Update from NoHo:

This month has been wild, I tell ya! Wild!

As soon as I got back from NYC, I fell into a nearly full time fit modeling gig, which is still ongoing (and fantastic). Then booked a hair show with Wella. Work at SOL-LA Music Academy picked up, as we began planning a program of kids theatre presentations (with classical music incorporated) for next year, and I took over for their web designer. Add in rehearsals at UCLA, Hell & Lula returning from the road, and a sketch comedy video shoot, and you have a recipe for no sleep but loads of work-happiness.

I can only hope that this good fortune keeps on rolling. So lucky!

I'm exceptionally stoked for an upcoming video shoot for Hell & Lula's new song "The Quidam." The video concept is radical, and the team we've assembled to make it is unbelievable. I will be at the directing post this time around (yay!), with my buddy Patricio as DP. We're planning to roll into another video fairly soon after, with him in the director's chair; myself as creative/art director.

Action Scotty's in the living room, watching Peter Pan, whilst our other housemates soak in good tunes at Coachella. A part of me longs to be out in the desert with mad good music (and Rusty), but another is very grateful for this quiet day. I'll be out in the desert next weekend, wearing my stylist/MUA hat for a photo shoot with the amazing Justin Bettman & new Ford model, Mallory. So many hats!

Happy Thanksgivin', ya'll. Rusty's next to me on the couch, practicing for the Man in Space show on Saturday night in San Francisco (also, merrily exclaiming "Three thousand and five fans on Facebook! That's more than {insert rival-ish band}! And they opened for {insert band that's only famous cuz of its prettyboy frontman}!). On the adjacent couch, Action Scotty is chillin. Action Scotty hasn't been introduced via blahg before - he's Rusty's brother, a bass player (my favorite kind of person), and has a recurring role on Glee. As the bass player. :)

I spent Monday shootin a student film, where I starred as a jealous girlfriend. Good times! As soon as we wrapped, Rusty, Action Scotty & I hiked it on up to the bay for some fambly time with their parentals and beyond. I am way full of delicious food, and there's a round TWO on Saturday. Their tradition is a "small" gathering on Thursday (this year it was 22 people. Small?), and the "big" celebration is Saturday. Wowzer town.

Anyway, the latter half of my day was (ratherironically) stuffing...envelopes full of my model pics and posting them to modeling agencies.

Off to write more cover letters!

PS Eliza Cummings is my new hero. This makes me feel a bit...well, old...since she's all of 19. Anyway. Dear Universe: Please let me work with that chick.
