Goodbye NY, Hello FL...surprise!

I'm both happy and sad to say that I am no longer in NY and am now in Florida.  Happy because I have missed FL and its always good to come home...Sad because I do miss NY, my NY family and my friends (both old and new)...and then Happy to done with Project Runway and nomad living...but then sad for not finishing out the last few days of the show.

Anyways, I had a Skype interview for an Producer's assistant position with the same company DE works for on the CBS lot.  Now, optimistically hoping I get the job and also playing out my long planned surprise birthday visit for my mom, I cut out on Project Runway about 4 days before wrap so I could spend some time in Florida, surprise mom for her bday and make it back to LA before the producer makes a decision.

I told my co-workers that I had a second interview which is why I was leaving early.  They, though wishing I could stay for one of the most stressful weeks of the production, understood why I needed to leave and wished me well, since it would be a job in scripted TV...which pretty much everyone in TV would like to do.

As it turns out, I do have a second interview on Monday, so it actually wasn't a lie.  But it is perfect timing.  I'll have a few days visiting in Florida and make it back in time for the second/face to face interview...which will hopefully end in a job offer.  God willing.

On another note, on my last day on Project Runway I had a mini conversation with Heidi...that's right, Heidi Klum.  We were both in the bathroom and she was washing her hands when I came out of the stall.  She smiled and said hello to me and I asked her how she was doing.   We talked 'small talk' for a little bit, then I told her I loved her shoes.  She'd worn them before and I loved them then.   We talked about how they are nice to look at and sit but not to walk in...but it was a nice conversation.  About 5 minutes worth of conversation, started by her...then ended by her make-up artist...cool non the less.  She always seemed nice and fun on set...but she was nice and fun with me!

Just because I like them and my friend on the show cleans Heidi's dressing room...here's a picture!


They are Jimmy Choos...at least 6 inches and fabulous!!!

Well...the day is ending and while I don't need to get up and go to work in the morning, I should start to wind down...just because I can.

I press on...
