The apartment search continues, as today, I finally signed up to join Westside Rentals. Sixty bucks. Now, if that doesn't bag me a nice place to stay... umm... witty hyperbole...
Apologies if I seem a little slow tonight. It was a long day today, good, but taxing nonetheless. The best part was the beginning. We had a tech meeting this morning at 10:00am (which allowed me to catch some extra Zzzz) in CBS Television City.
Pulling in through those gates: magic.
Then, regular office stuff set in. I made some calls, did some research, watched some edits, and now, I'm home. Finally.
Speaking of homes, I'll be house/cat sitting at one of my old Production Coordinators home 'til Saturday... So, if you need me, I'll be there.
In closing, I would like to alert you to this website, which just about sums everything up: When Parents Text

A Belated Christmas Present For You!
...is a new post.
I'm cheap.
Anyways, what has happened since my last post? Oh, that's right. Everything.
Devoted readers of my blog (of which, there are two(ish)) are familiar with this sort of routine. The routine I'm referring to is, of course, the substantial week or two of posting, followed by a long, boring drought. I hope to curb this, I really do, and, in fact, just today I've decided to implement a new system for getting in my hour of writing per day, so, if all goes accordingly, new posts will once again be the fashion of the day... if all goes accordingly.
This blogging thing was much easier in the bygone days of Xanga, no?
The thing is: I bought khakis. Yes, khakis. Granted, they're cool khakis, the kind that say, "I'm vaguely professional, but if there were an impromptu Arcade Fire concert, I still fit the dress code." Still, it concerns me a bit. Though, it is nice to have brown pants instead of always wearing blue pants. Finally, I can wear blue shirts again.
I went to Disneyland whilst on blogging vacation. It was pretty fun. Did all the Disneyland stuff, which, if you've ever been there, you know it's all standard fare. There are rides and sights and whatnot. Hardly worth describing in blog form. Instead, I'll just post pictures.
That's the kind of guy I am.
Two Jeff Bridges movies I have seen in the past week: Tron 2 and True Grit.
The Former: Music, hero's journey, glowing, fights, glowing, Olivia, glowing, Daft Punk, glowing, light jets!!1!, glowing... glowing... gone. Grades --> Story: B- Glowing: A+
The Latter: Violence, subtle humor, humorous violence, Matt Damon, regular violence, funny talking, shocking violence, arguments, kidnapping, snakes... violence --> Story: A Violence: A
Needless to say, I highly recommend both films.

Little Things Fall Into Place...
...and remind me that this is where I'm meant to be. Whether it's for the rest of my life, I don't know for sure, but as for now, I think this was the right move.
Granted, I saw some pictures today on facebook of the first snowfall in Grand Rapids, and I wanted to get on the first flight home. I never thought I'd miss snow... but I do. It's been a part of my Winters since I was five, and now... Well, how am I supposed to drink hot chocolate now?
Apartment hunting trudges on via internet. Now, however, there may be a roommate in the mix.
I miss you Michigan people. I really do. It's lovely out here, and oh so interesting, but it'd me much better if you were here too. Exploring the city, getting caught in traffic, paying too much for gas, and eating mexican food.
It'd be great!
Alas. Forsooth. I met Paula Abdul today.
