You Only Live Once....

.....So live it up I say!

Yesterday I got an email from my friend Lisa that said Rob Zombie was filming parts of his next movie H2 here in Atlanta and was looking for extras. All you needed to do was send an email with your phone number, height, size clothes you wear and a few pictures of yourself.

As awesome as I thought it would be to be an extra in the film, my initial reaction was "I'd never get chosen, plus I gotta work". The more I thought about it, the more I figured why not? They worst I could get is no response or a direct no and I could handle both. Doesn't hurt to try (that seems to be a common thought these days!). I have plenty of vacation days ahead of me and what an awesome experience this could be. I've only got one life to live and I'm gonna live it up!

So, I sent in all the info and got a response asking if I had a costume I could wear. Uh, well....let's see.....I have a Strawberry Shortcake costume from my slighty skinnier days (which I would gladly squeeze my honkin' ass into) and I have a huge, obnoxious, ridiculous tangerine prom like dress. Did I mention that it was huge? and tangerine?

When I checked my email this morning I had another email saying I had been chosen to be an extra and they wanted me to wear the dress and to expect an email later this week with all the details. HOW FREAKIN' AWESOME IS THAT!?!?!?!
I can guarantee that if I don't make it onto the big screen, you will most definitely see my dress. I did tell you it was huge and tangerine right? Oh yeah, it has sparkles too! Maybe I'll even wear my rollerskates. Hmmm.

On a totally different subject, but still on the "livin' it up" subject, the ad for our show that will run in Prick is finished! Brandy did such an awesome job on it! She had a lot of info to fit in a small area, but it looks sweet! I can't wait to have a color version of it!
It's crazy how things are movin' right along! Life is good....and WAY freakin' awesome! We're only here for a short time so live life with no regrets. Love your family and friends. Don't let the man bring you down. Good things do not come to those who wait. Good things come to those that get off their asses and go get 'em!

Word!

This whole tryin' to be positive shit ain't workin' today.....or for the past few days as a matter of fact. I'm tired. My mind hasn't absorbed so much learnin' since I was like.....I dunno.....youngish. You know what learnin' overkill does to me? Shuts me down.....fucks me up. All this thinkin' straight at the new job ain't lettin' me think straight anywhere else. I get home and my brain turns to fondue. I'm so, so, so tired. On top of this tired shit, my weekends are PACKED...and now I have no money for these packed weekends. Not only did I take a HUGE pay cut, but Jeremy's job just decided that his position is no longer needed....so.....they've put him back to what he did when he first started workin' there three years ago and MAJORLY cut his pay. MAJORLY. When the fuck does this stop? I've said over and over.....good things come to good people. What'd I do that ain't good????? I even gave that chick standin...

East Atlanta Strut 2010

I've been sewin' my fingers off tryin' to get ready for the East Atlanta Strut . It was the first show I had ever done and it was a BLAST! Bein' used to your standard kinda craft shows, you know the ones.....wood cut into silly stuff, marsh mellow guns, lace and potpourri, you can imagine my excitement when I was accepted to do the Strut, which ain't your mama's craft show. After three years, I've decided to give it a go again. I've really focused on my bears since that's what I really enjoy makin' and it's what everyone seemed to like best. You definitely won't find anything else like 'em out there! They're all sad lookin' and junk.....and people wanna hug 'em when they see 'em. I started sewin' these guys three years ago and after readin' an article in a magazine about a man that went to war, was burned badly while there and came home to his finance, married her and made babies with her despite all his s...
