The Guild Shoot

Today was another Guild shoot.. got more interviews. This was an unusual shoot because we had to do pick ups in Hollywood area then drive to the Valley for the second half of the shoot day. We actually got out pretty early.. well not real early but it was still light outside when I headed home and that's always a good thing. It's sad but the shoots are starting to wind down.. only have a few more to go. I have to start cutting together my special BTS pieces.

Loving Clone Wars

Another fantastic episode of The Clone Wars.. if you're not watching this series you are really missing out on something special. It' s airs Fridays at 9pm on The Cartoon Network.

Doctors Visit

Today I got a response from my Doctor asking me to come in so they could check out this lump.. just to be safe. He was booked but his colleague was available so I went to see him. Of course as I'm driving up they call me and ask if I can come in later as they double booked for my time.. I told them I was parking the car and they said they would figure something out. I waited about 45 minutes in the exam room for Dr. Peters. Luckily I had my ipod and was listening to Harry Potter books so I was a happy camper. Dr. Peters did the exam and of course the bump was gone by then. He checked me out and couldn't find anything wrong. He said it couldn't be a spider bites as those last longer then two days, he said it could be result of an swollen lymph node.. but he said they are not normally up that high.. so we really don't know why I had that lump.. could have been a quick 24 hour infection or some sort. He said I looked fine and since I was feeling better all seemed good.

Voted

Today I voted via mail.. this is the first time I have done it this way and I don't understand why everyone doesn't do it this way. It's super easy and very fast. So I knew who I wanted to vote for and knew another few days were not going to change my mind.. so I sent out my vote today... GO OBAMA!!!!

BTW.. still feeling a bit under the weather and still have the lump on the back of my head.. I emailed my doctor to see if I should come in.. I'll keep you posted.

Cleaning/Website/Feeling Sick

Today I managed to clean up around the house.. the big thing was cleaning up the garage. It's been a mess ever since the wedding and I really wanted to clean it up so I can start working out again.. our equipment is in there. So after Harry took Daisy to the park I jumped on in and cleaned it up fairly quickly.

I also started working on my new website.. it's tough since I really don't know how to use HTML, Dreamweaver and Joomla but I'm learning. I don't think I'll get the new site up and running for a few months.. but how knows...

Towards the evening I wasn't feeling so hot.. had an earache and sore throat and this massive headache. It was coming from the back of my head and when I went to feel back there I had a huge lump. Not sure where that came from, could have been a spider bite, there were lots of webs and I destroying in the garage. Could have something to do with my ear and throat hurting.. not sure.. I'll see if it's better tomorrow as of now it hurts and it's tough to lay down on that side... I'll keep you posted.

1st day off

Today is my first day of my in between job vacation. Not sure if it's going to be one, two, or three weeks.. so I'm enjoying everyday I can. Today I did nothing but sit on the computer and watching TV.. it was a nice way to spend my first day off.

Another Guild Weekend

This weekend was another Guild weekend.. Saturday we were at Felicia house shooting Vork and Zaboo scenes. We ran a bit long and couldn't get everything that was needed. I continued to get great BTS footage. For Sunday we were shooting in Pasadena with several new cast members and Felicia. We also had a SFX make up artist who did some work (I can't say any more :) ). He has worked in the biz for over thirty years and it was very interesting and cool chatting with him. He worked on Voyager seasons 1 - 3 and several of the Star Trek movies , #4, 5, and 6 as well as some of episodes from Enterprise. On Voyager the main person he worked on was Roxanne Dawson who played Bellana Torres. Being a Trekkie geek it was fun listening to all his interesting stories. I could have spent hours talking to him. Anyways Sunday's shoot went really well and we seemed to be ahead of schedule.. so all in all another fun weekend working on The Guild season two. I also started crew and cast interviews..
