The drive was pretty intense. It took about 5 days, and I did it alone. I saw a lot of interesting things, and spent a lot of time alone in hotel rooms. The worst part of the trip was the 12 1/2 hours of straight driving from Tennessee to El Reno, OK ( Read more... )

Jamie and I had an AMAZING vacation in Montreal-- but not before watching Jason Anderson play in the middle of a pitch black field at 11:00pm in Palmer. It was a great experience, with everyone singing along with their own impromptu rhythm parts and harmonies.

I've edited my film. God help me-- I'm pretty happy with it for the time being. That's a rarity for me. Usually, I'm so self conscious of everything that I create that I can' bare to show it to anyone, and the bulk of my material from Emerson holds this to be doubly true.

Can anyone else ( Read more... )

Today, I posed for my senior portrait at Emerson while holding an open book by Dostoevsky and smirking devishly at the camera. The picture was ABSOLUTELY priceless. Just wait 'till it surfaces on some stupid retrospective on VH1 when I'm famous ( Read more... )

Well, I just saw Lisa Loeb in a THONG-- thereby satisfying a fantasy I held when i was like 15 years old. You can probably find the clip from her show on VH1 if you search on mytube.com

uh, yeah.

Wait-- she's 37? wtf???

Cut my hair (pretty short, too) and wore a tie. But, even with those things and an impressive pitch aided by resumes and a script, we still didn't lock the location I wanted for the 35mm. We tried though, we really did. Now what? I don't know exactly...We shoot in less than 9 weeks ( Read more... )
