Soon after I posted my last entry I watched
Bad Day at Black Rock. It's not really a Western, but because of the setting it really feels like one, it's odd that there are still these little holes the West even in 1945. Such a frightening movie as things begin to unfold and you really start to feel how trapped he is in the little town. But of course Spencer Tracy is a one armed action hero who can get out of anything! Ultimately though it's wits that win. I really liked it. ****.
I got up early to go in and do my paperwork and whatnot at 3 Ball, but when I got there the person who hired me wasn't there yet, and I had to leave shortly afterward anyway. So I took off and got stuck on the 405. Traffic was so slow that it was almost impossible to change lanes to try to get off. I was about a half hour late to set. Other than not having time to eat, it didn't hurt me it all. We were shooting The L-Word up at Yamashiro in the Hollywood Hills. I really want to take my family to dinner there when they visit. I was expecting a long day, but got wrapped early. It worked out well though since I got a text to come hang out with some friends at a bar.
Yesterday I went back for more of the same and was there until 2 a.m. I got up at 7:30 to go to my new job, but just couldn't, besides being tired I was feeling pukey, luckily I didn't actually puke.
So tomorrow I'm actually going to start this job that I'm really not looking forward to.
This whole week has just been very gray. Once I'm up and running with this new job I shouldn't be as reluctant about it. It'll actually be good to have regular work again.
To top that the after math and consequences of the wonderful time I had last thursday night has left me feeling pretty lonely. Hopefully things will turn around soon.
