Back into a groove...

I've been back on the west coast for about a week now and I guess I'm getting back into some sort of groove.  I've finished a couple of scripts, working on some TV spec scripts and am prayerful that I will be receiving in the next few weeks, a call from Disney/ABC.

Tomorrow will be my first day back at my internship, so hopefully I'll have some fun projects to work on...but not so fun that I have to stay a long time beyond my actual quitting time...I got free passes to see The TOWER HEIST, coming out this weekend.

This past weekend, was a festive one.  Now, I'm not one really for celebrating Halloween, but I did go to some activities because ti was an opportunity to get out of the house and hang out with friends and meet some new people.

Friday I went to the Tonight Show, with Jay Leno, and it was pretty fun.  Adam Sandler was the main guest and he seemed really cool and down to earth...as did Jay Leno.  The other guest was the guy Kardashian that is on Dancing with the Stars.  He could've walked by me on the street and I wouldn't have known who he was.  His mother was there and the audience seemed very star struck over her...she looks kinda fake to me.   So that was fun, though I have to admit, not quite as fun as the Ellen Show.

Friday night I went to my first Haunted Hay Ride ever, and it was fun.  Apparently it's a big deal here, and so we spent about an hour and a half waiting in line.  ('We' being, Delaware, and some of her friends.)  The atmosphere was...weird and creepy. There was a stilt walker there dressed in a 'pseudo-black swan' get up and he was hiding behind trees and in the shadows jumping out and scaring people.  He got me once or twice, but his costume was very well done and he was really skilled on the stilts, so I kinda couldn't stop looking at him.   The hay ride was fun/entertaining...but I've been sneezing ever since, so...

Saturday there was a free 'fair' near my house that one of my friends, who's a Stunt Woman, was performing in.  It was a 'Stuntacular' and they were taking donations for the Make a Wish Foundation.  So I went to that, and it was cute...the show was geared towards kids and it was free, (minus donations for the fund) and close to the house...so it was not a waste of my time.

Sunday, Delaware (and some of her friends) and I went to Disney's El Capitan Theater (which is on Hollywood Blvd, across from the Kodak theater and only shows Disney movies) to see a 4D screening of the Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas.  I'd seen the movie a million times before, but not here and not in 4D.  What is 4D you ask?  It basically just brings another dimension to the screening...so for instance, when the lights went down/up in the movie, they went down/up in the theater...when there was fog in the movie, there was fog in the theater...when it snowed in the movie, it snowed in the theater...you get the idea.

Hopefully tomorrow will bring new stories to share, new adventures to experience, and a fresh new set of joys to revel in...till then...
