we did yesterday), but so much of the work is being everyone's gofer, and it's the most thankless job aside from being an extra. (And at least by being an extra, you're getting paid as well - if not better - than the PAs and do nearly nothing.)

Sorry, that's my rant.

Jane, I'm glad you're okay, but that's terrible to hear! You'd think after the Kitty Genovese case, New Yorkers would be a bit more quick to change their reputation and help those in need! I was impressed when I was in New York - I slipping on the subway ramp and fell face first onto the ground, and two people actually stopped to make sure I was okay! But that's probably just because they were right behind me... Are you high on drugs now?

YWIW, if you train them, you can get your cats to walk on you in a way that would massage your back where and when you want it! They can be useful creatures, you know!

Hi Tiff-I should amend my post from before-I once fell a few years ago, and some people did ask me if I was ok. But then again, the other night when some girl was screaming for help, I was the only one who called the police. Oy, you gotta be lucky in life, can't depend on other people!

So Tiff, once you've identified the problem (your current job) that's the first step. Now you can start thinking about what to do next!

I think the cats have me trained.

And Tiff, now that you know what the issue is, what are you going to do about it?

Posted: 2/25/06 at 2:05pm

I just read my post and the phrasing's a bit weird. I wasn't implying that because I had someone ask if I was okay, you must've been high on drugs. I meant are you taking painkillers?

I'm contemplating one for my head.

Yup, identified the first step! This week I sent out a resume to the Icon movie (but I'm not expecting anything from it, really) and my cover letter and resume to that job as Associate Producer of Angels in America. Now to wait! And contemplate a future trip to NY where I'll be begging for menial work again!

How are you, Jane? Quiet day today? Idol results in 55 minutes and Camerangel (and her scores) are AWOL!

ETA: Hi, YWIW!

Oh, I didn't take the drug comment that way, don't be silly honfat!

Yeah, quiet day today. I don't have to work until the 6 pm show. I'm trying to get some stuff done in the apt today. I actually started my taxes, started trying to throw stuff out to prepare for the painting of my apt. in March. Listening to the Madonna cd, posting here, etc. AND-waiting for the Idol results!

Nah, I figured you didn't, but those sort of grammatical and phrasing F-ups irk me!

(One time I got into a slight pickle with a friend when I was ranting about someone and went, "God, I can't STAND as$holes! Oh, before I forget, is your mother feeling better now?") LOL!

Funny you should mention the Madonna CD - I'm listening to Hung Up as we speak!

FINALLY seeing Brokeback Mountain today. And so begins my quest to get caught up on all the Oscar movies before March 5!

Can't wait to hear what you think of BBM! I've seen all the films except Capote! Can't seem to get my hands on it.

I am seeing Transamerica tomorrow with a friend.

But, I have not seen many of the films nominated.

No news on any front BTW Tiff. Hong Kong - will find out in a few weeks. Friend - no word at all.

Off to run errands.

#1342

Posted: 2/25/06 at 2:27pm

When does Capote come out on rent?

YWIW, tell me how Transamerica is!! Even without seeing that or Walk The Line, I'm rooting for Felicity!

What's taking HK so long? Are they reconsidering the budget issue?

Posted: 2/25/06 at 2:31pm

My boss comes back from HK on the 5th. He then will look at whether they really need a lawyer or someone else. It comes down to a cost issue. And, if they change the parameters, whey they want me going for a month at a time, then I probably will say no. Going a month at a time and then coming home for a month or so, and then going back is not what I want to do. It is much more difficult than going for 8-10 months and coming home every few months for a week or so.

The whole thing really pisses me off.

I don't know when Capote comes out. I'm trying to borrow the dvd from my friend and it never seems to be there, someone has it and didn't return it.

Jane, so it's already out on DVD? Maybe I'll swing by Blockbuster today...

YWIW, yeah, going one month, coming back one month, going back...etc...just doesn't seem worth it. What a hassle that would be! What's the benefit of doing that to you instead of just making you stay there for one (perhaps shortened) length of time?

#1346

No TIFf, I borrow all the films from my friend who is a member of the academy.

Posted: 2/25/06 at 2:50pm

Well, you lucky Hag.

I got a copy of Transamerica, but that is about it.

Tiff, a lot of it has to do with tax issues - at what point do I have to pay taxes in HK and the US, and the like.

Finding someone to watch my place one month at a time, and take care of the cats is not something I really want to do.

The only person who I might have asked to do it is now clearly not going to be asked.

Don't get me started . . .

Jane--ouch... soak in a tub, light stretching.. oh, you poor dear... are you in a show right now and having to cover scrapes?

I dropped my wallet---literally--out of my back pocket.. ten years ago...dude taps me on the shoulder and totally hoodlum says, "yo, sir, I t'ink you dropped dis" "Oh, uh, Thank you!" "Hey, no prahblem, welcome to New Yawk!"

Tiff--- I can't hire ya.. but I'll tumble for ya!
