so hot right now

today, la is hot.

not "hott" in the paris hilton sense, but "hot" as in the "i could throw down some egg and tofu scramble and flash fry it on my driveway because it's effing 110 degrees outside, but instead i'll just go jump in the pool in my backyard since i have a house with a pool in the middle of la" hot. at least i'm not baking in some oven of a warehouse on a sidestreet in east la, all hot and sweaty at a supposed spring break college bar while filming the same dance scene over and over. that was last weekend.

this weekend, i'm moving on to bigger, better things. monday, i'm going to get fitted for a backround role that actually requires a costume, as opposed to my own personal thinning threads. i'm still a background actor, but i think i found the doorway leading to my own sag card, a recent topic of much discussion. yesterday, i found out that the minute 30 second audition over at the disney studio campus in burbank two weeks ago succeeded. sometime in the near future i may be brandishing a sword in the direction of johnny depp and his gang of unlikely misfits widely known as the pirates of the caribbean. maybe i'll get a pistol. i'm not sure what gentlemen in the british navy would use against those goulish enemies. i have yet to see pirates 2, so i have very little point of reference for this gig.

all i know is that, due to this forthcoming work, i will walk away with sag membership and--just as importantly--a tummy filled only the finest delicacies offered at the sag craft table.
