my jobs have been pretty exciting the past couple of days. friday was a day spent with erin andrews (espn girl) and evan lysacek (olympic gold metalist) for a media tour promoting dancing with the stars. it was a lot of fun but pretty SUCKY that my call time was, yes...4 am. i was literally putting my shoes on to walk out the door as my roomies were coming in from a night out. fun... not. i felt like i was a moonlighter working the night shift. anyway, that was an eventful morning. the positive there was that i was finished working by 10 am! full day ahead folkssss. yesterday, my saturday, was packed. started in the morning with a photo shoot with the cast of GLEE for Emmy magazine and stayed there for about 5 hours before i headed to a celebrity benefit/gala. it was a fundraiser for an elementary school in north hollywood. get this.... huge event, over 750 people/parents invited, put together and produced by one of the producers of ''Friends''- Marta Kauffmann, and involving Steve & Nancy Carell, Jason Alexander (Seinfeld), Breckin Meyer (Road Trip), Eric McCormack (Will&Grace), Kathy Najimy (Hocus Pocus), etc... so, naturally, they hired a team of hairstylists and makeup artists??....ONLY IN LA. the whole time i was trying my hardest to imagine such a huge event happening in honor of my elementary school in clinton, tn.... it was nearly impossible to think up. i mean, i guess i can sort of, vaguely remember similar experiences in the cafeteria with, from what i recall, chilli suppers and drawings for free mcdonalds and pizza hut coupons. yeah, not so much parallel to the 'GALA'... anyway, very neat. got to meet lotttts of interesting (some unpleasant) people that just reconfirmed that, we are all just normal people. regardless of our 'status' or lack thereof.
may i add.... i purchased (and had to go to great lengths to achieve bc of ATM issues) the most amazzzzing handmade, 3D embroidered portrait today at the swap meet. i'm serious when i say, AMAZING. that's probably an understatement. to forever have reference to my gypsy inspired life, i will hang this on my wall, wherever i reside, forever and evaaaaa. picture to come.....
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY SWEET MOMMA TODAY!
